2021 Volvo S90

The S90 is Volvo's premium 4-door, 5-seat flagship sedan. (concept carz) It is built on the Scalable Product Architecture (SPA), Volvo's advanced modular vehicle platform that underpins all Volvo cars in the 90 and 60 Series launched in recent years.

Like its siblings XC90 and V90, the S90 carries the proud and confident face of Volvo's design language, along with classic Volvo styling cues. Key features include the iconic 'Thor's Hammer' LED headlight design, the new grille and Volvo Iron Mark, and the Volvo word mark on the rear. The exterior design of the S90 was further refined for the model year 2021 onwards.

In the cabin, Volvo has taken cues from the clean, Scandinavian interior design of its XC90 model and raised the bar with new details on the dashboard and instrument panel, including new air blades that stand vertically on each side of the user interface.

Connectivity and infotainment

All new Volvos are now connected, thanks to Volvo's connectivity and infotainment system. It delivers an intuitive touch screen interface that combines car functions, navigation, connected services and in-car entertainment applications such as Spotify, Pandora, Baidu or TuneIn. The portrait-oriented touch screen enables easy and fast access to a host of functions and features. Smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is also available.

Powertrain technology

The S90 is powered by Volvo's Drive-E powertrains, including petrol and diesel variants as well as a T8 Twin Engine AWD petrol plug-in hybrid that delivers as much as 407hp. It is also available with a range of 48 volt mild hybrid variants on both petrol and diesel powertrains.

Volvo's Twin Engine plug-in hybrid delivers all the benefits of a high performance, low emission petrol engine with an electric motor that delivers power on demand with ultralow CO2 emissions and more than 40 km of pure electric range. The company's mild hybrid technology, meanwhile, offers drivers up to 15 per cent fuel savings and emission reductions in real world driving.

Safety and driver assistance

Volvo's City Safety technology, standard on all Volvo models, combines automatic braking functionality and collision avoidance systems to cover a range of potential accident scenarios and help keep you safe. City Safety is the only system on the market that detects pedestrians, cyclists and large animals such as moose and deer.

The Pilot Assist driver assistance system works up to 130 km/h on clearly marked roads.
