An impressive maximum ground clearance of 9.2 inches (when
equipped with 18-inch wheels), and a 6.5 inches ride height
advantage over XC70, the 2008 2009 Volvo xc90 SUV picture conquers
light offroad and stands up to the demands of suburban road
conditions. Volvo has stepped forward from offering SUV-type
vehicles to offering a bona fide XC90 SUV new for 2006. As
a means to demonstrate that fact, we created our 2008 2009 Volvo
xc90 SUV review and display our XC90 picture. To prevent rollovers,
the most dangerous mishap common to SUVs, Volvo now includes
Roll Stability Control (RSC) that activates the DSTC (Dynamic
Stability and Traction Control). As a redundancy factor, the
roof of the XC90 is composed of Boron steel, which Volvo notes
is four times stronger than conventional steel. A 208-hp 5-cyl
engine, and 5-speed automatic transmission accompanies the
entry-level 2.5T which comes with front-wheel or all-wheel
drive. The T6 AWD has a 268-hp 6 cyl and a 4-speed automatic.
Antilock 4-wheel disc brakes and antiskid/traction control
are standard.
The 2008 2009 Volvo xc90 SUV is a safe and fun vehicle regardless
of the debate whether the 2008 2009 Volvo XC90 is a true SUV or
a crossover. You can order an XC90 with the following accessories:
leather upholstery
moonroof
memory for the side mirrors
power passenger seat
in-dash six-disc changer
Homelink
auto-dimming mirror
You can even get a wood steering wheel, power retractable
side mirrors, a Dolby Pro Logic II Surround system with 12
speakers, and 18-inch wheels. If you're shopping for a luxury
SUV or crossover SUV, the XC90 just might fit the bill. Deeper
options include a third-row seat with a rear air conditioner
with its own controls, a self-leveling rear suspension, rear
headphone outlets with separate stereo controls and a center
booster seat for the second row. Individual options include
a DVD-based navigation system, bi-HID headlamps, a park distance
control system and a DVD entertainment system that'll be available
this year.
Either a twin-turbocharged inline 2.9-liter six-cylinder
that produces 268 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque
managed by a five-speed automanual, or a turbocharged inline
2.5-liter five-cylinder, mated to a four-speed automanual,
that produces 208 hp and 236 lb-ft of torque comes with the
2008 2009 Volvo XC90. The XC90's maximum tow rating is 5,000 pounds
for both engines. XC90 offers 5-passenger seating or 7 with
an available 3rd-row bench and has 4 door unibody construction
with turbocharged power. A twin tailgate feature, one large
and one small drop down tailgate door allows easy access to
the rear.
With rows folding down to create a flat floor, the XC90
may be configured as either a five or seven seater. An integrated
child booster cushion can be integrated into the middle seat
in the second row. Visit our site frequently for monthly updates,
