The Volvo S90 is an executive sedan manufactured and marketed by Swedish automaker Volvo Cars since 2016.

Its estate variant is called the Volvo V90

Models

At the moment only a sedan and estate model are available. Volvo has hinted at possible long wheelbase and coupe variants, but not until at least 2020.

S90

Before its reveal, the first official pictures of the S90 were revealed on Wednesday, 2 December 2015. The S90 was unveiled to the public in January 2016 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Michigan. The S90's design was well-received, winning the Production Car Design of the Year award for 2015.
While not a direct successor to the second generation S80, the S90 replaces it as the flagship sedan in Volvo's lineup. Several trim levels are available, ranging from Momentum to Inscription. In July 2016 an optional, cosmetic R-Design package was announced. A long wheelbase version was announced and will be available in the United States.

S90L

A special, stretched version of the S90 for the Chinese market. It is stretched by 12 cm. behind the B-pillar. Currently, this variant is not badged as "S90L". It will also be sold in the United States for the 2018 model year

V90

Two months after the introduction of the sedan model, the V90 was revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2016.

In the United States, the V90 will only be available by special order

V90 Cross-Country

Previewed before the 2016 Paris motor show, the V90 Cross-Country is a raised height, AWD version of the V90 designed for use on rough terrain, unsealed roads and for light off-road usage.

In the United States, only the XC version of the V90 will be available a as a regular production model you can buy off the lot, as the regular V90 is order-only.

Engines

The S90 and V90 are only available with 2.0-litre, 4 cylinder petrol and diesel engines from the VEA family (DRIVe). The more powerful petrol engines are compound charged, as is the plug-in hybrid variant called the T8. The D5 diesel engine features Volvo's newPowerPulse technology that is designed to eliminate turbo lag as well as an i-Art injection system.
