The New Volvo XC90: Extreme Craftsmanship

We all have the necessity for a vehicle that can keep up with our busy lives in Houston. Some of us have been sacrificing either comfort, convenience, or safety, but that all ends with the new Volvo XC90.

It will check off every priority on your list with the latest in fine Scandinavian craftsmanship and engineering. Every detail has been meticulously thought through to create the epitome of style and functionality, along with power and efficiency that puts the competition to shame.

Design

Inside your new Volvo XC90, you'll be wrapped in luxury that is both comfortable and sustainable, with Tailored Wool-Blend upholstery that is 30 percent wool and 70 percent recycled polyester. Details like the exclusive metal-finish air vents and decorative trim add just enough elegance to of the interior without taking from the modern simplicity that is the Swedish trademark.

The standards of comfort have been raised with the XC90 with innovations such as ventilation and massage features in the front seats. The second and third rows are tiered to give an optimal view to every passenger, and the back seats fold flat at the touch of a button from the driver's seat for maximum practicality. With 85.7 cubic feet of cargo space, you'll be able to bring along all the gear you need for your next adventure around Pasadena.

Finish the perfect interior with the Bowers & Wilkens audio which was designed specifically for the XC90 to provide perfect acoustics for every type of music. The 19 speakers project a perfect balance of clarity and bass, and the three different room modes allow you to match the sound to your mood.

Performance

The performance of the XC90 speaks to the ingenious engineering behind the powertrain. Equipped with the XC90 T8 Twin Engine, you have the option of driving in Electric-Only Pure mode for zero-emission commuting. The twin-engine technology provides the ultimate versatility for trips of any distance.

With three different trims to choose from, there is an XC90 for every walk of life in League City:

• Momentum: This model is complete with "Thor's Hammer" daytime running lights and all the technology to match with simplistic and modern Swedish style.
• R-Design The sporty sibling of the three, this model comes in an array of unique colors and standard 20-inch aluminum-alloy wheels.
• Inscription: The Inscription is the epitome of luxury with Nappa leather seats, chrome highlights, and beautiful details like the crystal gear selector.

Safety

Volvo has a reputation for raising the bar, and safety is no exception. With a helping hand from technology, various Driver Assist Systems act as your co-pilot, ensuring the safest trip possible. The intuitive City Safety can sense any object that may present a dangerous situation, such as other vehicles or cyclists, and alert you to the danger. If you don't react in time, it can react for you by applying the brakes.

The XC90 is equipped with Run-off road mitigation which can detect if the vehicle is unintentionally leaving its lane and apply both steering and brakes to help you get back to a safe position.

Technology

No modern marvel of engineering is complete without all the latest in technology. The nine-inch central touch screen is the command center of the vehicle. Pair it with your smartphone through Apple CarPlay or Android Auto to manage your life through voice commands right from the driver's seat. You can take calls, make texts, and search for restaurants, all without taking your eyes off the road or hands off the wheel.

Instead of a cluster of instruments behind the wheel, the XC90 has a sleek and clear digital display that shows you everything you need to know about the vehicle. It automatically dims or brightens the display screen depending on the surrounding light, and offers the innovative Head-Up display, which presents all the information from the dash on the windshield so you won't have to look down and take your eyes off the road.

Make your trips even more effortless and convenient with the Volvo On Call app. Using the fully integrated Sensus Navigation, send your destinations straight to your vehicle via the Volvo On Call app for effortless navigation. Sensus Navigation also offers a variety of travel tools to help you discover new and exciting weekend getaways.

That's not all the Volvo On Call app can do. Connecting your device to your vehicle, it can unlock or lock the doors, pre-heat or pre-cool the interior, and even sync with your calendar to give you reminders for appointments and pre-set their locations in your navigation system.

Technology and Engineering go hand-in-hand with the variety of driving modes available in the new XC90. There are five modes total:

• Comfort for the smoothest, most relaxing ride.
• Dynamic for quick, sharp responses from your vehicle.
• Eco for maximum fuel efficiency.
• Off-Road for handling less than friendly terrain around Pearland
• The last mode is an individual one that allows you to mix and match the first four, creating the perfect driving feel for you.
