Anybody know what the antenna is for inside the spoiler of the XC90?

Guessing the sharks fin on the roof is DAB and radio?

I think the sharks fin is for GPS. The radio antenna is in the left aft window. For DAB I don't know. Maybe also the shark?

Just curious on this topic - my antenna inside the rear roof spoiler got damaged but the radio signal was not impacted.

Anyone knowing what this antenna is for? And if it’s for radio is it DAB or FM/AM?

The aerial in the spoiler is for AM and (depending on your car model) FM1 reception. FM1, FM2 and DAB aerials are otherwise printed on the rear nearside window or rear screen, again depending on car model.

The shark's fin, actually called the MAM (Multiband Antenna Module) contains:

1. Phone 2G/3G/LTE/4G
2. TPMS/remote key
3. GPS/GLONASS
4. Sirius radio/ DAB1
5. External and internal WiFi

Different cars and model years can also have various configurations of the MAM and relocated components.
