Volvo V90 Cross Country boasts excellent noise isolation, which does not let the sounds into the cabin, even when the car moves on country roads.

When driving on smooth asphalt, the cabin is truly at home.

On a light off-road the «Swede» feels excellent. For the maximum comfort it is necessary to activate the mode Off-road — the driver receives help of electronic systems, the transmission works more accurately and more smoothly.

The mode Sport does not considerably improve dynamics, and it is natural, as it is focused on measured driving, and the preset Comfort is optimum for it.

But the car overcomes steep turns equally smoothly, irrespective of options.
