Overview

Written by automotive expert Michael Cantu

Updated: 11/8/2026

The S90 is Volvo's largest sedan positioned above the smaller S60 and is closely related to the V90 Cross Country wagon. Its design hasn't changed much since 2017, but the S90's cool and classy exterior and handsome cabin have aged well and still look sharp yet understated. Volvo has kept the S90's tech and advanced driver aids up-to-date, most of which come standard, though its 9-inch center touchscreen is looking small by today's standards. Unlike some of the S90's rivals, the Volvo isn't a sport sedan, but it exudes other qualities detailed in the Edmunds spotlight below.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

Driven, tested, rated by automotive expert Reese Counts

Good

6.6

out of 10

We drove the 2025 Volvo S90 on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Driving experience

7.3/10

How does the Volvo S90 drive? We tested the Volvo S90 T8 AWD plug-in hybrid. That means there's both a gasoline engine and a battery pack that allows for an estimated 38 miles of all-electric range. Acceleration is quick and relatively smooth, and there's plenty of power for passing on the highway, though it sometimes takes the transmission a second to kick down a gear. It's easy to come to a smooth stop, and the brakes are strong enough to give you confidence in panic situations.

This isn't a sport sedan, but the S90 T8 AWD plug-in hybrid feels composed on winding roads. The steering lacks road feel but is light and direct, which helps make parking a breeze too. The S90 doesn't have as insulating a ride as some other luxury cars, but bumps in the road are muted rather than amplified. The climate control system works quickly and quietly. Visibility is generally good too, though the rear window is a bit narrow.

Volvo has always focused on safety, and the S90 comes with plenty of driver aids such as blind-spot warning and automatic emergency braking as standard equipment. The operation of these features isn't as smooth or unobtrusive as some we've experienced, however.

Comfort

7.7/10

How comfortable is the Volvo S90? Volvo's seats remain some of the best around. Soft but supportive padding is wrapped in great-feeling leather. There's a good bit of adjustment, and the S90 T8 AWD plug-in hybrid is available with heated and ventilated seats both front and rear.

The S90 splits the difference in size between a midsize and a full-size luxury car. There's lots of rear seat room, with plenty of space for passengers well over 6 feet tall to stretch out. Headroom is equally ample, helped by the bucket-style seats. The low seats make getting in and out a bit of a climb, but the large doors mean it's easy to swing your legs in. Getting a child safety seat in and out is a much easier task. You'll have plenty of space to move around while installing or removing a seat. Anchors are easily accessible, and the copious legroom is a boon for rear-facing seats.

We have found some of the S90's controls distracting to use while driving. The vertically oriented touchscreen greatly simplifies the control layout since there are hardly any physical buttons. But some commonly used features are buried multiple screens deep and require focus to find and press.

In-cabin tech

6.4/10

How’s the tech? The S90's Google-based infotainment system is generally pleasing, and it includes Google Assistant voice controls and an impressive Google Maps display. One high note is the excellent audio system. It's clear and loud, but it doesn't get buzzy or mushy when pushed. Volvo includes USB-C ports in both rows along with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Both are wireless.

Storage & cargo

4/10

How’s storage and cargo? The S90 T8 AWD plug-in hybrid might have more passenger space than its rivals, but its 13.5-cubic-foot trunk is one of the smallest in the class. The rear seats do fold down in a 60/40 split, which helps open up the rear at the cost of a seat or two. Storage up front isn't great either. The center console is shallow and can't even fit a pair of sunglasses. The door pockets are fine but don't fully make up for the lack of storage elsewhere.

Value

7.1/10

Is the Volvo S90 a good value? The S90 T8 AWD plug-in hybrid really shines here. It offers more passenger room, more standard features and far more power than any rival at its price. The gap increases when you stack it up against some plug-in hybrid SUVs. And it's not like Volvo was cutting corners elsewhere. The interior is handsome and clean, with excellent wood and leather trim and interesting touches.

Volvo offers a four-year/50,000-mile basic and powertrain warranty. Additionally, Volvo includes four years/unlimited miles of roadside assistance and three years/36,000 miles of free maintenance. That's as good as or better than coverage offered on just about every other plug-in hybrid around.

