Like its siblings S90 and V90, the XC90 carries the proud and confident face of Volvo’s design language, along with classic Volvo styling cues. Key features include the iconic “Thor’s Hammer” LED headlight design and the Volvo wordmark on the rear. The car’s exterior design was upgraded for the 2020 model year with new wheels, exterior colours and a modern new grill, among other details.
Inside the cabin, the XC90 provides a calm and balanced environment with a blend of high-end materials such as wood, crystal and metal in a sophisticated Scandinavian design. The XC90 can be ordered with a range of different seating configurations, from the seven-seat family SUV to a brand new six-seat configuration. New interior materials including a wool blend offer further options for personalization.
Even when traveling with friends and family, a little elbow room is welcome. In the XC90 SUV, seven people ride in true comfort and safety from the shortest cross-town journey to the holiday road trip.
With the open-and-tilt panoramic roof, you can blur the lines between the great outdoors and the cabin and enjoy fresh air and open skies. The 7 and 6 seat XC90 SUV has two individual seats in the third row. Everyone (not just the little ones) up to 170 cm travels comfortably with their own air conditioning, storage spaces and personal cupholder.
Exceptionally fine Nappa leather adds even more attention to detail for a luxuriously soft and relaxed feel for everyone. With seat ventilation and ten-point massage for your back, Nappa leather front seats make every trip a pleasure and help you reach your destination in great shape.
The advanced air cleaner in our world-first air quality system prevents up to 95 per cent of hazardous PM 2.5 particles from entering the cabin.
Connectivity and infotainment
All new Volvos are now connected, thanks to an intuitive touch screen interface that combines car functions, navigation, connected services and in-car entertainment applications such as Spotify, Pandora, Baidu or TuneIn. The portrait-oriented touch screen enables easy and fast access to a host of functions and features. Smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is also available.
Powertrain technology
The XC90 is powered by Volvo’s Drive-E powertrains, including gas and a T8 Twin Engine AWD petrol plug-in hybrid that delivers as much as 407hp.
Volvo’s Twin Engine plug-in hybrid delivers all the benefits of a high performance, low emission petrol engine with an electric motor that delivers power on demand with ultralow CO2 emissions and more than 40 km of pure electric range. The company’s mild hybrid technology, meanwhile, offers drivers up to 15 per cent fuel savings and emission reductions in real world driving.
Safety and driver assistance
Volvo’s leadership in the field of automotive safety is confirmed in the XC90. The SPA platform has resulted in the strongest Volvo cars to date because of the extensive use of boron steel, as well as numerous safety systems designed to protect people inside and outside the car.
Volvo’s City Safety technology, standard on all Volvo models, combines automatic braking functionality and collision avoidance systems to cover a range of potential accident scenarios and help keep you safe. City Safety is the only system on the market that detects pedestrians, cyclists and large animals such as moose and deer.
The Pilot Assist driver assistance system works up to 130 km/h on clearly marked roads.
