The 2014 Volvo XC90 is one of the best-loved luxury crossover SUVs in the auto industry. Two big reasons why are its exceptional powertrain and its class-leading commitment to occupant safety. Let us take a closer look at both!

A six-speed automatic transmission with manual shift control is paired with this power plant, as is front-wheel drive, though all-wheel drive is available too. Together, this powertrain delivers strength and speed: the 2014 Volvo XC90 can tow up to 3,970lbs. and zip from 0-60 in 8.7 seconds. Moreover, this combo produces solid mileage numbers: 25MPG hwy / 16MPG city with front-wheel drive, and 23MPG hwy / 16MPG city with all-wheel drive.
