Used Volvo S90 for sale

The S90 is loaded with safety kit as standard, including automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist and Pilot Assist for semi-autonomous driving. Features like blind-spot alerts and cross-traffic warning are included in higher trims or as options. The S90 was awarded a full five-star rating by Euro NCAP.

From 2016 to 2020, the S90 came with 2.0-litre diesels (D4, D5), 2.0-litre petrols (T4, T5) and the T8 plug-in hybrid. All use an eight-speed automatic gearbox. After 2020, only the T8 plug-in hybrid remained. All options offer good efficiency and smooth performance.

Every S90 comes with a large 9-inch touchscreen, satnav, Bluetooth and DAB radio. The infotainment system feels modern but can be fiddly to use on the move due to small on-screen icons. Upmarket models add extras like a 12.3-inch digital display, Nappa leather and optional Harman Kardon audio.

The petrol T4 and T5 return up to 38mpg, with the diesels more efficient at up to around 50mpg for the D4. The T8 plug-in hybrid is the most efficient, boasting an impressive official figure of 141mpg, though real-world numbers are often lower unless regular charging is part of your routine.

Inspect for stone chips, alloy wheel damage and signs of heavy motorway use. Early 2.0-litre diesels may be affected by a Volvo recall for potential engine issues, so always confirm that necessary work has been carried out. Faults with electrics and the infotainment system are occasionally reported. For added peace of mind, consider The AA Vehicle Inspection.

The Volvo S90 scores fairly well for reliability overall. Common issues include minor electrical faults, but major issues are rare. Almost all repairs are completed under warranty and most affected cars remain driveable. Volvo’s overall reliability image is strong, which is worth noting.
