2017 Model Redesign Year

The V90 Cross Country falls short of the refinement expected of a midsized luxury car because of its stiff ride and gruff-sounding engine.
The four-cylinder supercharged and turbocharged engine pulls strongly, but acceleration falls below class expectations; we measured just 23 mpg overall on the similar (and now discontinued) S90 sedan.
The lone transmission is an 8-speed automatic.
This raised wagon has decent ground clearance.
Handling is sound but ordinary.
The roomy cabin is gorgeous, with supportive seats, but the touchscreen infotainment system proves to be frustrating to use.
FCW, and AEB with pedestrian detection are standard.
Volvo's Pilot Assist system, which combines steering assistance and adaptive cruise control, is standard.

The V90 is the wagon version of the new S90 sedan.
In our tests, we found the S90 falls short of the refinement expected of a midsized luxury sedan, thanks to the stiff ride and gruff-sounding engine.

We measured 23 mpg overall on the T6.
The base T5 version uses a 250-hp turbocharged four-cylinder.
Handling is sound but ordinary.
The all-wheel-drive Cross Country version has additional ground clearance.
The roomy cabin is gorgeous, with supportive seats, but the iPad-like touch screen proves frustrating to use.
Forward collision warning with automatic braking, including pedestrian and large animal detection, is standard.
