Volvo XC90 review: Swedish carmaker comes out swinging with premium SUV - AM-online
It may be the Swedish brand’s most eagerly awaited car in a decade – before UK Volvo dealers even received demonstrators for launch events, they took more than £150 million worth of orders for the new XC90 seven-seat SUV. Volvo Car UK said at the launch that it has received 3,500 orders for the XC90, from its first year production allocation of 4,500 units. The XC90 is the first car on Volvo’s new Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) platform, developed in-house since its acquisition from Ford by Chinese group Geely. There will be eight new models by the end of the decade, including a new V40 compact hatchback and an XC40 compact crossover SUV built on a new small car platform. To attract conquest sales, Volvo will offer compelling finance offers, including PCP and personal contract hire, together with Swedish brand values and innovative technology such as in-car connectivity and safety systems that protect occupants if... Given the demand for the new XC90 from launch, Volvo Car UK is not openly incentivising buyers other than to offer a 5. 9% APR PCP offer for retail customers and a 36-month/30,000-mile contract hire plan from £569 per month for business users.
