Description:
The Volvo XC90 is the large scale offering of Volvo’s available SUVs and crossovers, and comes in 6 pre-packaged models. The models are split into variations of 2 groups: 3 variations of the base 3.2 litre, all-wheel drive (AWD) (3.2 AWD, 3.2 AWD Premier Plus, 3.2 R-Design) and the 3.2 litre, all-wheel drive (AWD) R-Design which has a sport-tuned suspension (3.2 R-Design, 3.2 R-Design Premier Plus, 3.2 R-Design Platinum). All models come equipped with the same 3.2 litre, 6-cylinder 240 horsepower (hp) engine, that produces 236 pound-feet (lb.-ft.) of torque, and can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 9.5 seconds. Differences between models in each group are found in the equipment and accessories that are added to them, based on a sliding scale, with more standard features included with Premier Plus and Platinum than Premier models (e.g. the 3.2 Premier Plus and Platinum come with Active Dual Xenon Headlights, whereas the 3.2 does not). Feature highlights include City Safety collision avoidance technology (for automated monitoring and braking at speeds up to 30 km/h), a Laminated Panoramic Roof, and Air Quality System that monitors and filters incoming cabin air for a range of air-borne toxins.