MPG

6.1/10

How’s the fuel economy? The S90 T8 AWD plug-in hybrid is a plug-in hybrid. The EPA estimates that it can drive about 38 miles on on all-electric power before switching over to regular hybrid operation. We've also found that Volvo's plug-in hybrid powertrain is capable of meeting or exceeding the EPA's estimate (29 mpg combined) for fuel economy in real-world driving.

X factor

9/10

This Swede oozes cool charm. Plus, the T8 AWD plug-in hybrid version has an appealing combo of up to 455 horsepower and 38 miles of all-electric range. The fact that it's wrapped is such a clean and conservative design makes it a bit of a sleeper. It's not the most engaging or athletic luxury car on the road, but it's far from boring. It stands out without standing out.

Build & Price

Buying Tips for the 2025 Volvo S90 for November

The real story here is scarcity: new 2025 Volvo S90 inventory is effectively gone nationwide, so your smartest move is to pivot to used examples instead of chasing a near-extinct new car.

Used S90 pricing starts around $47,300. That is for a used vehicle, and it is a far more realistic path than hunting for one of the last new cars.
There are about 10 used S90s available nationally. That is still limited, but it is much better than new supply, and B6 Ultra and B6 Plus appear to be the trims you are most likely to find.
Remaining new stock is so thin that trim, color, and equipment choice will be the real challenge. If you find the exact car you want, move quickly, because no fresh 2025 shipments are coming.
If you do stumble across a new one, buyers were paying about $8,200 below MSRP, or roughly 12.6% off sticker, and there are no general customer rebates to stack on top.

2025 Volvo S90 trim level differences

The 2025 Volvo S90 is a five-passenger midsize luxury sedan available in two models. Compare the 2025 Volvo S90 trim levels in-depth.

Which S90 trim does Edmunds recommend?

For a relatively small premium, we recommend opting for the Ultra trim to get the full luxury experience. In addition to the Plus' long list of features, the Ultra adds notable features like ventilated front seats with additional adjustments, premium leather upholstery, an upgraded Harman Kardon audio system, and upgraded interior materials like a crystal gear shifter. If you have the budget for it, get the T8 AWD plug-in hybrid for its impressive power and efficiency.

Competitors to consider

As compelling as the Volvo S90 is, it's up against freshly redesigned rivals like the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and BMW 5 Series. They are two of our highest-ranked midsize luxury sedans thanks to their excellent combination of tech, performance, luxury and comfort. The Lexus ES is another very comfortable midsize luxury sedan, and it's more affordable than the S90. The Genesis G80 and Audi A6 are also worthy alternatives. As for the T8 AWD plug-in hybrid, its only rival is the pricier BMW 550e xDrive. Check out our test team's thorough review of the Volvo S90 in the Expert Rating below.

Edmunds spotlight: Unique, comfortable and a plug-in hybrid option

The S90 is a bit of a tweener because it's larger than midsize rivals like the BMW 5 Series but smaller than large luxury sedans like the BMW 7 Series. And because it's priced like a midsize luxury sedan, you get more room (especially rear legroom) for your money. The S90 also leans toward comfort rather than athleticism thanks to its soft ride and very comfortable seats. It's great for folks who don't like stiff rides, but it's still well composed on curvy roads. As for performance models, while the S90 doesn't offer one, the T8 AWD plug-in hybrid gives you plenty of power — 455 horsepower to be exact. That means acceleration is on par with performance rivals without sacrificing comfort. The plug-in hybrid powertrain is unique for the class, delivering a 38-mile electric range on a full charge before switching to the efficiency of a hybrid.

It’s a BIG and Plush vehicle. +1, 2, & 6 years in!

