The Swedish Brand's Rebirth: A New Era for Volvo

As soon as you get a look at the new S90 sedan's design, it's clear that Volvo has changed. The brand's rebirth is obvious, and it's not just limited to the exterior of the car. Volvo's new luxury direction is on full display in every aspect of the vehicle, from the interior design to the features and technologies that come standard. In fact, the S90 sedan is a perfect example of how beautiful and practical can be combined in a luxury car.

One of the most notable changes at Volvo is their decision to power all their cars with four-cylinder engines. This may sound like a recipe for slow and safe cars, but trust us, the S90 sedan is anything but slow. In fact, it offers a choice of two different engines, one of which is both turbocharged and supercharged, making 316 horsepower. That means 0 to 60 comes up in just 5.7 seconds, making this car a real contender in the luxury sedan market.

The interior of the S90 sedan is also worth mentioning. One of the standout features is the large color display screen right in front of the driver. It's easy to read and provides all the necessary information at a glance. Additionally, there's a large 9-inch touchscreen in the middle of the dash that controls a lot of features, including Apple CarPlay. What's unique about this setup is that carplay can be used alongside the Volvo's native control, so you don't have to switch back and forth between the two.

This thoughtful design choice makes for a seamless driving experience. The S90 sedan feels powerful and quiet, making it an excellent choice for those who want to enjoy the ride without distractions. And with driver-selectable driving modes, including Eco, Comfort, and Dynamic, you can get the car to feel just the way you want. This level of customization is impressive, as you can even customize individual settings to make the car truly yours.

The audio system in the S90 sedan is also worth noting. The Bowers & Wilkins sound system is available and sounds amazing, as you would expect from a luxury brand like Volvo. But what's even more impressive is the attention to detail that's gone into every aspect of the interior design. From the real wood trim to the spacious back seats, it's clear that Volvo has put a lot of thought into creating a luxurious driving experience.

One feature that may seem unusual for a luxury car is the parking camera. However, this clever system makes getting into tight spaces easy, which is especially important when dealing with a car as large as the S90. With its roomy back seats and spacious interior, the S90 sedan is not small, and it's essential to have features like a parking camera to make navigation easier.

Finally, the pricing of the 2017 Volvo S90 starts at around $46,000. However, expect a nicely equipped T6 all-wheel drive model to run past $55,000. As for the wagon version, no word yet on pricing, but it's expected to be available later with the S90 being the first to show up by late summer of 2016.

Overall, the Volvo S90 sedan represents a new era for the Swedish brand. With its beautiful design, powerful engines, and luxurious features, it's clear that Volvo is serious about their new direction. Whether you're looking for a car that's both practical and beautiful or one that offers a unique driving experience, the S90 sedan is definitely worth considering.
