Safety leadership
The Volvo XC90 has been named the Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety for three years in a row. We start with a safety cage made of four grades of high-strength steel.  We add Whiplash Protection Seating System (WHIPS) in the front seats, Inflatable Curtain (IC) air bags for all seating positions, including the third row, and Side Impact Protection System with SIPS air bags. The XC90 also incorporates active safety features such as the world-first Roll Stability Control (RSC) that monitors the vehicle's angle and roll rate, Dynamic Stability Traction Control, and available Blind Spot Information System (BLIS).

A comfortable ride for everyone
An extremely versatile vehicle, the XC90 offers seven-passenger seating and a fold-down front seat for best-in-class cargo capacity. There is a separate A/C unit with controls for the rear seats, and our world-first integrated child booster seat.  Drivers will like the power seats with a three-position driver's seat memory--and everyone will enjoy the rich leather interior, sporty sunroof, and
Electronic Climate Control.

World-class in-car entertainment
The XC90 comes complete with HD Radio and USB interfaces, Dual Screen Rear Seat Entertainment System, and a High Performance audio CD with eight speakers, MP 3 capability, and AUX input.

Design, Performance, and Peace of Mind
From the exclusive Scandinavian design to the high-performance chassis to the wheels and tires, the XC90 is a pleasure to drive. The engines meet ULEV II emission standards -- that's a world-first for a V8 -- and the XC90 is 85-percent recyclable.  Regular Factory Scheduled Maintenance keeps the XC90 running in top condition --and Volvo On Call roadside assistance is available just in case.
