That’s a far cry from the 15.3-centimetre ground clearance in the standard V90. The first good point? It’s the V90 Cross Country that’s returning, which comes with a 20.4-centimetre ground clearance, better than what you’ll find in some SUVs. It’s only being sold in one configuration, but just about everything about it is nail-on-the-head perfect for Canada.
Volvo quietly discontinued the V90 in Canada for 2020, and a whole lot of people never noticed. She didn’t know what she was missing, and neither did just about everyone else. “Oh, my friend, do I ever have the car for you!” I declared. She was looking to replace her aging sedan around that time and had a checklist of desired traits in a new vehicle: classy but not pretentious, good in the snow, and something she could get her less-than-agile dog into with a minimum of heavy lifting. My real estate agent friend is a perfect example.
There was just one problem: very few people could be convinced to buy one. From the day it was announced for the 2017 model year, it captured my imagination and stole my heart every time I saw it in my driveway. The Volvo V90 wagon is an attention-getter and a stunner.
