Volvo
Car India has launched its flagship luxury SUV – The New Volvo XC90,with a
completely new petrol mild-hybrid engine. Coming close on the heels of the
October launch of the petrol mild-hybrids Volvo S90 and Volvo XC60, this launch
completes the company’s commitment of transition from diesel to petrol cars and
in the direction of reducing the Brand’s carbon footprint globally.
The
new petrol mild-hybrid Volvo XC90 is priced at Rs.89,90,000, ex-showroom. The
XC90 is a seven-seater SUV. It was the first car to be launched on the Scalable
Product Architecture (SPA), Volvo’s advanced modular and state-of-the-art
product platform that features in all Volvo cars in the 90 and 60 Series.
“With
the launch of the New XC90, we have launched three new petrol mild-hybrid
models this quarter. The confidence reposed by the customer in our brand has
given us the conviction to offer them technology loaded new models. This launch
completes our commitment to transit from diesel to petrol and underlines our
unfettered strategy to grow the Indian market.” said Jyoti Malhotra, Managing
Director, Volvo Car India.
The
advanced technology in the XC90 enables the driver to have personalized comfort
and mobility setting. Head-up display allows you to watch your speed, follow
turn-by-turn navigation, answer phone calls and more. All come without losing
focus on the road. The XC90 has an intuitive touch screen interface that
combines car functions, navigation, connected services and in-car entertainment
applications. 
Volvo’s
leadership in the field of automotive safety is embedded in the XC90. The SPA
platform has resulted in the strongest Volvo cars to date because of extensive
use of boron steel, as well as numerous safety systems designed to protect
people inside and outside the car.
The
New XC90 comes with a latest advanced air cleaner technology that has a sensor
to measure PM 2.5 levels inside the cabin. This optimizes air quality inside
the car, limiting the adverse health effects that are associated with air
pollution and fine particulates. Cleaner air inside the car also helps to
advance safe driving, as healthy and fresh air can help boost driver
concentration. 
In
the cabin, the XC90 provides a luxury mobility environment with a blend of
high-end materials such as wood, crystal and metal in a sophisticated
Scandinavian design.
