REVIEW

Worldwide the Volvo XC90 has always been one of the bestselling premium SUVs, with the build quality, stylish looks and discreet badge ensuring it stole sales from Audi, Mercedes and BMW, not to mention Range Rover, even after being on sale for 14 years. Volvo decided it was time for a new model and has gone from the ground-up with an all new premium SUV positioned to take the fight directly to Range Rover. Stylish looks hide a lighter body and brand new tech-laden engines. This T8 model packs 396bhp from the most unusual of power plants – a 2.0 litre four-cylinder engine that is turbocharged and supercharged, supplemented by electric motors. This means you get lots of power and performance, plus super-low emissions and fuel economy to beat the diesel model. The perfect combination.
