Volvo S90 9

The Luxury Sedan of the Future

In theory, a luxury sedan should combine the best aspects of all vehicles: sporty but spacious, fast yet fastidious. But so often these models fall flat, turning into clunky, matronly cousins of the sports car and SUV alike. That’s certainly not the case with the Volvo S90.

With 32 awards to its name, including Best Human Interface by NAIAS Eyes on Design Awards, Design of the Year by Automobile Magazine, and Women’s World Luxury Car of the Year, the Volvo S90 is a critically-acclaimed and much-beloved interpretation of the luxury sedan.

Its exterior is sleek, with buffed angles that call to mind the aerodynamics and speed of something made for the air rather than the pavement. The 2.0 liter, 4-cylinder Drive-E Engine is engineered to deliver uniquely responsive power with clean efficiency in a compact package. That means unparalleled quick response without the guilt of a gas guzzling sports car. If you’d like to live really clean, the S90 is also available with a 400hp Hybrid engine with a 54mpg rating.

The S90 comes with all the futuristic amenities we love. The Pilot Assist with Adaptive Cruise Control comes standard in the sedan, as does Lane Keeping Aid, the kind of semi-autonomous driving features we’re excited for in the future (that future is now). A standard safety feature is the City Safety Collision Mitigation System, which avoids collisions with buildings, vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists and even large mammals. If disaster does strike, Volvo On-Call is available to help you through your predicament.

The high technological standards of the S90 extend far beyond safety. The Sensus 9.3″ Touch Screen Intelligent Driver Information System delivers technology to your fingertips. The car’s system works seamlessly with both Spotify and Microsoft Skype for Business, so you’ll never be bored or late for a meeting again. The Road Sign Information System, which is also standard, helps the driver keep track of which road signs they’ve passed (so long, speeding tickets). And the Clean-Zone Air Quality System improves the air quality of the air inside the vehicle.

The luxury sedan is equally appropriate for a business trip down 40 as a spin on the Blue Ridge Parkway. This isn’t the luxury sedan of your grandfather, but the simultaneously sporty and stately sedan of the future.
