Initially came the 2016 XC90 hybrid, then the 2017 S90 vehicle, and now the 2017 V90 wagon—Volvo's top rack is authoritatively full.
Maybe the most attractive of the 90-arrangement part, all of which are based on Volvo's Versatile Item Engineering (SPA), the V90 could be viewed as the world's most exquisite station wagon—and one that proceeds with Volvo's 60-year legacy in the wagon portion.
What's more, best of all, it's coming here.
Since we have a full supplement of authority photographs from Volvo, including inside and point of interest shots, it's reasonable the V90 is flawless, from its inward grille to its slyly angled backside.
From the B-column forward, there's nothing we haven't seen before on the S90, yet the V90's long, unashamedly wagon-y raise outwardly offsets its long hood in ways the S90's inclining profile can't, and we adore how the taillamps crisscross from the tag outline and up the D-column to the rooftop.
Obviously, the V90's inside shows up for all intents and purposes indistinguishable to that of the S90, and we're thoroughly alright with that.
Appeared in extravagant "Engraving" shape, the V90's lodge is as spotless and as stylishly Swedish as can be, with the inside's centerpiece being the same vast, representation introduction infotainment screen we've come to value every time we drive the XC90.
Clever points of interest incorporate the calculated grain wood trim, the grilles for the Thickets and Wilkins speakers, and the different knurled handles and switches.
Couple of specifics were discharged about the components and powertrain mixes that will make it into U.S.- bound V90s, yet we anticipate that the auto will take after the S90's general project.
The reasonable base motor is a turbocharged 2.0-liter T5 four-barrel that we hope to make something near the 240 drive and 258 lb-ft of torque the same motor places out in the current S60/V60.
The following rung up would be the turbocharged and supercharged 2.0-liter T6 motor turning out exactly 316 strength and 295 lb-ft. What's more, since Volvo is holding nothing back with its Twin Motor charge program, you can wager your base krona that sooner or later, the T8 Twin Motor module half and half powertrain in the long run will show up, making some place around 410 pull while giving the auto an all-electric scope of 30 miles or somewhere in the vicinity.
All-wheel drive might be standard all through the reach, despite the fact that the T5 may likewise be accessible with front-drive in base structure. An elite Polestar model remains a titillating plausibility.
The V90 will pack Volvo's semi-self-ruling Pilot Help innovation from the processing plant, as does the S90.
We expect that it'll accompany the Swedish automaker's great program of dynamic and latent driver-help highlights, as well, including stopping help, 360-degree cameras, dynamic high-pillars, crash relief, substantial creature location, and that's only the tip of the iceberg.
While the V90 is unquestionably going to the U.S. market in some cycle, the waiting inquiry is whether it will be offered as a raised "Crosscountry" model, the smooth structure you see here, or both.
Our trust is that Volvo doesn't give us just a butched-up adaptation, however we'll take new wagons any way we can get them.
There's the ideal opportunity for Volvo to choose: The S90 lands here this late spring, yet the V90 isn't slated to touch base until some point in 2017.
