2019 Volvo XC90 pricing and specs

Volvo has made some very subtle spec updates to its large SUV, adding kit across its three trim levels without changing the car's price. 


Volvo has given its XC90 SUV a very mild spec refresh for the 2019 model year, adding some luxury touches to high-end models without changing its pricing.

The line-up maintains its three-tier model structure, staring with Momentum, rolling through Inscription to R-Design. Three powertrains are offered, starting with the XC90 D5.

It's powered by a 2.0-litre turbo-diesel engine making 165kW and 470Nm, good for a 7.8-second sprint to 100km/h and 6.2L/100km on the combined cycle.

Jumping to the T6 gets you a turbo- and supercharged four-cylinder petrol engine making 235kW and 400Nm, for a 6.5-second run to 100km/h and 8.5L/100km on the combined cycle.

The range-topping powertrain is the T8 PHEV, which adds a 65kW/240Nm electric motor to the T6 petrol engine for a claimed 2.1L/100km on the combined cycle. In the real world, of course, that figure could be much higher.

For 2019, the XC90 Momentum has gained a head-up display (previously $1900) as standard, while the Inscription has picked up rear sun-blinds, powered seat bolsters in the front, and a fancier 'tailored' instrument binnacle.

Finally, the range-topping R-Design gains the tailored instrument binnacle and rear sun-blind for 2019. Otherwise, the spec sheet remains unchanged.

In the Momentum, you get factory navigation as standard, parking sensors at the front and rear, a rear-view camera, LED headlights, four-zone climate control, leather seats, and autonomous emergency braking. The car rides on 19-inch alloy wheels, and misses out on the sporty styling offered on the R-Design.

Jumping to the Inscription adds a set of 20-inch alloy wheels, keyless entry with a hands-free tailgate, the 'IntelliSafe' safety suite with blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alerts, and Comfort Nappa leather on the seats, among other subtle trim tweaks.

The range-topping R-Design brings about diamond-cut 20-inch alloys, perforated leather trim, paddle shifters, and unique trim elements for the dash and doors. When coupled with the most powerful T8 setup, opting R-Design also brings a crystal shifter, a panoramic sunroof and a tyre repair kit.
