Mid-Size Sedan

Product Overview

Volvo S90 facelift is an executive sedan in production from 2020. It is available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 2.0 liters. Both manual and automatic transmissions are offered.

Compared to the pre-facelift, this facelift brought only minor cosmetic changes. One can be forgiven for not being able to tell the two apart on the road. Mechanically, no change has been made other than complying with the new Euro 6d emission standard (which does involve significant changes in the exhaust system).

Volvo has made a good effort in aerodynamics, with a decent 0.26 coefficient of drag to show for it.

Reviewer score 64% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autocar have found:

The S90's had a few styling tweaks for the latest model year. It's predictably roomy and retains a really impressive aura of quality. There’s just a little bit of road noise on rougher surfaces from the standard-fit 19in wheels, and the occasional out-of-town fidget.

Pros

Comfortable to drive
Excellent infotainment system
Good-looking interior

Cons

Lacklustre powertrain
Not the most fun to drive

Reviewer score 77% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autoexpress have found:

The S90 is a practical machine helped massively by its larger boot, which also features power closing as standard. While the S90 offers lots of standard safety features, its technology and connectivity can't compete with either of its rivals' It's fast and smooth enough, but compared with the BMW it's only slightly cheaper, not as good to drive and lacks visual appeal.

Pros

Comfortable to drive
Lots of standard safety tech
Excellent infotainment

Cons

Small boot
Not as good to drive as rivals
