    The Volvo V90 Cross Country, the Ultimate Alternative to SUVs

    The Volvo V90 Cross Country, the Ultimate Alternative to SUVs 

    If you are one of those drivers who just love the dynamic driving experience of a low-profile vehicle, but find that the call of the SUV makes you hesitate, we have the perfect alternative for you: the Volvo V90 Cross Country Wagon.  

    Discover this amazing alternative to SUVs, that combines space, capability, safety and luxury for the entire family. 


    Roomy and Spacious 

    One of the most important features of any SUV is the family factor. This means loads of space for all passengers, children and adults alike. And let’s not forget cargo space, which is also essential for all families. 

    And if you think a wagon, or station wagon, offers less space than a utility vehicle, think again! Take a look at how it compares to the largest SUV in the lineup, the Volvo XC90:

    N/A 

    1,008 L 

    Lowered 2nd row 

    1,954 L 

    1,814 L 

    Naturally, everything comes down to your needs, but in terms of cargo volume, this car easily rivals any of the giant utility vehicles!  

     

    Powertrain and Capabilities 

    People who turn to SUVs often do so because they want better traction on rougher roads or snowier terrain. The Cross Country does just that and includes standard all-wheel drive and hill descent control system. Additionally, its wheels range from 19 to 21 inches to maximize the car’s grip to any road. 

    Pop the hood and you’ll find the B6 hybrid powertrain, which boasts a 2.0 L 4-cylinder engine and a small electric motor, coupled with an 8-speed GeartronicTM automatic transmission. The car delivers a whopping 295 combined horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. 

    For road warriors and outdoor enthusiasts, towability is an important consideration. The V90 Cross Country also distinguishes itself in this regard, capable of towing nearly 3,500 lb of cargo, more than many compact SUVs out there. 

     

    Safety Is Always a Priority at Volvo 

    Automotive journalist Benoît Charette underlines the importance placed on driver safety, by the Swedish automaker:  

    “The core segment of Volvo buyers are very often loyal drivers because safety has always been the brand’s main focus.” 

    No surprise there. The 2022 Volvo V90 certainly doesn’t skimp on driver assistance safety features, including but not limited to: 

    • Front and rear park assist system 
    • Lane departure warning 
    • Traffic signal information 
    • Reverse traffic alert 
    • Pilot Assist system 
    • Adaptive cruise control 

    In addition, all information and data are clearly displayed on a customizable, next generation 12-inch driver’s station. With Volvo, your family’s safety is in good hands. 

     

    A Luxurious Interior with Plenty of Options 

    The Volvo V90 Cross Country is a luxury car, and that’s clearly evident in the interior, which is trimmed in Grey Ash and fitted with leather or even nappa leather seats. Standard Comfort front seats can be upgraded with the following options: 

    • Side bolsters 
    • Seat extensions 
    • Ventilation in the seat and backrest 
    • Massage function in the backrest 

    There’s no shortage of infotainment technology either, as the vehicle connects you to Bluetooth and Google Services and lets you charge your phone on the wireless charging tray. The peak performance hi-fi sound system, meanwhile, is sure to please audiophiles, with its whopping 10 speakers. 

    Bottom line, if you’re looking for a fun-to-drive vehicle that looks a little more economical, yet has all the qualities of an SUV, you won’t go wrong with the Volvo V90 Cross Country 2022. Check out the features for yourself:
