Fresh off a major overhaul last year, the 2014 Volvo XC90 is well-positioned to lead the crossover SUV category, fending off challenges from long-standing rivals as well as newcomers into the segment. Innovation is the name of the game for this superlative seven-passenger vehicle, and nowhere is this more evident than in the 2014 Volvo XC90 model’s state-of-the art safety features, which have helped this SUV earn yet another Top Safety Pick award from the IIHS.
Fields Volvo of Northfield, one of the best-respected Volvo dealerships serving Wilmette, knows great features when we see them – and two of our favorites on the 2014 Volvo XC90 are its Nivomat self-leveling rear suspension and its center booster cushion. The latter item is located in the second-row middle seat and provides safe and comfortable head-restraint protection for small children. And once the booster seat is no longer practical, you can fold and stow it to create a standard second-row seating layout. As for the Nivomat self-leveling rear suspension, it’s a great piece of technology that employs self-leveling rear shock absorbers to reduce rear suspension squat and instability. The result is balanced tire wear, better vehicle control, a proper headlight angle and improved aerodynamics.
Another great feature on the 2014 Volvo XC90 is its 240hp, 236 lb-ft of torque engine, which is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission with a sequential shift mode. This fantastic powertrain not only runs on regular gasoline, but also gets splendid 25MPG hwy / 16MPG city mileage.
