ROCKLEIGH, NJ (January 15, 2020) The Volvo #xc90 luxury SUV has been named a Car of the Decade by experts at #autotrader, the most recognized third-party car listings brand. It is the only luxury SUV to make the independently-chosen list.
According to #autotrader the #xc90 that debuted in the 2015 model year is the perfect example of a modern vehicle primed for the future. It has a range of turbocharged, supercharged and electrified four-cylinder engines and offers good efficiency, a modern, minimalist interior, loads of connectivity and safety features, and unique Scandinavian elements like an available wool-blend interior.

“The Volvo #xc90 is one of the best cars of the decade because it’s a spectacular luxury SUV that kicked off a long line of fresh new vehicles forever changing the course of the Volvo brand,” said Brian Moody, executive editor for #autotrader. “The #xc90 effectively elevates the entire brand to a true luxury position, it’s the full embodiment of all that Volvo can do right. The #xc90 is a perfect example of how design restraint actually adds to the allure of a given vehicle. Both inside and out, the Volvo #xc90 is tasteful and luxurious. Add to this a suite of advanced driver assist technologies and the Volvo #xc90 becomes a compelling plot point in a long running story of Scandinavian style, engineering and fun that has become the Volvo of today and tomorrow.”
“The #xc90 was named 2016 North American Utility of the Year and 2016 Motor Trend SUV of the Year, on top of more than 100 other awards from around the world,” said Anders Gustafsson, Executive Vice President Americas and President and CEO of Volvo Car USA. “For our best-selling vehicle to now be named an #autotrader Car of the Decade is just incredible, not just for us but for all our customers who chose to drive an #xc90 instead of so many others on the market.”
The #xc90 represents the essence of what a modern Volvo can be, and is Volvo’s most
The #xc90 represents the essence of what a modern Volvo can be, and is Volvo’s most popular vehicle in the United States. For the 2020 Model Year, the #xc90 has been completely refreshed and a 6-seater variant has been added, allowing for easier access to the third row of seats.
The #xc90 features a confident, luxurious take on traditional Scandinavian design. The exterior has a strong stance with a subtle, timeless quality and balanced proportions. The interior is a masterful composition of relaxing design, beautiful materials, and the very latest technology - all perfectly blended together.
The gas-powered T6 turbo- and supercharged engine provides 316 horsepower and the T5 turbocharged engine delivers 250 horsepower. The T8 Twin Engine Plug-In Hybrid offers a combined 400 horsepower and does not compromise interior space, providing the same cargo area and seven seating positions as all #xc90 models.

• Striking exterior design with a confident stance
