New 2023 Volvo V90 Cross Country ( Overview ). HIGHS
– Tasteful exterior styling, high-end interior appointments, more cargo friendly than a sedan.
LOWS
– Pseudo-SUV ride height gives it a truckish feel, infotainment icons are too small, not as quick as rival station wagons.

– If you’re ok with its not-quite-an-SUV status, the V90 Cross Country offers a premium, cargo-friendly package with polished curb appeal.
– Pros
A stylish executive wagon
High-quality, well-designed interior
Strong safety ratings
– Cons
Special order only
Larger wheels impact ride quality
Most will find XC90 more practical
Perhaps the most Volvo vehicle in the Swedish automaker’s modern lineup, the V90 Cross Country is a supremely luxurious wagon. Despite being a stylish, safe, and tech-laden package, the V90 suffered from low enough sales to become a special-order-only model. Additionally, it’s only offered in the high-riding Cross Country configuration. The V90 Cross Country competes most directly with the Mercedes-Benz E-Class All Terrain and Audi A6 Allroad.
