"Sized and priced to compete with the Acura MDX and Lexus RX 330, Volvo's first SUV is based on the company's S80 car platform. XC90 is a 4-dr unibody wagon with turbocharged power and a choice of 5-passenger seating or 7 with an available 3rd-row bench. Its rear liftgate teams with a smaller, drop-down tailgate. The entry-level 2.5T comes with front-wheel or all-wheel drive, a 208-hp 5-cyl engine, and 5-speed automatic transmission. The T6 AWD has a 268-hp 6 cyl and a 4-speed automatic. Both transmissions have a manual shift gate. XC90's AWD lacks low-range gearing and isn't intended for severe off-road use. Antilock 4-wheel disc brakes and antiskid/traction control are standard. So is Volvo's new Roll Stability Control, designed to activate the antiskid system to reduce the chance of a rollover if sensors detect unusually rapid or severe body lean. Also included are front torso side airbags and head-protecting curtain side airbags covering front and 2nd-row seats. The 3rd-row seat is part of the optional Versatility Package, which includes 3rd-row curtain-airbag coverage, a load-leveling rear suspension, and 3rd-row climate and audio controls. XC90's 2nd-row bench is split 40/20/40 and offers an optional integrated child-booster seat for its middle section. All XC90s have wood interior trim. Leather upholstery is optional on the 2.5T, standard on T6. The T6 also adds a sunroof, in-dash CD changer, power passenger seat, and 17-inch wheels instead of 16s; all these are available for 2.5Ts. Other options include rear-obstacle detection, navigation system, heated front seats, and, for T6, 18-inch wheels. Due later in the year is an optional rear DVD entertainment system."
