Well many cars can handle on-roads and off road nicely. But when it comes to dirtier, muddier and snowier paths, most of them failed to respond. Especially when the snow starts falling, four-wheel drive or all-wheel drive is a must, and that used to severely limit options for buyers living in wintry climates. So if you wanted to drive a luxury car with high ability to run smoothly on snowy tracks VOLVO V90 CROSS COUNTRY is best option.
This car has an excellent road grip, purposefully on icy roads as well. In keeping with Volvo’s drive toward efficiency, the V90 Cross Country comes in o with four-cylinder engines. That makes for brisk acceleration, but the Cross Country’s real specialty is relaxed cruising. It’s perfect for, well, crossing the country.
The Power
Volvo has been building its Cross Country models in one form or another since 1997. They build station wagons with SUV-like styling cues, including plastic body cladding and taller ride heights.
The V90 Cross Country is available with an all-aluminum, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. The engine is both turbocharged and supercharged. You can call it T6; it makes 316 horsepower at 5,700 rpm and 295 pound-feet of torque from 2,200 to 5,400 rpm. From that power the VOLVO V90 CROSS COUNTRY reaches 0 to 60 mph in just 6 seconds. A smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission sends power to all four wheels.
The Cross Country is an evolution of the V90, but from a chassis standpoint it’s an entirely new car. Equipped with the optional air suspension on the rear axle, it strikes a nice balance between firm and supple.
Safety is a core part of every Volvo. In addition to numerous airbags, the V90 Cross Country comes standard with Pilot Assist to keep it on lane. Not only this, the wagon has an automatic emergency braking, a road sign information function, and adaptive cruise control, among other features as well.
At any weather and road conditions, the Cross Country’s all-wheel drive turns it into a true winter fighter. Besides all, it as an ergonomic interior with high-quality materials and a slick portrait-oriented touch-screen display.
