Volvo S90 is the priced-right, classy way to ride or drive
Volvo, hands down, is the best and most significant brand in Grasso’s Garage. It’s because of their effortless ways of chart-topping the big three: luxury, comfort and price.
Volvo, since 2017, has been a chart-topper due to their exclusive redesign, powertrain efficiency and great styling that keeps them at the top of the luxury list.
In competition with brands like Genesis and Audi, the S90 is similarly designed and sized to the G90 and A8. I’m a Volvo XC60 owner, and the S90 is a great large sedan that is exceptionally comfortable and powerful and has all of the safety bells and whistles that anyone can ask for, similar to their entire fleet.
Powered by a Volvoproven, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, with electric motors and paired with a eight-speed Geartronic automatic transmission, this combination produces 455 horsepower and 523 pound-feet of torque. It is ultra-smooth, quickly accelerating and very quiet for the driver and passengers. It’s warrantied with four-year/50,000-mile limited-warranty coverage, while Volvo On-call roadside assistance is included. Complimentary factory-scheduled maintenance is also included for three years or 36,000 miles — win!
On the interior, the 12.3inch progressive digital drive display and a 9-inch ipad-shaped integrated touchscreen infotainment system are paired with Google Assistant and Google Play Store that is easy to use and adapt for all ages. The Lounge package was added to our test vehicle; it costs $1,500 and includes rear armrest luxury and rear ventilated seats and front massaging seats.
As mentioned, Volvo is easily the best auto brand, and the flagship S90 is no different. It is the pricedright, classy way to ride or drive. When it comes to recommendations, I am an open book and hold no bars from my opinion. My best friend Jon has driven a Volvo most recently, and his favorite vehicle, hands down, is his S90.
