Volvo today announced availability and pricing for the XC90 V8 Sport — featuring a dynamic chassis setting, unique appearance, interior specification upgrades, and sport tuned suspension. "Pricing and positioning in this extremely competitive segment are integral to success," said Anne Bélec, president and CEO, Volvo Cars of North America. The 311 horsepower SUV will cost $49,300.
"We have had numerous requests for a sportier XC90," said Susanna Johnsson, Product Manager of Special Vehicles at Volvo Car Corporation. "They are from customers who appreciate the versatility and comfort of an SUV but who also want a bit more driving pleasure. We have developed the Volvo XC90 V8 Sport especially for them, with a dynamic sport chassis, stiffer anti-roll bars, firmer shock absorbers, a sport-tuned, speed-dependent steering system, and larger, 19" wheels," she explained.
The Volvo XC90 Sport will be launched with 2 colors that are unique for this XC90 variant – Passion Red and Electric Silver – plus double chromed exhaust pipes. The interior is customized with a sport steering wheel and gear selector covered in perforated leather, plus sports seats with additional lateral cushioning to support the driver during cornering.