Howie K, 06/06/2019

2019 Volvo S90 T5 Momentum 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

I generally favor sportier cars, but now I am driving a Volvo S90 T5 which I got at a lease price that I could not refuse! [Actually less per month that my former Infiniti Q50.] So I will say I got a lot of bang for the buck. This is a luxury car that one would not mind being chauffeured in. The rear passenger area is HUGE and comfortable. I can finally sit in front passenger seat … and not even have to think about adjusting the seat for rear passages leg room. The Driver’s seat is very pleasant for sitting and was designed by a Orthopedist. The package came with a Blonde (white) interior which (needs occasional cleaning), is wonderful and elegant. I would say it is the most nicely appointed car I ever owned. (And I have and had several MB and BMWs). The Tech is amazing! Though sometimes touch screen is a bit overwhelming. The great thing is that you can put the car on Auto Assist Pilot, play with it without worrying about hitting anything on the road. (PS I do not support being a distractive driver, but this practically eliminates it under the right conditions. Always be alert). The Auto Assist Pilot is from the future. It is not quite at Tesla level, but does much to keep you very safe while also removing the the tedium of Stop and Go traffic. Driving is now an ‘AHHH”. (My insurance rates actually went down when ordering this car.). It is a wonderfully solid vehicle. I will lend this Car to anyone of my family and know they will be safe in it. Gotta love that Swedish engineering. The trade off is the sporty feel of performance. The Volvo is powerful for a 4 cylinder, and I get 25.5 mpg. (Again better than my past Infinity). 0-60 is quite good for a car this size, but you do lose the ‘feel’ of lungeing acceleration. (But you can use electronic options). It is a great luxury (family) car before it is a sports car. The ride is firm as you ‘float’ over the road. It’s very nice and quiet. Long trips are a pleasure. All in all, it is a car to enjoy the ride in. If you can get great deal on this extremely plush car, don’t hesitate. (P.S. also drove the Volvo S60 for the while. The ride and feel of the S90 is much better). {A buying note: Volvo pricing is company set and it is difficult to negotiate a lower price When visiting other dealers. There is not much wiggle room so choose the dealership with the best service.} 1 Year Later - still the most comfortable car I ever owned. A pleasure to take a ride in for long road trips. Pros: Orthopedically Seats 5 w/ enough backseat legroom to play football in. No more squishing upfront seat to allow backseat room. Trunk is large doesn’t seem to be. I guess it is the awkward design. Low but deep. I Love how in winter seats & steering wheel heat up to settings automatically when temp is below 40 degrees. 3 individual temp settings (not even my son’s Tesla S has that.). The Swedes made it solid and sure foot in harsh weather. It is my go-to car in snow and slush. Much better handling than my wife’s Mercedes C Class (which isn’t bad). This car is tank-like sturdy. An idiot SUV driver already backed into my rear fender in a parking lot, and l had no major damage. Have no doubt it will do a great job protecting passengers and family in a crash. (HF). Con: I still find the screen controls cumbersome and confusing. The car has only driver 1 USB, so had to plug in a hub to use both phone and SD music card (no biggie). I have found that the autopilot is not perfect. It will veer of the road (not follow the road lines in certain situations, [with steep curves in road at higher speeds) so keep you hands on the wheel and pay some attention, [so NO napping!], but it is still a great feature 90% of the time.. But Is still a pleasure to take the stress out of everyday driving. Still love this car as the next evolution in driving. TWO YEARS IN; Still enjoying the ride. Still a very comfortable, plush and quiet car to drive. Volvo has engineered a great car. Some of the Lux tech is great. ex- I can preset the the temperature (like an alarm clock) so I can enter the car at my preferred climate for trips to and from work. However, center panel navi-entertainment system gets a bit tiresome. Not simple to operate. And the Nav system itself, while 98% accurate most of the time. Does not adjust best route for traffic & other delays. I miss my old Garmin made system (ie-MB). However, I do enjoy the S90’s ride. 6 years in- Still a great car! But some Cons: Low maintenance, except the tires have tendency to bubble. (Replaced 2). I am tired of Nav system, Voice loading is 85% wrong most of the time. No HD traffic updates either. Volvo has a very expensive annual app renewal cost. Strangely the rear windshield rubber gaskets have started to disintegrate (but no leaks yet). Got a rear end ram by a ‘distracted’ (texting) driver, but no harm to me thanks to the safety features. {$7500 in damages though. And the shop could get the Collision avoidance sensor system to work right again, but eventually Volvo fixed it. But still over all love the car.

We have a limited number of reviews for the 2025 Volvo S90, so we've included review for other years of the S90 since its last redesign.
