Volvo S90: say hello to the stunning new premium sedan

Posted on

New Delhi, 3 December 2015: With the launch of the S90, Volvo is taking the fight for supremacy in luxury automobile land deep into German territory. The distinctive new premium executive sedan is an important milestone for the Swedish car maker, and follows the launch of the highly appreciated XC90, which was unveiled a few months back.

The visual expression of the S90 exudes leadership and confidence on the exterior and features the signature new design language with Thor’s Hammer LED lights. This is complemented with a high-end luxury experience that promises comfort and control on the inside, and the driving dynamics, performance and ride quality push segment benchmarks a notch higher. Equipped with a host of new technologies in safety, cloud-based apps and services, the sedan comes with a powerful T8 Twin Engine plug-in hybrid powertrain and connected infotainment systems.

The S90 comes with an advanced semi-autonomous drive feature, Pilot Assist. The system gives gentle steering inputs to keep the car properly aligned within lane markings up to motorway speeds of around 130 km/h and no longer needs to follow another car. Pilot Assist is another step towards full autonomous drive – a key innovation area for Volvo. The S90 also introduces a system capable of detecting large animals such as elk, horses or moose, night or day. The technology offers an intuitive warning and brake support to help avoid a collision.

In India, the car is likely to be unveiled in the 4th quarter of 2016 to coincide with the festive season.
