The XC90 is a luxury SUV shaped by Scandinavian sophistication. Bold yet elegant, it radiates refined strength.

The interior of the XC90 surrounds you with modern Swedish luxury. Uncluttered design creates a feeling of calm. Beautiful details such as the exclusive metal-finish air vents and, on certain variants, a crystal gear selector delight the senses.

Many of the functions in the XC90 are controlled through the large central touch screen. Sleek and responsive, it has clear graphics and a portrait format that makes reading information and maps easy. The 9-inch touch screen is so responsive you can use it wearing gloves.

The range-topping optional Bowers & Wilkins audio was developed hand-in-hand with the XC90, so the sound you hear fits the interior perfectly, working with the car's internal acoustics to deliver clarity and realism. The 19 speakers include a unique subwoofer that draws air in from outside the car to create deep, rich bass and a dash-mounted tweeter that faces into the cabin to minimise acoustic reflection.

Three room modes – including Gothenburg Concert Hall – allow you to adapt the sound to your music or mood, while stainless steel speaker grilles and distinctive yellow speaker cones make this an audio system that looks as good as it sounds.

Refined and relaxing, the XC90 offers first-class comfort however long the journey. Double wishbone front suspension and our innovative integral link rear axle ensure that the XC90 responds precisely and rides smoothly.

XC90 is available with optional air suspension including Four-C chassis. The air suspension helps keep all four wheels at the same height, which can be adjusted to suit different driving conditions. Four-C is an electronically-controlled damping system that replaces traditional dampers, continually adapting to the road conditions and driving style in order to provide the best balance between comfort and control.

The interior of the XC90 is as practical as it is beautiful. Each backrest folds flat, so you have complete flexibility whether you're carrying passengers or cargo. Details such as shopping bag hooks and securing straps stop your bags from sliding around, while eyelets in the floor and a cargo net help secure larger items.

The XC90 uses a range of advanced powertrains that give you maximum performance and minimal environmental impact.

Pilot Assist makes driving in heavy traffic less tiring. As well as keeping your XC90 at a set speed and distance to the vehicle in front of you, it gently steers to keep you in the centre of the lane and provides a gentle vibration through the steering wheel to let you know that the technology is active. Pilot Assist works at speeds up to 130km/h and is particularly helpful in highway conditions.

Park Assist Pilot helps you park perfectly, every time. It uses sensors to gauge the size of spaces as you drive by them, and lets you know if one is big enough. It can then steer the car into a parallel space just 1.2 times the length of the car – all you need to do is operate the gears and brake according to the screen prompts. Your XC90 will do the rest. Cross Traffic Alert helps you reverse out of a parking space with increased awareness by warning you of potential road users directly behind you.

City Safety helps to protect people inside and outside the car, day or night. This innovation – which is standard for every XC90 – identifies potential hazards such as other vehicles, cyclists, pedestrians and large animals ahead. It warns you if it detects an imminent collision and, if you don't react in time, can automatically apply the brakes to help avoid or mitigate a collision. It also includes Steering Support, which helps you to steer away from danger as effectively and safely as possible.

Safety is at the heart of the XC90. Ultra high-strength boron steel – one of the strongest types available – forms a rigid safety cell around the car's occupants. Safety belt pre-tensioners and load limiters keep the belts in just the right state of tension while not exerting too much pressure on the body.

Get more from your XC90 with our useful accessories. An electrically operated towbar slides under the car when not in use. A steel grille provides a sturdy barrier between passenger and load compartments. Add a load compartment divider and a dog gate for safe and secure pet travel. Other accessories are available that are designed to help protect both the seats and load compartment to keep them looking like new.
