If you haven't had the opportunity to visit our Northfield Volvo dealership for a look at the 2016 Volvo XC90 just yet, then at the very least we hope you've heard a little something about it. In fact, we hope the one thing that stuck out to you about this vehicle's many capabilities was its technological prowess.
If you need a little more evidence that in-car technology is out of this world, just consider the fact that the 2016 Volvo XC90 recently earned the Yankee Cup Technology Award presented by the New England Motor Press Association (NEMPA). The Yankee Cup is awarded to an automotive feature or system that significantly improves the motoring experience through safety measures, cost-saving tactics, or simply the joy of the experience.
The 2016 Volvo XC90 was selected following the input of Massachusetts Institute of Technology engineering faculty and the award was announced at the NEMPA annual meeting and awards dinner held on the campus of MIT in Cambridge, Mass.
The 2016 Volvo XC90 has been completely reconsidered as well as redesigned. The car's designers and engineers have reimagined driving from the driver's seat itself, doing away with the buttons that once crowded a driver's immediate area and replacing them with the convenience of a touchscreen and a head-up display as well as steering wheel-based thumb controls and revolutionary voice control. Finally, integrated cloud-based applications enable a simpler approach to functions such as streaming music, accessing personal Apple iOS devices via the car's touchscreen display or utilizing the first integrated Park and Pay system in the world.
Never before has in-car technology felt more intuitive or more natural, which means that it has never been easier to steer into the future of driving with your eyes securely on the road ahead. Visit our dealership today to see it all for yourself!
