The first generation was launched in 2002, at the North American International Auto Show. It was built on the Volvo P2 platform, which it shared with the first generation Volvo S80.
At the end of 2014, the second-generation XC90 was debuted. It was built on a new global platform, called Scalable Product Architecture or SPA for short. Both generations of the XC90 have won Motor Trend's SUV of the Year award in their debuts.
Volvo introduced its Adventure Concept Car at the North American International Auto Show in January of 2001. Their aim was to gauge the reaction of the public to the new vehicle. In January 2002, the XC90 was debuted at the North American International Auto Show.
At the time of its 2003 launch, the XC90 was available in two trim levels -- the 2.5 T and the T6. The 2.5 T was the base version and offered a 2.5 L B5254T2 ""T5"" turbocharged inline-five engine, which produced 208 hp and 236 lb⋅ft mated to an Aisin co-developed 5-speed AW55-50/51 automatic. The T6 offered a 2.9 L B6294T twin-turbocharged inline-six with 268 hp and 280 lb⋅ft mated to a GM-sourced, Volvo-modified 4-speed 4T65EV/GT automatic. While the 2.5T came standard with FWD, a Haldex Traction AWD system was available. The T6 was only offered with the AWD system.
In 2005, a Yamaha V8 engine was included. This 4.4 L Volvo B8444S engine turned out 288 hp for the first few models; later, models were upgraded to 311 hp and 325 lb⋅ft of torque. A special version called Ocean Race Edition was debuted in early 2005.
The XC90 was given a facelift for 2007 with a 235 hp 3.2 L SI6 straight-6 engine replaced the 208 hp B524T2 straight-5 in the US for the base model. The 2007 XC90 launched in April 2006 at the New York Auto Show.
The first-generation Volvo XC90 continues to be sold in China as the XC Classic. There is only one engine option to choose from, a 2.5 L turbo petrol 5-cylinder engine producing 220 hp. All XC Classics come with AWD as standard and either a 5-speed automatic transmission or 5-speed manual.
Volvo announced that second-generation XC90s would go into production in late 2014, with vehicles officially going on sale in 2015. The present generation XC90 was based on Volvo's new platform, marketed as the Scalable Product Architecture (SPA)platform.
All engine options for the XC90 are as follows, 2.0 L 4-cylinder Drive-E powertrains with Volvo's 8-speed Geartronic transmission. The line-up includes two petrol engines: a twin charged 320 hp T6 and a turbocharged 254 hp T5, producing 350, two diesel engines: a twin turbo 235 hp D5 and a turbocharged 190 hp D4. The XC90 Twin Engine is the top-of-the-line model; it's a plug-in hybrid, producing 400 hp by combining the more powerful petrol engine at the front with an electric motor at the rear.
The T8 plug-in hybrid variant of the XC90 is based on the technology used in the Volvo V60 PHEV. The batteries are seated at the center of the vehicle can be charged using an electric vehicle charger or can they can store energy recovered by utilizing regenerative brakes. Volvo says that the XC90 T8 does not take any away passenger or cargo space to accommodate the hybrid equipment.
Volvo moved production equipment of the first-generation to China, which ended Swedish production at the end of 2014, renaming the car as the Volvo XC Classic (or Volvo XC90 Classic). So, when your XC90 breaks down, make sure you have your Volvo XC90 service manual with you to make the job easier.
