The Volvo V90 is an upscale station wagon that competes against vehicles like Volvo’s own V60, as well as the Audi A4 and A6 Allroads and the Subaru Outback.
What’s New for the 2023 Volvo V90
The Volvo V90 is a great pick for a station wagon, and for 2023, Volvo expands the trim lineup from one to two models for added appeal. The V90 was an all-new model for 2018, and in the years since, it has seen only minor changes, including revised styling for 2021 and a new mild-hybrid system for 2022.
Design
The Volvo V90 exemplifies the brand’s sophisticated-yet-simple styling. The current station wagon segment trends upscale, and the V90 is no different. It comes standard with LED headlights, a panoramic sunroof, and sturdy-looking yet elegant 19-inch alloy wheels. Colors range from dull to duller, but that’s just a sign of the times. Options like an adaptive air suspension system and 20-inch wheels give this endearing family hauler more style and substance.
Powertrain
Both trim levels of the 2023 Volvo V90 come with the same powertrain, a turbocharged and supercharged 2.0-liter inline-four engine with a mild-hybrid system, good for a combined output of 295 horsepower. The V90 comes standard with an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive (AWD). The mild-hybrid system is more for performance than fuel economy, resulting in about-average EPA ratings of 22 mpg city and 29 mpg highway. Properly equipped, the 2023 Volvo V90 can tow up to 3,500 lbs.
Interior
The Volvo V90 features a functional yet upscale cabin that transports five passengers in comfort. Standard features include a panoramic sunroof, keyless entry, leather upholstery, power-adjustable and heated front seats, a 12-inch digital gauge cluster, a 10-speaker audio system, and quad-zone automatic climate control. Options include ambient lighting, a heated steering wheel, heated rear seats, premium Nappa leather upholstery, massaging front seats, passenger seat memory settings, a hands-free power liftgate, and several options for audio upgrades. The V90’s cargo area can hold 19.8 cubic feet of gear, with a total of 69 cubic feet when the rear seats are folded down.
Technology
Volvo equips every V90 with a 12-inch digital instrument cluster, a 9-inch touch-screen infotainment display, Bluetooth, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, wireless smartphone charging, and a 10-speaker audio system. Premium 14- and 19-speaker sound systems are available. Volvo’s infotainment system runs on a Google-based platform, and it’s generally quick and user-friendly, though there are few physical controls for features like climate control.
Safety
The 2023 Volvo V90 earned the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) Top Safety Pick+ rating, and top Good scores in all six crash tests. The Volvo V90 has not been tested by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
Volvo equips every V90 with a reversing camera, forward collision warning, forward automatic emergency braking, pedestrian and cyclist detection, adaptive cruise control with lane centering, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, front and rear parking sensors, driver-alertness monitoring, traffic-sign recognition, and automatic high-beam headlights. Options include a surround-view camera system and a head-up display.
Pricing
As of this writing, Volvo lists pricing at an MSRP of $58,450 for the base Plus trim and $64,050 for the Ultimate trim. The Plus model is available with a couple of different configurations of Climate packages for about $750, which can add heated rear seats, a heated steering wheel, headlight cleaners, and built-in child booster seats. A 14-speaker Harman Kardon stereo costs $800. The Ultimate trim is available with an adaptive air suspension system for $1,200 and a Bowers & Wilkins stereo for $3,200. The 2023 Volvo V90 is on sale now.
