XC90 exterior design[a]
A sculpted, confident shape, finished in bright or dark details.

Confident and contemporary
Confident and contemporary
Slimmer headlights, a new grille pattern and a more sculpted bonnet, bumper and wings give the XC90 a sharper, more modern face, while its proportions stay unmistakably Volvo.

Bright or Dark exterior theme
Bright or Dark exterior theme
The Core and Plus wear the Bright theme: a chrome grille frame and inserts, bright aluminium window trim and roof rails, and mirror covers in the body colour.
The Ultra and the Black Edition take the Dark theme, with high-gloss black details for a sportier look.

Four wheel designs
Four wheel designs
Three diamond-cut alloy wheels in 20, 21 and 22 inches pair polished aluminium with black, and the Black Edition adds its own 21-inch glossy black design. Every wheel suits both exterior themes.

Seven seats in three rows
Seven seats in three rows
Every XC90 Plug-in Hybrid in South Africa has seven seats in three rows, with air conditioning of its own for the third row and an integrated booster cushion for younger passengers.
The second row releases with one pull, so climbing into the back is easy.

Matrix-design LED headlights
Matrix-design LED headlights
The slim, T-shaped Thor's Hammer headlights are as practical as they are distinctive. Matrix-design LED technology throws a long, even beam and dims parts of the high beam automatically so you do not dazzle oncoming drivers, while cornering lights show the way through turns at low speed.
A light sequence greets you as you walk up to the car and sees you off when you leave.

Spacious, flexible boot
A spacious, flexible boot
The boot floor is wide and flat, with no lip to lift bags over. With all seven seats in use there are 244 litres for luggage; fold the rear backrests one by one or a row at a time and the space grows to as much as 1 941 litres, plus 31 litres under the floor.
Kick under the rear bumper to open or close the power tailgate hands-free, or use the buttons on the tailgate, the centre display or the key.

Request an XC90 Plug-in Hybrid quote and Produkta Volvo Cars Mbombela will confirm current pricing and availability.
Is the Volvo XC90 only available as a plug-in hybrid?
No. The XC90 is also available as a mild hybrid.
How far can the XC90 Plug-in Hybrid drive on electric power?
Up to 84 km on a full battery, on the WLTP cycle, before the petrol engine needs to help. Range figures are preliminary, based on WLTP testing under specific test conditions and not guaranteed; real-world range depends on how and where you drive. Vehicle certification pending.
What is the fuel consumption of the XC90 Plug-in Hybrid?
1.5 l/100 km on the weighted combined WLTP cycle, which counts both the petrol engine and the electric motor. Electric energy consumption is 25.1 kWh/100 km and the fuel tank holds 71 litres. Figures are preliminary and not guaranteed. Vehicle certification pending.
Where can I charge the XC90 Plug-in Hybrid?
At home, a Volvo Cars home wallbox lets you charge overnight. On the road, the Volvo Cars app and Google Maps show public charging stations where charging locations are included. Read more about home and public charging in charging your Volvo.
How long does the XC90 Plug-in Hybrid take to charge?
Around three hours from 0 to 100 per cent on a Volvo Cars home wallbox or a standard public AC charger. That is the typical time at a 6.4 kW AC charger, from Volvo Cars' testing and calculations, and is not guaranteed; charging times vary with outdoor and battery temperature, charging equipment, and battery and car condition.
Is the XC90 Plug-in Hybrid a safe car?
It is built to Volvo's protective safety standards. Every level includes Pilot Assist, the Blind Spot Information System, Rear Collision Warning, Oncoming Lane Mitigation, intersection autobrake and a driver's knee airbag.
Does the Volvo XC90 have Apple CarPlay?
Yes. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come on every level, putting your phone's apps, music and navigation on the centre display. Apple CarPlay works with iPhone 5 or newer running iOS 8 or later; keep your iPhone up to date for the best experience. Apple CarPlay and iPhone are trademarks of Apple Inc.
Does the Volvo XC90 have Google built-in?
Yes. Google Assistant, Google Maps and Google Play are built into the centre display. Google services are enabled through a digital services package included for four years; after that, new terms and fees apply if you choose to renew. Google, Google Maps and Google Play are trademarks of Google LLC.
How many seats does the XC90 Plug-in Hybrid have?
Seven, in three rows, on every level sold in South Africa. The third row has its own air conditioning, and an integrated booster cushion is built in.
Is the XC90 Plug-in Hybrid the same car as the Volvo EX90?
No. The XC90 Plug-in Hybrid combines a petrol engine with an electric motor and a battery you charge from an outlet. The Volvo EX90 is a different, fully electric seven-seat SUV.
How is the XC90 Plug-in Hybrid different from the XC90 mild hybrid?
The plug-in hybrid has a larger battery that you charge from an outlet, so it can drive up to 84 km on electric power alone (WLTP). The XC90 mild hybrid has a 48-volt system that supports its petrol engine and never needs plugging in.
What is the XC90 Black Edition?
A 2027 version of the XC90 Plug-in Hybrid Ultra finished in gloss black: a Black Edition grille with a high-gloss black insert, 21-inch glossy black wheels, high-gloss black trim and ventilated Nappa leather upholstery in Charcoal. It comes in Onyx Black, Crystal White, Denim Blue or Vapour Grey. It costs from R 1 966 500 including VAT.
Range, fuel and energy consumption, charging and power figures are preliminary, based on WLTP testing and Volvo Cars' own estimates and calculations for the XC90, and are not guaranteed. Real-world results depend on driving behaviour, conditions, temperature, charging equipment and battery condition. Vehicle certification pending.
