Understanding 2025 Volvo XC90 Trims: Core, Plus, and Ultimate

Ultimate: Volvo’s top-of-the-line trim boasts premium materials like Nappa leather seats, a more advanced sound system, a head-up display, and additional features.

What makes the Volvo XC90 Stand Out?

1) Every trim comes equipped with the Volvo IntelliSafe Suite, which consists of:

  • Pilot Assist: Combines Adaptive Cruis Control (ACC) with lane centering to keep your car away from others at a safe distance.
  • Collision Avoidance with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB): Uses radar and camera to prevent or lessen the severity of potential collisions. 
  • Blind Spot Information System with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert: This lets you know when a vehicle is in your blind spot. 
  • Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keeping Assist: Warning system to let you know when you’re drifting out of the lane and gently steer you back. 
  • Run-Off Road Mitigation: This prevents you from accidentally leaving the road by applying steering torque and braking.
  • Driver Alert System: Monitors driving behavior and warns you to take a break if signs of drowsiness or inattention are found. 

2) Choice between a mild hybrid or plug-in hybrid

You have the option to choose which engine suits your lifestyle. The Volvo XC90 B5 and B6 models use a 48-volt mild hybrid system to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. This is done through electric motor assist during accelerations, regenerative braking, and idle stop/start. 

The Volvo XC90 T8 plug-in hybrid allows short-distance electric-only driving, quicker acceleration, and reduced fuel consumption. For this option, you’ll need access to an at-home or public charging station. 

3) Volvo’s air purification technology

Volvo’s Advanced Air Cleaner removes up to 95% of hazardous PM 2.5 particles, like exhaust and wildfire smoke, from entering the cabin. Certified asthma and allergy-friendly by ASL, Volvo’s air purification in new XC90’s helps you and your passengers enjoy better air quality.

Cartelligent’s Opinion:

“The XC90 is stylish, safe, comfortable, and well-appointed.  Most clients like the size of this suv, which is smaller than most three row suvs, yet offers 7 passenger capability to those who need it.  Additionally, it’s available also as a 6 passenger configuration with second row captain’s chair seating or the middle row bench seat.”

Ethan Sparrow, Cartelligent Expert Advisor

“Elegant and Practical! I recommend the Volvo XC90 to many clients because it seamlessly combines luxurious comfort, beautiful design, and state-of-the-art safety features. With its roomy interior, smooth handling, and innovative technology, it stands out as the premier choice for those looking for a sophisticated and secure SUV experience. Providing seating for six or seven passengers in both Plug-In Hybrid and Gasoline engine options makes it ideal for anyone in need of a three-row vehicle.”

Hilary Brophy, Cartelligent Expert Advisor

“The Volvo XC90 sums up the perfect blend of luxury and practicality, Scandinavian elegance and robust performance. The XC90 delivers. It’s a versatile SUV that caters to families seeking comfort and safety without compromising on style or innovation. The plug-in Hybrid version is the perfect trim either for full electric day to day commute or long weekend trip that requires a full tank of gas.”
