You’ve seen the 2007 Volvo XC90, now have a look at the new XC90 Executive edition. It receives the same changes as the standard 2007 model, plus chrome finish on the door mirrors and C-pillars, and color-coordinated wheel arch extenders. At the rear, the Executive model has an oval tailpipe that encases both exhaust pipes. To further enhance its profile, the Volvo XC90 Executive can be fitted with 19-inch aluminium wheels. The interior has also been improved with upgraded upholstery, improved leather on the third row of seats, extra thick carpeting, an optional cooler, an advanced Rear Seat Entertainment system, an improved instrument panel, and walnut panel inlays.

It looks great in my opinion, especially the interior.

One of the nicest SUV’s on the market. Too bad gas prices are out of control. That factor alone will probably hurt any future success of the XC90.

Executives who want one of the safest luxury SUV’s money can buy… With sharp looks and a well appointed interior, the XC90 is a winner.

To each his own I guess.

Looks nice, although I’m more interested in getting details about the forthcoming Volvo XC50.

Yo steve! Where ya been for the last 10 years mate? In the mid 90’s I would have agreed with you – the epitome of invalid taste was a beige Volvo 960 wagon, but if you’d noticed the degree of change since then, which obviously you didn’t, you dolt, a Volvo now is a far nicer machine to be in than a Benz. (Whose quality control of late is Koreanesque sub-par.)

XC90 vs. ML? No contest twat – the ML gets an arse cramp if it just sees a corner.
XC90 vs. X5? Good question – BMW refined, corners nicely but soggy ‘n uncomfortable.
XC90 vs. Q7? Well now, Q7 is a bit $$$er and uglier but they perform equally well.

XC90 is basically the king of the so-called ’soft roaders,’ beaten only categorically by better offerings from Land/Range Rover and genuine estate cars.

Oh, and by the way, ‘Volvo’ is Swedish for: “Get out of my sodding way you peasant?”

Guttersludge: Steve wouldn’t know, never having aspirations of ever being an executive anything. :P

I agree – they say the Volvo range has some of the nicest feel about it…the best cars to be in they say.

Still, to each their own… Volvo done gooood.

tryed X5,xc90,ML 400cdi and the final conclussion was Volvo. I got scarried in ML, by the unsecurity feeling durring accelerations reprise ,felt like in an OLD NISSAN PATROOL on the highway. But the handelling feeling in VOLVO is perfection.confidence,power,smootness.
