The 2018 Volvo S90 is a premium midsize sedan that offers state-of-the-art safety and tech features, powerful engine options, and class-leading rear-seat legroom. For the 2018 model year, the Volvo S90 got a significant 4.7 inch increase in its wheelbase which dramatically increases rear-seat legroom, making it the most spacious in its class. Volvo also offers a wide variety of additional standard equipment on the T5 and T6 all-wheel drive models this year. Powerful, smooth, and responsive, the S90 easily competes with the competition. Its powerful turbocharged engine options offer an exhilarating driving experience while the 8-speed automatic transmission shifts effortlessly. With the standard semi-autonomous drive system called Pilot Assist, the S90 can easily drive in stop-and-go and highway traffic.
