The V90 Cross Country's turbocharged and supercharged four-cylinder engine-called T6 in Volvo-speak-is expected to carry over unchanged to 2021, even though European models will be offered with a 48-volt hybrid system. Like its sedan and wagon counterparts, the V90 Cross Country receives a light refresh for the 2021 model year, complete with tweaks to exterior styling, a new Bowers & Wilkins stereo system, and a cabin-air particulate-filtering system. Driver-assistance features abound, including standard automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection and a semi-autonomous driving mode. Inside, real wood trim, sculpted seats, and a large cargo area balance practicality with luxury to good effect. It also earns a spot on our Editors' Choice list. Like the smaller V60 Cross Country, the V90 Cross Country comes with more rugged styling cues to match its go-anywhere persona. Based on the normal V90 wagon, the V90 Cross Country adds a lifted suspension and standard all-wheel drive for improved capability in inclement weather. Volvo is a brand that's well known for its wagons, and the Swedish firm's latest long-roof models-including this 2021 V90 Cross Country-are moving this body style upmarket.
