The 2009 Volvo XC90 arrives with many luxury features included and allows some high-tech options.
Standard on the base version are 17-inch wheels, wood trim, a power driver seat, and an auxiliary audio jack, says Edmunds. J.D. Power notes the standard features on every version also include power windows, locks, and mirrors; dual-zone electronic climate control; a flat-folding 40/20/40-split second-row seat; and a high-performance 160-watt, 8-speaker, MP3-capable audio system. There are three main trim levels for the 2009 Volvo XC90: the 3.2, the V8, and the new R-Design.
According to Edmunds, the V8 XC90 Volvo adds all-wheel drive and a third-row seat for seven-passenger capacity, along with a power front passenger seat, a rear air conditioner, and a sunroof.
A navigation system, Sirius Satellite Radio, and Bluetooth are optional, along with a DVD entertainment system. Kelley Blue Book likes the "upgraded audio with subwoofer and rear controls" that are options on all of the 2009 Volvo XC90 models.
Conclusion
The 2009 Volvo XC90 is outfitted with a good selection of standard features, and its options list includes some good long-haul family features.
