People have been talking about the upcoming Volvo flagship sedan (the current S80 successor) for a while. Rumor has indicated the new flagship will be named “S90”, and Volvo built the Concept Universe and Concept You back in 2011 to give us a hint of how the new sedan will look like. Below is a spy shot shows the C-pillar section of an real S90 prototype (note: this photo was taken on Aug.28, 2013).
The S90 will be based on Volvo’s latest SPA platform (Scalable Product Architecture), you can see our brief analysis of the SPA design here. Powertrain will be similar to the XC90, including a top T8 trim which is composed of a 2.0L supercharged + turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, and one electric motor. This setup has a combined output of 400hp and 472 lb-ft of torque on the 2015 XC90, we expect similar numbers on the S90 T8 too.
Now I will leave you with this latest rendering of the Volvo S90, please enjoy.
