The price of 2017 Volvo V90 Cross Country styled wagon will start from AUD 99,900 before on-road costs, or AUD 110,060 drive-away – the latter coming from Volvo’s Australian online car configurator.

The V90 Cross Country will come in one grade and with one engine; the D5 2.0-litre twin-turbo diesel and in Inscription trim only. The Swedish manufacturer has clearly decided to take a similar approach to its most natural rival Audi A6 Allroad.


The D5 turbo-diesel is shared with the S90, V90 and XC90, developing a meaty 235 Hp of power and 480 Nm of torque, closely competing with the V6 diesel-powered Audi A6 Allroad, which produces 218 Hp and 500 Nm from its 3.0-litre single-turbo unit. Shifting gears is an eight-speed automatic transmission as standard.

Standard features for the V90 Cross Country D5 Inscription include 19-inch alloy wheels, adaptive LED headlights, electric folding mirrors, four-zone climate control, nappa leather upholstery, 12.3-inch digital driver’s display, electrically-adjustable front seats with driver’s memory, powered tailgate, satellite navigation and keyless entry,.


Safety features, the off-road-styled V90 comes equipped with adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking (AEB), lane keep assist, blind spot monitoring, front and rear parking sensors, rear-view camera, Isofix child seat mounts, hill start assist, hill descent control, and rear cross traffic alert.

The Volvo V90 Cross Country is scheduled to launch in Australia sometime during the first half of this year, with this latest development suggesting the new wagon will be arriving sooner rather than later.
