Strong early demand for all-new Volvo XC90

The all-new Volvo XC90 is proving to be a hit with customers even before it has appeared in showrooms, with over 16,000 orders for the brand new seven-seat SUV already received.

“These strong order numbers are very encouraging and it shows that customers obviously like what they see in the new XC90,” says Håkan Samuelsson, President and CEO of Volvo Cars.

“The new XC90 represents the new Volvo Cars and it is the first in a series of new cars to come, as we renew our entire product portfolio in the coming years.”

The new model marks the beginning of a new chapter in Volvo’s history, capturing its future design direction, incorporating its own range of new technologies and utilising its new Scalable Product Architecture (SPA ) technology and Drive-E powertrain family.

Volvo Cars say that the end result is a visually striking, premium quality seven seat SUV with world leading safety features, new powertrain technologies, an unrivalled combination of power and fuel efficiency and a superlative interior finish.

Series production of the new XC90 at the Torslanda plant in Sweden started in the last week of January, and deliveries to customers will commence this spring.

Volvo Cars’ ability to compete effectively against its competitors was underlined in 2014 after independently compiled registration figures from IHS Automotive/Polk show that the Volvo XC60 was the best-selling premium mid-size SUV in Europe.

The numbers underline that the XC60, which has been Volvo’s best-selling model since 2009, continues to be an outstanding choice in the highly competitive mid-size SUV segment.
