5 reasons to buy the 2019 Volvo V90

1. Available Harman Kardon audio system 

If you’re an audiophile, look out for the available Harman Kardon® audio system. You’ll love the rich, immersive audio that’s perfect for everything from podcasts and classical music to heavy metal. You can also connect to your phone using the standard Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto integration, which allows you to access your favorite music, apps, and audio streaming services. 

2. Classy interior design 

Volvo's reputation for elegance and style is evident in the 2019 V90's interior. The cabin combines luxury and comfort, featuring high-end materials and a thoughtful layout. Look out for the classy wood, leather, and aluminum accents that elevate this wagon’s style to something that feels special. 

3. Loads of cargo capacity 

The joy of a wagon is its ability to carry people and stuff without the footprint of an SUV or truck. You’ll get 53.9 cu-ft in the back with all the seats in place, plus the flexibility of split-folding seats with a pass-through for longer items such as skis. This makes the V90 incredibly practical whether you’re moving your kid to college or heading out on that once-in-a-lifetime road trip. 

4. Off-road ability 

The 2019 V90 isn't just about good looks; it's also ruggedly capable. Look out for the Cross Country version, which has all-wheel drive as standard, as well as higher ground clearance than the base model. This not only gives you the confidence to explore more adventurous paths but also comes in handy when the weather turns. 

5. Engaging drive 

Driving the Volvo V90 is an experience in itself. It offers an engaging drive, thanks to its responsive handling and smooth performance. Whether navigating city streets or cruising on the highway, the V90 is easy to drive. There are two engine options available to suit your style: the T5 has 250 hp while the T6 has 316 hp alongside AWD.
