Volvo V90 Cross Country leaked

XC70 replacement pops up on US car blog, thought to come from official V90 sales material

A scanned picture claimed to come from an unreleased Volvo V90 sales brochure has leaked the forthcoming all-wheel drive V90 Cross Country.

Featuring a raised ride height and tough protective plastic cladding on the wheel-arches, door sills and front and rear bumpers, the all-wheel drive V90 also comes with prominent metal front and rear bash plates, plus new alloy wheels.

Inside, according to the images, the Cross Country version shares the regular Volvo wagon's luxurious interior.

It's not known which V90 engines are set to power the SUV-rivalling wagon, but the safe money is it will come with the option of the higher-output diesel and petrol variants.

That means the Swedish Subaru Outback-rival will be offered with either the turbocharged 2.0-litre 235kW/400Nm petrol T6 engine or the 2.0-litre turbo-diesel 173kW/480Nm D5 and, potentially, the 300kW/640Nm T8 hybrid that technically is already all-wheel drive as it has a rear electric motor that drives the rear axle.

All models are expected to come with all-wheel drive.

It's not known when Volvo plans to reveal the V90 Cross Country but it is expected to star at the Paris motor show late September before it goes on sale early 2017.
