Because of the higher ground clearance, Volvo S80 can perform better on bad roads - it can go over higher obstacles and bumps. At the same time, the higher ground clearance can reduce stability and handling on paved roads, especially at higher speeds. Note, however, that this Volvo S80 version does not have 4x4 drive, which is very important in poor road conditions. Choose from two 4x4 versions of Volvo S80 2013 if off-road driveability is important to you.
