Exterior
Chief Designer Peter Horbury calls the XC90’s appearance “masculine, but not macho; muscular, but not aggressive.” At 188.9 inches long overall, the XC90 is 3.4 inches longer than Volvo’s V70 wagon. A 112.6-inch wheelbase and wide track dimensions help enhance stability. Ground clearance is 8.6 inches.
The XC90’s styling features include tall taillamps, an accentuated V-shaped hood, a “cockpit-forward profile” and a dark, upright eggcrate grille. The 70/30-split tailgate flaunts a sporty angle.
