EV Channels Review
The 2023 Volvo XC90 receives significant updates, particularly with new mild-hybrid powertrains (B5, B6) and a revised trim structure (Core, Plus, Ultimate) that allows for independent exterior theme selection. The reviewer highlights the enduring exterior design, praising its timeless appeal. Inside, the Ultimate trim offers luxurious Nappa leather, an upgraded digital gauge cluster, and the impressive crystal shifter. The Android Automotive OS infotainment system, while functional with Google Maps integration and Apple CarPlay, is noted for its relatively small 9-inch screen. The reviewer commends the comfortable seats, excellent ride quality (especially with optional air suspension), and the premium sound system. Downsides include the lack of a wireless charging pad for 2023 and the manual operation required for folding the third-row seats. Powertrain options range from the B5 (247 hp) to the more recommended B6 (295 hp) mild-hybrid, and the potent T8 Recharge (455 hp) with 32 miles of EV range. All 2023 models come standard with AWD. The XC90 remains a highly recommended luxury three-row SUV, with its continuous refinement making it a strong contender.
