Test drive Volvo V90 CC If I had money, I would have to buy it!

When I was in college, I didn't know where I accepted the argument: "A station wagon is good!" People who really know cars don't buy sedans and SUVs, they buy station wagons! ”

So, I fell into a station wagon craze.

It doesn't matter what kind of sedan he is, what kind of SUV he is, as long as it doesn't have the elegant figure and proud curves of a station wagon, it's not a good car!

When I was in college, I secretly set a goal for myself to buy a station wagon in the future!

But when I was almost three years old, I still drove an SUV every day; When you come across an Audi or Volvo station wagon, you can only whisper your admiration through the window glass ......

We don't have the money to buy it, but we can borrow it, right?

Not long ago, a "distant friend" drove a Volvo V90 CC and came back. The elegant and charming figure and the ** tail can be called a stunner in the car. Don't say much else, let's just plate it!

V90 cc, which is pretty enough

In fact, strictly speaking, the Volvo V90 CC is a crossover model, that is, a crossover wagon. If you look for a car in its class, it's roughly the equivalent of the Audi A6 Allroad.

Compared to the V90, the V90 cc has a raised chassis, and I visually measured that this guy has a ground clearance of 200mm, which is about the same height as my SUV chassis. At the same time, although it has an elegant and slender body, it is surrounded by black plastic under the body, which really makes people feel a little "outrageous".

However, Volvo can fortunately provide an optional scheme with plastic scuff strips in the same color as the body, if it is an all-white V90 CC, the overall Nordic style will not be "scratched and come up"?

It should also be mentioned that in China, the Volvo 90 series station wagon is only available for the V90 CC, and the V90 is not introduced. Of course, if you are particularly concerned about the posture, it is still good to keep the original design of the station wagon.

In my opinion, if I have a V90 cc, I need to take care of how it looks.

First of all, it is necessary to be white all over, because the ice and snow of Nordic cars must be set off by white.

Secondly, I wouldn't keep the original Volvo 20-inch wheels. This set of wheels, which looks "not wild at all", does not match the identity of the crossover at all. I'd choose a small set of white oz rally wheels and pair them with Kelluche AT tires. In addition, two yellow Hella fog lamps had to be added to the grille, and a set of luggage racks and spotlight ...... had to be installed on the roof

If you take this attitude to the Volvo V90 CC as you imagined, you don't have to think about it, it will be even more beautiful.

In terms of driving, the V90 CC is like a combination of a sedan and an SUV

After driving a Volvo V90 CC, I am responsible to tell you that this is the softest Volvo on the chassis (excluding the truck).

In terms of chassis texture, it doesn't have the stiff and bumpy feeling of the S90 sedan and other Volvo models. When the manhole cover is crushed, the vibration is very small and ......Let's put it this way, when I drive another Volvo over a speed bump, my sphincter muscles involuntarily contract; But when driving the V90 cc over all the uneven surfaces, I felt more relaxation and comfort.

Of course, this relatively soft chassis is not a good thing for avid driving enthusiasts.

If you drive this car to split corners, the body will roll sharply, which will make you involuntarily reduce your speed; If you're still obsessed with high-speed splitting, the co-pilot's vomit will be naked at you.

So in my opinion, a Volvo V90 cc with a high chassis and rear air suspension is more suitable for long-distance driving.

It can keep you comfortable and stable in thousands of kilometers of long distances, especially its slightly stiff seats, although not luxurious, but just like magic, even driving for hours, will not make people feel tired.

In addition, the current power system of Volvo V90 CC is actually worth talking about.

The only car available at the moment is the B5 power version. Drive-E Series 2The 0T engine produces 250 PS horsepower and 350 Nm of torque, and is paired with an Aisin 8AT gearbox to achieve a 0-100 acceleration time of 74 seconds.

And in my actual driving, the city and suburbs account for half of each other, and its comprehensive fuel consumption is in the range of 10-11L 100km, which is not fuel efficient but not fuel-efficient.

This motivation, in fact, is not much to say. It can meet the needs of urban commuting, and the overall power quality is relatively smooth; At the same time, it can also meet my needs for going to the mountains and going to the countryside, even on the western Sichuan Plateau, I can also "run". But if you want to drive this guy off the track, I'm sorry, there are no doors. When I drove this car, I found that it was the same as other Volvos, there were no paddle shifters and no S gear.

In addition, all Volvo V90 cc models are equipped with a four-wheel drive system from Halftech as standard. This all-wheel drive system performs well, and can cope with simple off-road sections, and there is no panic in snow and mud. In fact, for a station wagon, it can have such power, plus a good four-wheel drive system, in fact, it is enough, it can at least meet my needs for long-distance travel and self-driving travel.

Looking at the practicality through the space, the station wagon is really good

In fact, compared to the Volvo S90 sedan, the V90 CC has a shorter body length and a shorter wheelbase.

For example, the length and wheelbase of the S90 reach 5090mm and 3061mm respectively, while the length and wheelbase of the V90 CC are "only" 4959mm and 2941mm.

However, if I had to choose, I would definitely choose the V90 CC over the S90 sedan.

For one, although the rear space of the V90 CC is slightly smaller than that of the S90, especially the legroom is not particularly abundant. But if you travel with four people, it is completely stress-free; After all, this is a car with strong personal attributes, not an executive-class sedan for business receptions.

Second, the V90 CC's trunk space is really practical. Even in normal conditions, its loading capacity is not weaker than that of an SUV like the XC60. And after folding the rear seats, this guy's stomach is simply a "double bed". Drive a V90 cc out and lie in the car and watch the stars, isn't it romantic?

Third, the seats of the V90 CC, as always, maintain Volvo's "not luxurious, but decompressive" characteristics. I drove for four or five hours in one go, and if I got out of the other cars, I had to hold my waist by my hand; But when I got out of the Volvo, I was so refreshed that I even felt like I could drive for another three hours.

As for the interior design, the Volvo V90 CC is relatively bland.

Its interior design belongs to the category of simple and refreshing, which does not look very luxurious, but it will not be disgusted to get along for a long time. Especially for high-end models, as well as Bowers & Wilkin's audio system, it is still very good to sit in the car and listen to small songs.

Conclusion:

The reason why the Volvo V90 CC is my "dream car" is not because of how attractive the Volvo brand is, nor because of how luxurious the car is. The fundamental reason for this is that the V90 CC can satisfy my imagination of a free life, and it can also bring strong practicality. Also, when you're driving this car, it's not so ostentatious, but it tells people that you're a tasteful person who doesn't conform to the crowd.

So, if I had the financial means, I would not hesitate to buy a V90 cc. I just hope that this car can hold up for a few more years and wait for me; After all, the most painful thing in life is that I finally have the money to buy a dream car, only to find that the car I like has long been ......discontinued
