Brand new luxury SUV Volvo Cars is one of the most advanced on the road.

Used cars, "dumb", to be simple machine. You can insert the key, you have to park it, it can drive, the eccentric, and away you go. Rinse and repeat. He worked in all its components with the keys in the ignition. You can go with you in the driver's seat.The engine was running when it was only "alive" was. He was out when he was dead. He returned with the key, as long as they did not do anything. But now, through the car was finished.On the car's wheels are large computers. They are connected and comfortable. You can learn your habits. You can also compensate for your mistakes.

Volvo redesigned 2016 XC90 crossover with her car has established itself at the forefront of this new category. In the park itself, and orient themselves, and to maintain distance between vehicles in traffic - can also detect pedestrians, and can prevent you from driving into oncoming traffic.It also comes with its own smartphone application.Volvo XC90 connected on the road is one of the most modern cars that put together a combination of innovations. Here are some of the highlights.Volvo Cars is the car's features are handled in which a tablet-sized touch panel featuring the instrument panel components 2016 Volvo XC90, the view SensusVolvo North America.Meeting Senus, virtual assistant VolvoIn our test road XC90, we cultured Serie sister, age is described as Senus. Climate control, navigation features, including the XC90 can control where it interfaces.

At the center of all the portable tablet screen size - it seats, headrests, vehicle dynamics, and smart phone integration is also where you can adjust. We have seen a similar interface on Tesla vehicles.

City Security: You, pedestrians and cyclists that protects the technology

Volvo City Safety feature, actually designed to help prevent collisions which Volvo braking technology, depend on the auto industry that is a collection of features.Auto braking and the growing number of cars are visible, but the interpretation is available on Volvo new car for the first time in the world that are involved - XC90 left or right into oncoming traffic stop, and the worldwide clash will be one of the most common causes."Vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians are concerned with, in some cases, day and night," senior technical experts Volvo Safety Center, Lotta Jakobsson camera in the car, using a series of sensors and radar, says.Volvo is probably best known for its commitment to safety.

Bold design, tasteful aesthetics, and thoughtful touches

Just take a look at it. Now Scandinavian swoop following the curve, design XC90 minimum seven passengers and more beautiful and more luxurious look taillamps manages to sign her intense LED headlights, Audi Q7 or Acura MDX and confident just fresher and BMW X5 or Range Rover HSE and more aggressive. Ed Luo a "new and bold without polarization," he said. Really appreciate the design, you really should see the XC90 next opponent and that is exactly what Volvo wants and needs. Currently, inscription caps T6 at the squad level. And the speed and R is lower design costs, and soon T8 XC90 plug-in hybrid will be on top of the price range. Inside, the diagonal with the book a sense of calm and luxury blooms, open walnut layer pores. Soft napa leather seats, dash, door panels (which corresponds to the key fob); Satin finished metal trim genuine; Central controller for the iPad screen size is ongoing.The best example of this, as they are now, and with all the Powertrain / Chassis Control (Twist Door Knob ignition, fixed gear, cylindrical push mode selector, auto and wait-button hand brake) before the driver's right hand Dutt Center which brings. On the dash or in the driver's left leg above the shadow is not a beak. Otherwise (more about this later), wide and centrally located and a hard button for first-class functions (hazard lights, front / rear defrost, pause / play, previous / next track) is surrounded by the actual size (Can you believe it?) under the handle Sensus touch. Second row passengers slide / tilt is the air-conditioning vents, but also a touch-sensitive control area is two. We also continued with this generation of outdoor seats are still independently integrated child booster seat in the second row slides back in front ($ 250) are pleased to provide a report. The same 85.7 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row to a maximum of 41.8 behind the third row and 13 cubic feet of luggage room which works to expand the actual seats fold flat applies. Feature provided by the standard heated and praised the overwhelming majority of our Editors / enough and hidden from the third row, 10-way power adjustable front seats inscription sizing, and a huge second-row seats, ventilated. It is a bit hard to get there, but you have enough third grade headroom (35.5 inches) and modest tour ft (31.9 inches) will allocate space offers a full-size human.Volvo China's current ownership engineering or packaging Volvo orientation, innovation or safety rein that any concern is not justified. In fact, since the purchase of Volvo from Ford in 2010, Geely Volvo engine plant alone has invested hundreds of millions of dollars, and Volvo's reputation for safety research and innovation has expanded. A large part of the research off-road events led to compression of the spinal cord injury has been shown that the XC90 and the first seat by absorbing energy is growing. Wing now common for active safety equipment and stationary XC90 makes its way: adaptive cruise control, road sign reader, blind spot and cross-traffic alert, warning Lin / Save departure, and system alarms (for cyclists and pedestrians both) collision avoidance warning from the Volvo safety driver drowsiness, to name a few.

