What do you get when you combine the safety and luxury of a Volvo with an eco-friendly, money-saving hybrid? You get the 2020 Volvo XC90 hybrid SUV. While it’s stunning to look at and loaded with impressive features, the starting price of $67,000 begs the question: Is the Volvo XC90 hybrid worth it?
Let’s take a look at what you’ll get for your money.
Performance
The 2020 Volvo XC90 hybrid SUV gives you up to 18 miles of pure electric range, 520 miles total, and up to 55 miles per gallon.
The stylish SUV also features updated brakes and suspension that deliver a smoother ride.
While you may not be shopping for a hybrid to get powerful performance, the XC90 delivers a decent showing with up to 400 horsepower.
Interior Room and Comfort
You’ll enjoy seating for 6 or 7 in a cabin that never feels cramped. All bucket seats in the 6-seat configuration gives everyone their own space for an incredibly comfortable ride. Other comfort features include:

- A panoramic roof with power shade comes standard, so you’ll have access to lots of fresh air and beautiful views.
- Active air suspension allows you to raise or lower your Volvo in real time.
Safety
Volvo has long been known for its forward-thinking safety measures, and the XC90 is no exception. You’ll feel secure on the road knowing you and your passengers are protected by innovative features such as:
- Intelligent City Safety Technology: Avoid a collision with others on the road, including cars, pedestrians, and large wildlife.
- High Definition Cameras: Parking is incredibly easy with the help of four cameras that provide a 360° view.
- Blind Spot Information System: BLIS™ provides steer assist and cross-traffic alerts. Plus, auto braking helps to prevent collisions.

Warranty
You’ll have peace of mind knowing your investment is protected by a 4-year/50,000 mile basic and powertrain warranty.
Of course, all of the above features come wrapped in a very sleek and stylish package. In fact, one thing reviewers like about this vehicle is that the dashboard doesn’t look like a cockpit. Instead, it’s minimalistic and elegant—it’s the Scandinavian-inspired design you’ve come to expect from a Volvo.
