2023 Volvo XC90
Overview
The 2023 Volvo XC90 not only stands as the storied marque’s flagship SUV, but it’s also the only 3-row SUV currently in its varied portfolio. The XC90 prioritizes comfort and safety, culminating in a pleasant and exceptionally safe experience for the driver and passengers alike. The XC90 carries its design cues well, including the distinctive “Thor’s Hammer” headlight treatment that can be found on most, if not all Volvo vehicles throughout the entire lineup.
The Perfect Ride For…
The driver who cherishes both style and substance. The Volvo XC90 offers both in spades with a blend of modern comfort and utility, not to mention the iconic Scandinavian design influence that can be seen throughout the vehicle. When it comes to the interior, the XC90 takes a minimalist approach in its design. You’ll find a wealth of premium materials throughout the cabin, including genuine wood, metal, and crystal.
Drive and Handling
Like its siblings, the 2023 XC90 boasts the latest in Volvo’s electrified drivetrain technology. The gas-powered variant of the XC90 features a 48-volt mild hybrid system that provides optimal fuel economy while also giving the large SUV a welcome boost in overall performance. The standard 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine delivers up to 250 horsepower, giving you ample power to merge onto highways without breaking a sweat. A turbocharged and supercharged variant of this same engine delivers an impressive 300 horsepower without sacrificing efficiency. The Recharge model lets you drive up to 45 miles on its 18.8-kilowatt-hour battery pack, which makes it a bit easier to pass up the gas pumps and makes those morning fill-ups at the pump a bit less painful. Each drivetrain option is paired with all-wheel drive for better capability, with power routed through all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission.
The Recharge version’s One Pedal Drive feature simplifies part of the driving experience, whether you’re crawling along in heavy traffic or sliding smoothly on the empty blacktop. With this feature, drivers can lift their foot from the accelerator pedal to slow the vehicle down instead of coasting. As expected, the XC90 also comes with many of the safety and driver assist features no SUV should be without. These include the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems platform, offering an array of sensors, radars and cameras to aid in automatic braking, collision avoidance and other must-have driver support systems.
Key Features
Next-Gen Infotainment
You’ll find an assortment of advanced infotainment features in the 2023 Volvo XC90, including an intuitive touch screen display giving you full access to your favorite apps. The available Digital Services package puts Google apps and services, including hands-free Google Assistant and Google Maps, right at your fingertips. Future over-the-air software updates ensure that you’ll always have the most up-to-date infotainment features available throughout the life of the vehicle.
Unique Upholstery
XC90 Recharge models come equipped with an exclusive Tailored Wool Blend upholstery. Made from a distinct blend of 70 percent polyester and 30 percent responsibly harvested wool, this unique upholstery option blends impressive prestige with sustainable comfort. The upholstery treatment also features contrasting white piping to give it more visual pizazz, helping it stand out from the usual interior options.
Air Purification
The XC90 features an advanced air purification system that keeps the cabin air fresh for all occupants. This system blocks up to 95 percent of hazardous PM 2.5 particles from entering the cabin, thus promoting better indoor air quality on any journey. Those with seasonal allergies or respiratory issues will certainly appreciate this innovative feature.
