Bob Penkhus Volvo Cars - What to Know About the 2026 Volvo V90 Cross Country
The 2026 Volvo V90 Cross Country brings classic wagon practicality together with true all-road confidence. Elevated ride height, standard all-wheel drive, and a refined mild-hybrid powertrain create a rare blend of comfort and capability for Colorado drivers who split time between city streets and mountain passes. At Bob Penkhus Volvo Cars, we view this model as the sweet spot between a premium SUV and a luxury sedan — quiet, composed, and remarkably versatile for everyday life and weekend adventure.
Inside, the V90 Cross Country showcases Scandinavian craftsmanship with open-pore wood, tailored upholstery, and a minimalist layout that keeps your attention on the drive. Supportive seats with available ventilation and massage help on longer trips, while the panoramic roof and acoustic-laminated glass contribute to a serene cabin. Five-passenger seating is generous in both rows, and the cargo bay is wide, flat, and easy to access. Volvo’s latest driver assistance suite — including lane keeping, adaptive cruise with steering assistance, cross-traffic alerts with autobrake, and an available 360-degree camera — adds confidence in tight parking lots and on snowy commutes alike.
- Powertrain: A turbocharged 2.0L mild-hybrid system delivers smooth, responsive acceleration with an 8-speed automatic tuned for confident passing and relaxed highway cruising.
- Traction: Standard all-wheel drive continuously optimizes grip, complemented by hill-descent control and thoughtfully calibrated drive modes for changing weather and surfaces.
- Ride and handling: Long-travel suspension and a lower center of gravity than most SUVs provide planted cornering and a comfortably controlled ride over broken pavement.
- Towing: When properly equipped, the V90 Cross Country is rated for an estimated 3,500 pounds — ideal for small campers, utility trailers, or a pair of snow machines.
- Cargo versatility: Fold the rear seats for up to about 69 cubic feet of space, with nearly 20 cubic feet available behind the second row for daily errands.
- Infotainment: Google built-in for navigation, voice assistance, and apps, plus seamless Apple CarPlay integration and over-the-air update capability.
- Audio: An available Harman Kardon premium system brings crisp detail and balanced low-end for podcasts, playlists, and road-trip radio.
- Comfort tech: Heated and ventilated front seats, power cushion extensions, rear sunshades, and an available head-up display support effortless long-distance travel.
On the road, the V90 Cross Country feels composed and confident. Steering is accurate without being twitchy, the transmission shifts unobtrusively, and light regenerative braking assists with smooth deceleration. The mild-hybrid system helps recapture energy and can aid low-speed response, so the wagon feels eager off the line with less effort from the engine. Ride height and underbody protection make gravel cut-throughs and snowy trailheads feel routine — and the low load floor means bikes, skis, or camping bins slide in easily without a lift-and-heave.
