NHTSA CRASH TEST RESULTS
See all Safety Rating Results
| Overall Safety Rating |
Frontal crash ratings: Driver: No Test Passenger: No Test Side crash ratings: Driver:  Rear Passenger: Results based on a 35 MPH frontal crash and 38.5 MPH side crash. Results are reported in a range of one to five stars, with five stars indicating the best crash protection for vehicles within the same weight class. This test used driver and passenger belts and airbags. NHTSA ROLLOVER RESISTANCE RATING: The Rollover Resistance Rating is an estimate of your risk of rolling over if you have a single vehicle crash. It does not predict the likelihood of that crash. The Rollover Resistance Rating utilizes a "fishhook" maneuver which is a series of abrupt turns at varying speeds to see how "top-heavy" a vehicle is. The more "top-heavy" the vehicle, the more likely it is to roll over. The lowest rated vehicles (1-star) are at least four times more likely to roll over than the highest rated vehicles (5-stars). |
2005 Volvo XC90 Review
"XC90 adds its first V8 engine for 2005. This SUV is based on Volvo's S80 car platform and isn't intended for off-road use. It seats up to seven and has a combination rear liftgate/drop-down tailgate. The 2.5T model has a 208-hp turbo 5-cyl engine, 5-speed automatic transmission, and front-wheel drive or optional all-wheel drive. The T6 has a 268-hp turbo inline 6-cyl, 4-speed automatic, and AWD. The V8 has 311 hp, a 6-speed automatic, and AWD. All transmissions have a manual shift gate. The AWD system lacks low-range gearing. Antilock 4-wheel disc brakes and antiskid/traction control are standard. So is Volvo's Roll Stability Control, designed to activate the antiskid system to reduce chances of a rollover. Also included are front torso side airbags and head-protecting curtain side airbags that cover all seating rows. Standard on the V8, the 3rd-row seat is otherwise part of the Versatility Package. The 7-seat versions come with rear load-leveling suspension and 3rd-row climate and audio controls. The 2nd-row bench splits 40/20/40 and is available with an integrated child-booster seat. Leather upholstery is optional on the 2.5T, standard on T6 and V8. Seventeen-inch wheels are standard; 18s are optional. Other options include rear obstacle detection and a navigation system."
