Free as a bird 2015 Volvo XC90 D5 AWD Momentum 2.0D

Volvo Review

Birds are well designed, right?

All feathers in the right places, keen eyesight to spot dangers and opportunities, physically engineered to go wherever they please in all weathers, while also being beautiful to behold.

models have been quite anticipated by Volvo die-hards and others interested in the SUV (sport utility vehicle) sector.

The Swedish design aspect, minimalist and clean by nature, is evident at the controls.

There are only eight buttons – the rest is controlled through the touch screen, placed in the centre of the dashboard. Their media information says, “the interior is luxurious, dominated by the class-leading centre Being as free as a bird today takes some console HMI system that delivers all the doing. Our modern lifestyle contains us within walls, in front of multiple screens. But vehicle’s functions to your finger tip.”

One of the ‘Volvo-esque’ things about nature made our eyes to take in a wider view. these controls is the portrait-orientated So, it is great to get behind the wheel of a digital touch screen. From the opening sophisticated car and take in that wider view page, I found it quite easy to flick through – actual real life unfolding before your eyes. and navigate my way around to get the This new XC90 range, recently available information I wanted.

These new One savvy innovation was being able to read the travelling speed straight off the front windscreen.

SPECS

because these new luxury vehicles are so powerful – and so quiet – that you can have the radio going and being enjoying the music and the drive, and have little idea of how those good feelings are being translating to your minutely increasing speed.

By the end of the day I had become very used to looking at these two projected figures and as a quick and useful measurement and reference, it was excellent.

Driving the Volvo was a fairly serene experience. I felt safe knowing that Volvo has built its reputation on safety, security and driver support. Appreciating this car was designed for the ultimate comfort and care of occupants; it’s hard to fault really.

It’s almost clinical in its execution on the road – you get exactly what you expect – a polished, perfect performance.

It’s great from an emissions perspective that it stops the engine at intersections and turned itself back on once the accelerator is engaged. Driving around town was totally smooth and the engine purred with a very pleasant low and confident rhythmic hum.

Handling just like a road car, even the bigger mass of a seven-seater felt normal.

It was only when it came to parking that you realise how big these beasts are compared to everyday sedans and hatchbacks.

The new XC90 is packed with intuitive safety technologies as standard. As well as supporting in the daily act of driving, the gear helps avoid or mitigate collisions and protects occupants in the event of an incident.

One such example is the vehicle constantly monitors its proximity to others. If you get too close too soon, the brakes automatically pre-prime so when you get around to reacting yourself physically, a lot of the shock has been potentially taken out of any impact.

And if you start drifting into the wrong lane – then gently the car guides itself back to the correct path. Knowing that the Volvo is looking after itself can make you feel either clinically disconnected from it, or totally relaxed in the realisation that all you have to do as a driver is make a decision about where you want to go, and head on out.

Volvo vehicles are manufactured in Sweden and most of the cars passing through the Tauranga dealership are pre-sold.

There is a wide selection of add-on accessories available. About half the cars sold

by Duncan and Ebbett have specially chosen accessories added by individual buyers. Those requirements are forwarded to Sweden so the cars can be built and assembled to suit the exacting requirements of the buyer.

The new engineering of the XC90 incorporates Volvo’s new Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) platform and innovative four-cylinder Drive-E engine technology.

The XC90 Momentum I drove had Blind Spot Information System, heated front seats, and 20” wheels with a double-spoke diamond cut matte tech black design. The Driver Support Pack, worth $3990, included 360 degree surround view parking camera, adaptive cruise control with lane keeping aid and pilot assist, and head-up display.

It also had roof racks, mud flaps and side step running boards.

Volvo Cars’ flagship XC90 was awarded the title 2015 Company Car of the Year (large SUV category) in Germany – beating German car manufacturers on their home turf. The win was based on the overall competence of the car in the large SUV segment.

If the XC-tasy of feeling free as a bird in a Swedish super brand is your thing – then you’ll love this new line up indeed. Driver D
