Review and specifications
2024 Volvo V90
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. The 316-hp supercharged and turbocharged T6 pulls strongly, but acceleration falls below class expectations. 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. Volvo's Drive Assist system offers a suite of advanced driver assistance features. Blind spot warning and rear cross traffic warning were made standard beginning in 2018. For 2022, the only version available is the Cross Country. For 2025, the Ultimate trim has been renamed Ultra. The plug-in hybrid was discontinued.

Brand context
About Volvo
Other brands have caught up, but Volvo maintains its deserved reputation for safety innovation and quality fit and finish. Volvos also stand out for its attractive exterior styling and for having some of the nicest interiors in the industry, with especially comfortable seats. The brand’s XC line of SUVs range from compact and two-row to midsized and three-row. Volvo also sells sedans and station wagons, along with several EVs, ranging from small to large. Most of Volvo’s new cars scored average or below-average in our reliability rankings, and the infotainment systems on many models are less intuitive than what you’ll find in competitors’ cars. Our testers have also found that Volvos aren’t great at absorbing bumps, and have average fuel economy. Among used Volvos, some models have proven to be reliable enough to earn our recommendation.
