Volvo S90

Introduction

Volvo Car India has launched the 2022 iteration of the S90. While the luxury sedan looks pretty much the same on the outside, it’s the new petrol+hybrid powertrain and latest tech that makes the S90 more competent to the modern-day sedans.

Exterior

With the update, the refreshed S90 gets a slightly tweaked front grille with prominent vertical chrome ribs that are further accentuated by the chrome strips at the bottom of both the bumpers. The bumpers itself have been redesigned and now get body-coloured elements. Lastly, the hidden tail pipes gives the luxury sedan a sophisticated and clean look.

Interior

The 2022 S90 gets a 360-degree camera, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot detection with cross traffic alert, air suspension, 19-speaker Bowers and Wilkins sound system, front seats with massage function, and Nappa leather upholstery. The vertically-placed Android-powered touchscreen infotainment system gets an advanced air purifier, built-in google apps and services along with connected car tech that can be accessed through Volvo Cars app.

Engine and Transmission

The S90 is petrol offering only. It is powered by a 2.0-litre petrol mill linked to a 48V electric motor which puts out 247bhp and 350Nm of peak torque. The transmission duty is handled by an eight-speed automatic transmission that sends power to the front wheels.
