Volvo S90 2017 Owner's Manual
the all-new
Innovation
for people.
At Volvo Cars, we continuously innovate
in order to make your life better. Every
car, every technology, and every design
is the result of a clear vision – to put
people at the heart of everything we
do. To value people as individuals
with specific needs, and to develop
everything first and foremost through a
human-centric lens. It’s a vision that has
always driven us from the start and will
continue to drive us into the future.
It has inspired us to create the likes
of the three-point safety belt and sideimpact airbags – inventions that have
saved lives and changed automotive
history. And with our new generation of
models we continue with this tradition.
Scandinavian design combines with
purposeful luxury to enrich your driving
experience. Intuitive technology makes
life less complicated and keeps you
connected with the world. The latest
powertrains balance responsive power
with class-leading efficiency. And our
enhanced safety innovations are always
there to support you, helping to prevent
accidents and protecting you if one
occurs. Making every journey safer,
more comfor table, and enjoyable.
We understand what’s important
to people. It forms the basis of all the
innovations we create. Innovations that
improve lives.
At Volvo Cars we design our cars
around you.

When we designed our new luxury sedan
we had a single aim: to create a car that
would redefine the meaning of luxury. The
result is the all-new Volvo S90, a car that
blends the best of Scandinavian design
with advanced technology to give you a
new experience, beyond the commonplace
and everyday. A new kind of luxury. Our
idea of luxury.
With a single glance the S90 captivates
you. Its powerful stance is confident and
assured, the embodiment of a design
philosophy that extends inside the car,
where you’ll discover a cabin crafted from
exceptional materials such as Swedish
crystal and flame birch.
In addition to styling, technology
suppor ts you without feeling overwhelming. From safety technology that avoids
collisions, every one of the advanced
features has been engineered to improve
every journey.
This is how a modern luxury sedan
should be. This is the all-new Volvo S90.

“Underneath the crisply sculpted exterior lies a new chassis
that delivers the best handling of any car we’ve made.”
THE LUXURY SEDAN, DESIGNED FOR A NEW WORLD.
From any angle the S90 looks elegant and
powerful. A solid, sculpted whole that is
always sophisticated. The muscular lines
are distinctly Volvo, anchoring the car to its
heritage while connecting it to the future.
The S90 is packed with innovative
technology that has one purpose: to simplify
your life, and one principle: it must be easy
to use. A large touch screen means we’ve
been able to reduce the number of buttons
to a minimum, and it’s laid out in portrait
format so reading and scrolling maps is
much easier. Run-off Road Mitigation,
which comes standard on every S90, is a
world-first innovation that steers you back
on track if the car starts to veer off the
road accidentally. This is our approach to
technology – it simply works for you.
Underneath the sculpted exterior lies
an all-new chassis that delivers the perfect
combination of precise handling and
welcome comfort. New double wishbone
front suspension and rear integral axle
suspension give you control over the car’s
movement. The optional premium air
suspension in rear with active chassis has
different settings to suit your mood, or the
road, and keeps the car at the right level,
regardless of load.
Elegance, craftsmanship, and technology.
This is what makes the S90 ready for the
new world.

Precision and accuracy at every touch.

From the moment you settle into the
driver’s seat you’re in control. Always within
reach of the 9-inch Sensus Touchscreen,
which is angled towards you to create the
feel of a cockpit. You’re surrounded by an
environment where beautiful materials and
advanced technology meet, creating a cabin
that looks stunning and works perfectly.
The exceptional craftsmanship enhances
the feeling of precision. Take the air vents,
inspired by our latest concept cars. The
metal-finish vertical strip and diamondpatterned control knob surfaces are
beautiful to look at while remaining intuitive
to the touch. In the S90 every component
moves with the accuracy afforded by fine
engineering. It is a car that gives you control
over every part of your journey.

“In the S90, technology and convenience go hand in hand.”
Experience a new way to travel.
Travel first class in every seat, every day.
Because when you’re in the S90 you’re in
your own private lounge, a place where
comfort and luxury combine with technology
and craftsmanship.
It starts with the front seats. Sculpted to
complement the human form, they provide
superb support and a wide range of adjustment, so everyone can find their ideal seating
position. The ergonomic design means that
you arrive feeling as fresh as you did when
you set off, however long the journey, while
optional ventilation functions provide even
greater comfort. The shape of the backrests
increase legroom for passengers in the rear,
and optional individually controlled heated
rear seats mean everyone benefits from the
same levels of comfort.
At night the cabin glows with the warmth
of its interior lighting, welcoming you into
the car. The optional high-level illumination
package includes backlit door handles and
illuminated tread plates, as well as additional
interior lighting to enhance the ambience.
CleanZone technology means the air you
breathe inside the car is cleaner than the air
outside. It filters dust, pollen, particles, and
odors while monitoring the air quality and
closing the intakes if pollutant levels rise
too high. It happens automatically – all you
need to do is set your desired temperature
and the S90 does the rest.
Optional four-zone climate control allows
rear seat passengers to choose their own
settings using a dedicated touch screen. It
also includes an air-conditioned glovebox
that keeps its contents cool, so warm days
don’t equate to warm drinks.
The optional power operated trunk lid
has a hands-free function so you don’t have
to put down what you’re carrying to open it.
In the S90, technology and convenience go
hand in hand.
In the driver’s seat you’re in charge.
Control functions such as navigation and
entertainment right from the steering wheel
buttons, while the 12-inch driver display
keeps you informed.
Every element of the cabin is crafted to
make form and function one. Even the door
handles can be backlit, making them easier
to find in the dark.
Beautiful, natural materials such as
Linear Walnut complement the car’s
advanced technology, creating a uniquely
contemporary look.

“Sensus connects you with
your Volvo and the rest of the world.”
Intuitive, intelligent technology to
always keep you connected.
Sensus has a guiding principle – to make
your life easier and more enjoyable, whether
it’s your comfort, entertainment, or navigation
requirements. Sensus connects you with
your Volvo and the rest of the world. It keeps
you informed, entertained, and in control of
every journey.
Intuitive, easy-to-use controls are a prime
feature of Sensus and you will find them
on the large, 9-inch Sensus Touchscreen
center display. Replacing physical buttons
with virtual equivalents on the screen
allows them to be larger and easier to use.
Bold, clear graphics make it easy to absorb
information at a glance. Our philosophy
has always been that you should be able
to operate your Volvo and keep your eyes
on the road. The optional head-up display
means you can do just that while staying
completely informed.
And Sensus goes further, with in-car
Wi-Fi keeping your devices connected to
the internet, while our audio systems offer
considerable flexibility when it comes to
choosing your desired music source and
tailoring its sound to suit your needs.
The Sensus experience enriches every
moment that you spend in your Volvo.
