All-new 2015 Volvo XC90 revealed
Twelve years after it first went on sale, the original Volvo XC90 is finally being replaced. The new model – which arrives in May 2015 – offers seven seats, some innovative powertrains and numerous safety features.
To go with the technical changes, the styling has received a major revamp too. This is most obvious at the front end where there’s a larger, more prominent grille. It’s flanked by slimmer headlights that incorporate distinctive T-shaped daytime running lights.

Along the flanks, the shoulder line is less bulbous than before and the surfacing is generally tauter. Moving to the rear, the XC90 is defined by elongated light clusters that stretch up into the D-pillars.
On the inside, the themes adopted are luxury and simplicity. Leather upholsteries and wood trims create the right ambience, while more space is promised for those travelling in the second and third rows of seats. Dominating the dashboard is a central touchscreen control panel that has significantly reduced button clutter.
Although full specifications have yet to be published, the highlights of the engine line-up are likely to be the 2.0 litre four-cylinder petrol units. Boasting both a supercharger and a turbocharger, they also come paired with an electric motor for enhanced economy and reduced emissions.
In the UK, orders for the 2015 XC90 can be placed from October onwards. Prices will start from around £45,000.
