This mid-cycle refresh maintains the XC90’s recognizable design while incorporating subtle enhancements. The front features a redesigned grille that blends seamlessly with updated “Thor’s Hammer” LED headlights, creating a modern and dynamic appearance. A revised lower bumper with a wider intake and vertical side vents adds a sportier look. The side profile retains its familiar shape but gains new trim accents and dual-tone multi-spoke wheels for a contemporary touch. The rear design remains largely unchanged, preserving Volvo’s distinctive styling.
The interior has been significantly upgraded for improved functionality and comfort. A new 11.2-inch floating touchscreen dominates the dashboard, complemented by a three-spoke steering wheel and a row of physical buttons below the display for easy access to key functions. Refinements to the air vents, storage layout, and infotainment system enhance the overall user experience. The XC90 now offers a six-seat configuration with individual second-row seats, alongside the existing five- and seven-seat options, prioritizing passenger comfort.
Powertrain options include a 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine and a T8 plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). The gasoline engine is available in B5 and B6 variants, producing 184 kW and 220 kW, respectively. The T8 PHEV delivers a combined 335 kW and achieves an 84-kilometer electric range under the CLTC standard, catering to diverse buyer preferences.
The updated XC90 reflects Volvo’s commitment to combining refined design, advanced technology, and versatile powertrains to meet the needs of Chinese consumers. The limited-time pricing offer further strengthens its appeal in the competitive luxury SUV market, positioning the XC90 as a compelling choice for buyers seeking style, comfort, and efficiency.
