2015 Volvo XC90 offers two petrol and one diesel engine globally, all 2.0-liter; along with a range topping plug-in hybrid version - XC90 T8. Speaking of the India, we’ll most probably get the diesel option only. Adding on the specs, the 1969 cc four-cylinder turbodiesel extracts a healthy 222 bhp at the engine speed of 4250 rpm, 470 Nm of max twist starting from 1750 rpm and maxes out at 2500 rpm. The motor will be mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission.

The SUV is based on Volvo’s new SPA (Scalable Platform Architecture) and is considerably lighter. On the inside - there’s a huge Tesla Model S like touch infotainment system which supports both Apple CarPlay and Google Android Auto.
