What is the world coming to when a station wagon is considered for the Robb Report Car of the Year? Well, it means the world is a much more interesting place, because this new 222-hp, front wheel driver is not your average station wagon. With an abundance of safety features and an impressive turbocharged, 2.3 liter, 5-cylinder engine, the $30,000 850 Turbo Wagon made believers out of our judges.
Comments:
"The 850 Turbo Wagon puts so much meaningful motoring life into a station wagon format that it is hard to imagine an auto enthusiast who wouldn't love this car." - Christopher Jensen
"Volvo's 850 Turbo Wagon is far and away the sportiest, quickest vehicle of its type on the planet. In the Turbo Wagon you can creep up beside unsuspecting saps on a curvy road and flat blow them away." - Ken Gross
"Wow! If Volvo's 850 is an indication of what station wagons can do, then give me more." - John McElroy
"This car is the definition of a sports wagon. You may not realize you are in a vehicle capable of hauling seven passengers until you see all the stunned faces staring back at you in the rearview mirror." -John Davis
