For those that remember the huge appeal of classic Volvo station wagons like the 240 Series, the new V90 Cross Country is for you.

It shares the Scalable Product Architecture with the rest of the 90 series. With all-wheel drive, it has higher ground clearance to match. A stout 8-point-3, a little over 2-inches higher than the front-drive V90, but about an inch-and-a quarter lower than the XC90 utility.  In the U.S…. Volvo’s Chinese built 316 horse power T6 supercharged and turbocharged 4-cylinder is matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission.

GARICK ZIKAN: “The Volvo V90 cross country is designed to handle a variety of road conditions, and you really see what it’s capable of off road.  sure, you’re aware of the rough environment… but you don’t sacrifice comfort.”

JOHN DAVIS: All of the vehicles in Volvo’s 90 series have similar styling cues, like the Thor’s hammer headlights and concave grilles with detail differences.

Inside, is all Swedish modern luxury. Volvo’s Sensus System is accessed with a 9-inch infotainment screen that’s oriented like a smart phone. City Safety Technology is standard on all Volvo’s. The 2017 Volvo V90 Cross Country is on sale now starting just over $55,000.
