Volvo says it has ‘a very strong offer’ as new V90 unveiled

THE new Volvo V90 was unveiled today in Stockholm, Sweden.

The car is the latest in the manufacturer’s top-of-the-line 90 series, sitting alongside the award-winning XC90 SUV and the recently-launched S90 premium saloon.

Building on Volvo Cars’ heritage in the estate segment, the carmaker says the new V90 takes the premium estate a step forward in terms of aesthetics, materials and finish, while still being extremely practical.

The new V90 is the third car unveiled in Volvo’s top-of-the-line 90 series, all of which are built on the company’s specially designed and fully modular Scalable Product Architecture (SPA), which has opened up a range of new opportunities in terms of how Volvos can be designed, built and equipped.

 

It is equipped with Pilot Assist semi-autonomous drive technology; a highly advanced standard safety package; and class-leading connectivity, including smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay.

Dr Peter Mertens, senior vice president of research and development at Volvo Cars, said: ‘We have a very strong offer in the V90.

‘Our PowerPulse technology is designed to deliver a distinct performance boost to our diesel engine, while the T8 Twin Engine petrol plug-in hybrid will deliver around 410 hp and a pure electric range of around 31 miles.’
