The 2008 Volvo XC90 gets minor trim changes. This premium midsize SUV offers seating for up to seven passengers. Three models are available. The 3.2 has a 235-hp 3.2-liter 6-cylinder engine. The V8 model has a 311-hp 4.4-liter V8, as does the Sport, which adds unique interior and exterior trim, sport suspension, and 19-inch wheels in place of 18s. All XC90s use a 6-speed automatic transmission. Maximum towing capacity is 3870 lb for the V6 and 4960 lb for the V8. All-wheel drive is standard for the V8 and Sport and available for the 3.2 in place of front-wheel drive. The AWD lacks a low-range gear for off-roading. Standard safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, curtain side airbags, and front side airbags. Standard on V8s and Sports and optional on the 3.2 is a 3rd-row seat; included with it are a load-leveling suspension and 3rd-row climate and audio controls. XC90's 40/20/40 split 2nd-row bench is available with an integrated child booster seat. Steering-linked bi-xenon headlamps are optional, as is Volvo's Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) designed to detect and warn of unseen objects nearby. Rear obstacle detection and a navigation system are also available. Leather upholstery is optional for 3.2s, standard on the V8 and Sport. Newly standard for all models is an auto-dimming rearview mirror.