Under pressure:

A supercharger and turbocharger for forced induction engines use both double charge, or, mid screech '80s- Lancia Delta S4 Group B rally cars and back to produce a copy of the existing road goes. The mini golf gates other than the United States in various forms by the Volkswagen Group in the car was used at a later time. Twin shipping hypothesis lower rpm (slow-drain flow and thus increases at least) with the throttle crank-driven supercharger decline in production could be avoided by filling in the displacement of small diesel engine is contained in the interval.

 Throughout the entire rev range, as expected losses within the Twin strange noises, and the complexity of the system and hand over power smoothly and. Twin Volvo charged, inline four well isolated 2.0 liter in this application (which also used in the car S60). This is a remarkable V-8 of 316 horsepower and a torque of 295 £ feet, £ 5000 is rated to pull up produces, and 20/25/22 mpg EPA city / highway / combined estimated earns. If you turn it off, however, in the engine compartment, you may feel a little fluctuation. But power is linear and smooth feel, and that's a whopping 2.3 seconds faster than the previous 3.2-liter common XC90 AWD naturally, aspirated six-cylinder engine with model inscription 4720 £ 0-60 mph in 6.7 seconds is enough to pay. 

 And the new T6 with a 6.2-liter V8 in the BMW X 5 xDrive35i and Cadillac Escalade thirsty turbocharged inline six is ​​less than a second behind. Buyers such as concerns about the novel engine, and Volvo has been involved and offers roadside assistance for four years to a four-year / 50,000-mile powertrain guarantee to remove, so it's no should not need. The first 36,000 miles or three years free maintenance.Tools:

Four-wheel drive Volvo XC90 T6 2016 line model, and the same eight-speed transmission, and engine specific mode feature. Each mode on / off, brakes, air suspension, dashboard, and the climate control system, power steering, engine / transmission / AWD, auto help influence the behavior of the power that is his own image. Distributed dynamic settings, rest, environment, off-road, and includes individual programming. Carrier strongly automatic transmission gear (sixth gear 1: 1) early and especially in dynamic mode, 45 mph unduly hesitant or race for top gear without reducing the speed of change quirks.  

Like most of automation, you throttle a quick stab wounds / lift will get confused with. Shift gears manually specified with low despite possible, we like the R-Design trim shift paddles was the inscription period will be at the top is not. Testing our curriculum, and within 113 feet of 60 mph 2016 Volvo XC90 T6 closed inscription and the figure of eight course MT 26.8 seconds achieved the impressive lap, and a fast Acura MDX The SH-AWD (27.6) and Range Rover HSE (27.7) and the relationship with BMW X-5 xDrive35i.

Riding on the wind:

Our laboratory with air springs front and rear transverse leaf spring coil act quickly to replace the standard four-corner air a moratorium ($ 1,800), have benefited from. Extremely smooth ride in comfort mode and lowers 0.8 inches and even riding strong to resist it sharpens the handling capacity of more lean body in a narrow dynamic. But / land about 30 seconds maximum explaining that raises and lowers the car similar to Mercedes-Benz Airmatic suspension mainly contrast, XC90 (the garden require the car to be in, six rooms, two of which Modes are air suspension, is only about 3 to load and easy to use, dynamic, environment, comfort, and off-road :) low to high. Off-road mode raises the XC90 1.6 inches, choose a very low altitude over the buttons in the cargo trailer or cargo facility easy to carry as much as 2.0 inches below normal height to the millimeter by millimeter Wade. In all, the 3.6-inch range is phenomenal, and we fast response and flexibility never seen this kind of air suspension.

Besides maximizing land and active off-road mode, auto stop / start disables variation, lock (dynamic mode using ESC) Electronic Stability Control AWD first place, improving responses directed act softens, and deputy low speed control (hill descent) puts. LSC to 5 miles per hour is set to default, but a gentle throttle inputs running speed takes more than a little like some of the other SUV cruise control officer's foot / button Fishing is required to do something faster than it has been modified. (Especially with growing deep canyons, dirt soft) was a little challenge on rugged dirt hill scrambling, but cross the river to dry here and there, and with the XC90 champions trail or gravel road.  

The different data about detention and electronic nanny also looking in the other direction around the high-speed corners, which allows for a reasonable amount of sliding out of position on the road can be driven like a car rally. We have around 25 mph XC90 automatically default to rest mode, however, is seen, and believe that I managed to get back to dirt or paved roads were. There is more leeway for the rebound damping, so as certainly plentiful on the ground and is 10.9 inches, and the comments in the off-road mode when driving when we saw a thing. In other words, it has reached the end of its range of wheel travel in the region to stop the XC90 looks as if it was leading. Bonk. Bonk. There was no loss of control or damage caused, but it was upsetting to hear with it.

Touch the screen as it should be unaware:

The center console highlight is the all-new Volvo Sensus 9-inch screen. State-of-the-art unit Cadillac CUE system overly ambitious and loss before deadly found in Tesla and light years is the largest, and touch the screen, pinch and severe blows to respond quickly with minimal latency is no different from steep early Volvo, a clear, clear graphics features. And strong or somewhat difficult for button control supplements. The logical layout and intuitive operation requires virtually no orientation.
