XC90 Excellence

OK so I came across this - a 4 seat XC90 sold by Volvo USA - does anyone in the UK have one of these? It seems unbelievably luxurious!

Umm, not sure if my Champagne glasses are the right size or not?

No. I put my Dom Perignon in a beer glass.

What an annoying host.

Liking the car though Did I hear it was an XC90 Excellence at some point or 100

I totally agree he is very grating!

I found the official Volvo USA page for this vehicle too

Interesting bit of kit, crazy spec....

Not sure the underlying bits would bring it all to be worth 100k USD though? But hen I suppose you’d be looking at about 76k GBP, which doesn’t sound all that bad...?

Wonder what the equiv Cayenne or something would be...

You can spec it as a 3 seater too I think - very strange.

AndyJudge · Jan 17th, 2019, 21:36

Thinking on it the price isn't as much as a fully specced XC90 T8 with all the Bells, Whistles & Bling added. - I got to £81,000 & didn't select everything

Certainly not a great deal more than my dream XC60 comes in at in the scheme of things.

The video must be about four years old. This model is, or was, if I remember correctly, built and aimed at the Chinese and Asian markets primarily. Today I would guess that it would sell for about the same money as a well specified Range Rover. Possibly an ‘Autobiography ‘ model. Not too uncompetitive compared to the RRover and certainly a good bit cheaper than a Bentayga. But then, it just isn’t a Bentayga or a Range Rover.

There are zero Volvo’s of this spec around here but there are a good few Range Rovers and one or two Bentayga also. At £100k approx it would not sell i’m afraid.

It's still available in The Netherlands starting from € 130,870
