Precio: 48.000 € (UK) Motor: 2.4-litros, 5cil, turbodiésel Potencia: 200cv a 4.000rpmPar (Nm): 420Nm a 2000-2750 Transmisión: 6-Vel, auto doble embrague. Tracción: 4x4 Velocidad Máxima: 205Km/h 0-100Km/h: 9.7 segundos Peso: 2050Kg A la venta: Ya Meet the SUV that opened up the Volvo brand to a new audience – and after nearly a decade on sale, the XC90 is still proving hugely popular. Does an uprated diesel engine continue to keep this latest model in contention? The off-roader’s looks have really stood the test of time, and its handsome proportions are as striking as ever. Even this top-spec R-Design seven-seater avoids the showiness of most of its rivals, with only the quad exhausts and 19-inch alloys adding a touch of style to the chunky exterior. Just one engine is on offer – a 2.4-litre D5 five-cylinder diesel, mated to a six-speed auto box. The drivetrain suits the XC90 perfectly, and now comes with an extra 15bhp and 20Nm of torque. It’s also slightly cleaner and more economical than before (returning 34mpg combined), although it can’t match the six-cylinder oil-burners from Audi and BMW. The Volvo is a refined motorway cruiser, but it emits quite a racy growl when accelerating. Don’t be fooled, though – the XC90 is far from being a sports car. While the lofty driving position gives a commanding view of the road, you can really feel the two-tonne bulk shifting around through corners. This body roll comes despite the R-Design’s special suspension set-up – however, the softness makes for a cosseting ride, as do the plush and supportive leather seats. Unfortunately, the rest of the cabin is starting to show its age. The centre console houses a dizzying array of buttons, and the remote-controlled sat-nav is infuriating at best – it’s very tricky to operate on the move. Build quality is still superb, but the XC90 is utilitarian rather than luxurious. While the sturdy plastics will please family buyers, they’re a little disappointing on a car that costs £40,000-plus. Land Rover’s similarly priced Discovery is a step up by comparison. As a family workhorse, though, the big Volvo has few peers. The split-folding tailgate makes for easy loading, and there’s a cavernous 1,837 litres of space on offer with the back seats folded flat – even if rearranging them is rather hard work. Legroom is ample, but the hard-to-access rearmost seats are strictly for kids, as adults will find head and legroom at a premium. Yet while the XC90 is feeling a little tired now, it’s still a decent all-rounder. |

Ya pero los Diesel D5 no la llevan porque no soportan el par motor, sino fijate con los S60 D5 o V60 D5 por ejemplo. Saludos! |

Cuando salio el powershift,decian que sporta 450 newton de par,no se o mintieron o hay alguna politica comercial detras,de la no comercializacion en los diesel. Por otra parte el XC90 es un modelo veterano,pero para mi aguanta muy bien el tipo,a mi me sigue gustando,habida cuenta de los retoques que le van dando. Se habla que para 2012/2013 vendra el sustituto,decian que hibrido,tambien se ha comentado que desaparece,nose a Volvo es dificil pillarle el paso. |

No esta nada mal dicho coche, eso si done este un convertidor de par para el campo que se quiten los powershift (en campo los embragues del powershift te duran un suspiro). Saludos. |

Powershift en el D5??? Y cómo agunta el par??? Juararía que ese coche sólo está disponible con el Geartronic de convertidor de par... Por cierto, el XC90 necesita un relevo YA!!! |

No existe el XC60 T5... ![]() De hecho, ningún XC60 actualmente en venta (D3, D5 y T6) pude montar el Powershift. Todos llevan el Geartronic. |

http://www.autocar.co.uk/CarReviews/...Pshift/255196/ Pero vaya, parece que Autocar, como siempre, ha sido el primero en meterle mano. Rectifico: no aparece en las especificaciones técnicas del XC60, pero sí en el configurador y asociado, única y exclusivamente, al cambio Powershift de doble embrague. |
