Appearance Design

The side of the car still follows the simple body design, with a slender and less conspicuous waistline extending from the front to the rear of the car in one go.
Equipped with 20-inch multi-spoke wheels, it looks extremely simple and capable, which is in line with Volvo’s pursuit of simplicity.
In the same way, at the rear of the car, the Volvo family’s iconic “Viking Axe” rear taillight design is still retained. With its blessing, the originally tall and sturdy rear of the car is a bit more “murderous”, and the aura has changed. more adequate.
In general, the new Volvo XC90 T8 model did not make a big fuss about the shape, and still uses most of the iconic design language of the current model.

Of course, the exquisite crystal handle is still retained, after all, its price belongs to the category of top matching!

It is worth mentioning that after the power system of the new Volvo XC90 T8 version has been optimized, the comprehensive power of the system reaches 335kW, and the peak torque is increased to 709N m. Its power parameters are even much higher than that of the BMW X5 plug-in hybrid version equipped with a 3.0T engine. It can be said that it is the existence of a real pig and a tiger!
