Get to Know the 2019 Volvo S90

When it comes to luxury sport sedans, Volvo has truly stepped up their game in recent years. With a plethora of comfortable interior appointments and features, three powerful engines, all-wheel drive capability, and a sport trim, the new Volvo S90 delivers, no matter what type of drive you're looking for. Available now at Premier Volvo Cars of Overland Park, the 2019 Volvo S90 makes for a sublime driving experience.

Performance

Kansas City drivers will enjoy choosing between the three available engines for the Volvo S90. The base engine is a 250-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder unit named the T5. At 258 pound-feet of torque and available with both front- and all-wheel drive options, you'll find plenty of fun despite this being a base level engine. And with fuel economy estimated at 34 mpg highway, 24 mpg city, and 27 mpg combined, your daily drive won't break the bank.

Overland Park drivers seeking a little extra kick of power will enjoy the 316-horsepower T6. This engine combines the power of a supercharger and turbocharger to add both power and torque (295 pound-feet from 258) and send it to all four wheels. And economy is still respectable at 31 mpg highway, 22 mpg city, and 25 mpg combined.

If you're looking for the best of the best, check out the T8 hybrid. Borrowing technology from the world of racing and supercars, this dual-motor setup uses the T6 as its combustion engine and adds an 87-horsepower electric motor. Generating the power for the electric motor pulls a small amount of power out of the T6, but still, a total of 400 horsepower and 472 pound-feet of torque make the T8 an incredible amount of fun. And because it's a hybrid, you'll get an estimated 72 MPGe, so the fuel savings are excellent as well.

Interior Comfort

If it isn't comfortable, is it a Volvo? The short answer is no, but the S90 takes comfort to the next level. With ergonomically-designed seats that are available with supple Nappa leather, simply sitting in the driver's seat is a joy. But that's not all you'll find. Those same seats can be both heated and ventilated for additional comfort in the scorching heat of summer or freezing cold of winter, and the 16-way power adjustability allow you to find the perfect driving position.

Look up and you'll find the panoramic power sliding moonroof that bathes the cabin in inviting, natural light, and when you want a little fresh air, open it up and breathe easy.

And the experience is even further enhanced by what you see in front of you - a dashboard replete with genuine wood inlays and custom stitching for a truly high-end aesthetic.

Technology

The Sensus Infotainment display comes standard and includes both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to make staying connected an absolute breeze. Looking through the steering wheel will find the 12.3-inch digital dashboard that can display navigation instructions with a map, phone call and music information, and warnings from the various driver assistance technologies.

Safety

Legendary Volvo build quality takes center stage regarding safety, but a series of advanced technological features are included to try and prevent it from ever needing to prove itself.

City Safety technology helps you out in more than just the city - it detects vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, and even large animals in the roadway and will warn you when it detects a possible collision. If for some reason you haven't reacted quickly enough, it can even fully apply the brakes to reduce or avoid a crash.

With blind spot monitoring you'll also get the rear cross traffic alert, which scans for oncoming vehicles you may not be able to see as you back out of a parking space.

Volvo S90 Trim Levels

When you're ready to choose your Volvo S90 model, you'll have the opportunity to choose between two available trim levels. Whether you want the highest levels of luxury or you'd prefer to keep things more low-key, the choice is completely up to you.

Momentum

A base model that's anything but sparse, the Volvo S90 Momentum opens the range with a deep list of standard features.The nine-inch Sensus touchscreen display puts the world at your fingertips, and staying connected is a breeze thanks to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto technologies. Advanced safety features including automatic emergency braking, run-off road mitigation, lane keep assist, and rear cross traffic alert combine to keep you safe from hazards in all directions.

Fine materials such as brushed aluminum and supple leather with contrast stitching make the interior of the S90 Momentum a place you won't soon want to leave. The panoramic power moonroof opens up the interior with a wash of natural light, and can be slid open at the touch of a button for a breath of fresh air.
