Volvo Cars
today reveals the new Volvo S90 – more elegant and comfortable than ever with a
comprehensive suite of high-end technology and design updates.
The exterior conveys a contemporary look that reflects Volvo Cars’ ongoing
transition towards full electrification. Inside, the refreshed interior
features new premium materials and enhanced features, which embrace the
customer benefits of human-centric technology.
The new S90 features our new-generation user interface, which, as previously
announced, is coming to our total line-up. It’s designed to
provide a safe and enjoyable way to interact with the infotainment system,
while being much quicker and more responsive than before. A new larger
free-standing 11.2-inch centre display enhances the experience, and
over-the-air software updates ensure the car will get better over time.
As a plug-in hybrid*, the new S90 is an electric car with a back-up plan.
It offers 80 kilometres of fully electric range on a single charge under
the WLTP testing cycle**, while also providing more power when
needed. This means that many S90 drivers will be able to do their daily
commute with zero tailpipe emissions. Volvo Cars’ data shows that nearly half
of the distance covered by the latest plug-in hybrid Volvo cars is powered
purely by electricity.***
The S90 is also available in a mild hybrid version, featuring a four-cylinder
turbocharged petrol engine with front wheel drive, which offers generous power
and high efficiency.
“The S90 is a key part of our product
portfolio for the coming years in some of our Asian markets,” says Erik
Severinson, Chief Product and Strategy Officer at Volvo Cars. “Together with
the new fully electric ES90, the new S90 ensures we have a complete and attractive
offering for customers who value safety and want to drive a large, sleek Volvo
sedan.”
Designed to
help keep you safe
True to Volvo Cars’ safety heritage, the new S90 has an advanced safety cage
and a range of active safety features. The assisted driving function, Pilot
Assist, allows for comfortable driving on both multi-lane highways and
single-lane roads. In addition to maintaining a set speed and adapting to
slower-moving vehicles, the car can follow the vehicle ahead and brake
automatically to a standstill when needed in stop-and-go traffic. Pilot Assist
can also support the driver by looking for lane markings and providing gentle
steer assist to help keep the car centred in its lane.
Luxurious and modern
The new S90 exterior design is a blend of luxury and contemporary Scandinavian
design, and features significant updates. Both the new front and rear of
the car have been designed to give the S90 a more contemporary, fresh look,
with a streamlined silhouette accentuated by clean lines and a bold, more
graphical front grille.
Its front is flanked by Volvo Cars’ signature Thor’s Hammer headlights.
These modernised headlights, with a slimmer shape and lens that stretches all
the way to the grille, feature the new Matrix-design LED technology, designed
to give a wide and long light pattern for optimised vision in all conditions.
At the rear, the new taillights seamlessly integrate with the overall
design, creating a cohesive look. Additionally, the S90 has a new sculpted
bonnet, front bumper and front wings. The S90 also introduces enhanced sound
insulation with advanced adaptive suspension as standard to make it more
comfortable than ever.
A wide range of distinctive exterior colours makes it easy to personalise the
Volvo S90, with two new metallic colours offered for the first time: Aurora
Silver and Mulberry Red. Adding to the elegant and powerful character of the
new S90 are the new diamond-cut alloy wheels, featuring contrasting surfaces of
raw, polished aluminium and high-gloss black paint.
The new S90 will be available to order for customers in China this summer, with
selected other markets following later.
