It's very difficult and expensive to design everything from whole cloth. Not Volvo is a special case in that the company hasn't built a new car in years. So, it had the opportunity when it redesigned its XC90 to build something completely different. To take in all the available technologies, all the comfort, all the safety and rethink it. And what they produced is something pretty special. Volvo's known for safety and in this XC90 it's really taken it to the limit. I mean, you can't even Move the car unless you're belted in. And, even if you go off the road, it's got a system that's going to absorb energy because off- road vehicle accidents are some of the most lethal. the XE- 90 is a three- row SUV. You can get seven adults in here. And, in a lot of SUV's, even the luxury models, People sit in the front do very nicely, people in the second row, not so good and the people in third row hate you by the end of the trip because it's so snug in there. In the XE90, they've thought about things from back to front. The second row is easy to get into the third is easy to get into. Even the engine compartment is elegant in this car. The XE90 runs on a four cylinder 316 horsepower engine. This is a lot of car to be hauling around with a four banger, but what they've done to boost the power is that there is a turbo charger and a super charger in this thing. They do the same thing. They force air into the engine. The turbocharger runs off the exhaust, whereas the supercharger runs off the engine. Now, this is what they needed to do to get the extra boost in the engine. The interior of the XC90 is really Scandinavian, in that it's Blonde, leather, wood. It's that combination. The look of this black leather, the edge of it, it is just really gorgeous. There are a load of interesting features on this and one of them is this, you can control the passenger's seat from the driver's seat. The most interesting part of this is the control panel here. Everything that you want to do in this car can be controlled from this one screen. If you want to play with the radio, play with the parking assist, you can lower the head rests in the back seat. It all comes from here. There's some surprises in the second row too. For instance the seats are adjustable you rarely see that. Here in the middle seat becomes a booster seat for children and when they're no kids [ MUSIC ] Becomes a console for your beverages. This is one of the most enjoyable cars I've been in this year because everything works perfectly. You're seated in a beautiful environment. The control Are easy to use, it drives well, the sunroof is gorgeous, everything works on this car.
