There’s more to life than a Volvo. There’s getting where you
want to go. There’s getting there in style and comfort. There’s
power, agility and unrestricted pleasure. And there’s desire.
Desire to enjoy the best and desire to share this with those
you love, no matter where your journey takes you. That’s why
you should take a closer look at the XC90.

The XC90 wouldn’t be the superb SUV it is without a little muscle.
But the application of power without discrimination has never been
our business, and here, you’ll find no exceptions. Amongst a wealth of
outstanding performance enhancing technology you’ll find features such
as AWD with Instant Traction and six-speed Geartronic transmission
with a winter setting.
Harmonising power with subtlety can be a bridge too far for many
SUV’s. But with one depression of the accelerator pedal on an XC90,
you’ll feel equal parts muscle and grace and instantly enjoy what is
surely one of nature’s most potent combinations.
The subtle application
of pure strength.

As you settle back into the sumptuous leather interior, let the waves
of music from the Premium Sound music system wash over you and
feel the confident, quiet purr of a masterful V8 engine, we suggest you
try this short mental exercise.
Look around you. Feel the contentment from your companions. Take a
deep breath. Then try to remember what you once called expectations.
Expect more and that’s
exactly what you’ll get.

Why do the most profound experiences leave the deepest impression?
Take the interior of the XC90. No matter what the world outside is doing,
you, your friends or your family will be enveloped in an environment
that is as calm and understated as it is luxurious. No surprise there
really. This SUV was created for people who are dedicated to pleasure
– and to sharing it. The only downside is that you’ll occasionally have
to leave your XC90. But don’t worry. Experience this exceptional SUV
once and it will never leave you.
You can leave it, but it will
never leave you.

There are no second-class seats in the Volvo XC90. Painstaking
craftsmanship and superior materials ensure that comfort and safety
rule – from bumper to bumper. From its Interior Air Quality System to a
child-friendly booster cushion, nothing and no-one has been forgotten
in the pursuit of pure satisfaction. And like many of the good things in
life, the Volvo XC90 was made to be shared. Now it’s over to you.
Something this good was
always meant to be shared.

Every one of the seven seats in the Volvo XC90 offers much more
than superb comfort. They can also be configured in 64 different ways.
Add the fact that every passenger seat can be folded flush and you
have the perfect marriage of versatility and luxury. Loading is an easy
job too – just open the liftgate section of the split tailgate for lighter
objects or let both sections open wide for heavier loads.
64 expressions
of versatility.
