EURONCAP published new test data, also of the 2019 Audi Q7:

The XC90 is still better, even much better on standard safety assist features:

Did the test not change quite a bit in 2018 - to the degree that they say you can't compare tests from 2018 onwards to those conducted prior?

This is even better when you consider how long ago the XC90 was changed to its current guise and the Q7 is a brand new model

well as you know volvo are more often than not 10 years ahead of legislation :-) and the american car safety regulations were taken from the capabilities of the 240 back in 1973...

I didn't know this, but I've just watched a really good review of the V90. Apparently the new Spa platform is made using 40% hot formed boron steel, the strongest in the motor industry, and uses more than any other manufacturer.
