Introduction to family sedans
Although SUVs hold a significant share of the automotive market, family sedans still have an undeniable appeal. The 2022 Volvo V90 is a perfect example, skillfully blending practicality with a touch of luxury that will charm enthusiasts.
Explore the performance, design, capabilities, and innovative technologies of the V90 in detail. Discover what makes this model so special.
Choosing the Volvo V90 Cross Country
If you're undecided about which Volvo model to choose, the Volvo V90, a sedan designed for families, could very well meet your expectations. According to Dustin Woods, a recognized expert at AutoTrader:
"The elevated ground clearance of the Cross Country allows its suspension to effectively absorb bumps, ensuring an incredibly smooth and pleasant ride. The steering is light and predictable."
The V90 excels at merging the low, sporty stance of a traditional sedan with the robust, elevated posture of an SUV or crossover. This compromise not only enhances driving pleasure due to its lower center of gravity but also makes the vehicle capable on more challenging terrains thanks to its 204 mm ground clearance.
Currently, the V90 is available in a single version: the Volvo V90 Cross Country. This adventurous iteration is equipped with several notable features, such as:
- An off-road mode for tough terrains.
- Hill descent control for better mastery.
- All-wheel drive for enhanced stability.
- Wheels ranging from 19 to 21 inches, combining style and functionality.
Performance and motorization
The engine performance plays a pivotal role in the driving enjoyment of the V90. Equipped with a B6 engine, which combines a 4-cylinder turbo with a mild hybrid system, the V90 develops a power of 295 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. This powertrain is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, the renowned Geartronic, ensuring smooth and responsive driving.
Technology and comfort
The Volvo V90 Cross Country does not skimp on comfort and technology. It features an intuitive navigation system, a head-up display, and a suite of advanced safety features, including pedestrian detection, emergency brake assist, and blind spot monitoring.
The interior is a haven of peace, with ergonomic leather seats, ambient lighting, and a premium audio system. These elements are designed to make every journey as enjoyable and relaxing as possible.
Design and style
The design of the Volvo V90 Cross Country exudes Scandinavian elegance. With its sleek lines and robust appearance, it turns heads both in the city and on country roads. The interior is equally impressive, with meticulous attention to detail and the quality of materials used.
The V90 from Volvo: The capabilities that keep on giving

A luxurious design
Although drivability and the practical aspect are the main qualities of the V90, its luxury is to the standards of Volvo cars.
For the interior, you have the choice between leather upholstery and leather trim, or the even more sumptuous Nappa leather. This option adds many additional comfort characteristics, including:
- Ventilated front seats
- Massage function
- Lumbar support adjustable in 4 directions
- Temperature control in 4 places
As for the finishing, slant oak or gray ash as well as hints of aluminum add prestige to the interior. Other details, like the hand-sewn gear-shift lever, contribute to a global sense of luxury. A motorized sunroof gives off a bright and natural feel to the passenger compartment.
The V90’s exterior is also remarkable, with its straight lines and smooth design. The dynamic wheels, the inverted T-shaped LED headlights as well as the grille with black bars add character to the sedan’s look.
Integrated Google technology
For a simplified use of its infotainment system, the 2022 Volvo V90 has integrated functions known to all: Google products. Navigate with Google Maps, add your apps with Google Play and get information with the help of Google Assistant’s voice commands.
