2022 Volvo XC90 Recharge in Santa Rosa: Family-Friendly Plug-in Hybrid with Pure-Electric Capability
Comfortable, stylish, and generously equipped, the 2022 Volvo XC90 Recharge is one of the most attractive luxury models in the midsize three-row SUV class. It offers a roomy first-class cabin, a wealth of premium amenities and tech features, and the striking sophistication of Volvo's signature craftsmanship. With its robust yet efficient plug-in hybrid powertrain, the XC90 Recharge delivers driving thrills in a more eco-friendly package. And for the 2022 model year, the XC90 Recharge gets a more powerful electric motor and a larger battery for even great performance and efficiency.
Performance, Range, Charging
The 2022 XC90 Recharge receives momentous motivation from a twincharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine paired with a rear-wheel electric motor and an 11.6-kWh battery. The result is an all-wheel-drive-turning 400 horsepower and 472 pound-feet of torque, capable of accelerating the three-row luxury SUV from zero to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds. The XC90 offers a pure-electric range of 18 miles.
For 2022, the XC90 Recharge offers a new 18.8-kWh Extended Range option making an exhilarating 455 horsepower and 523 pound-feet of torque (0-60: 5.0s) and enabling 35 miles of pure-electric range.
Does the Volvo XC90 Recharge charge with a Tesla charger? Tesla's charging infrastructure is proprietary. However, the XC90 Recharge's battery is easy to replenish, taking just ~6-9 hours with a 120V household-style wall outlet, and as little as three hours with standard Level 2 (240) equipment. Plus, all Volvo Recharge models come with access to the nation's leading public charging providers, ChargePoint and Electrify America.
Does the XC90 Recharge qualify for Tax Credit? The 2022 XC90 Recharge's 11.6-kWh battery qualifies for a federal tax credit of $5,419, plus a California Clean Fuel Reward of $566.70. New 18.8-kWh Extended Range models are eligible for the maximum tax credit of $7,500 and a $750.00 California Clean Fuel Reward.
Accommodations and Utility
As Volvo's flagship SUV, the XC90 Recharge perfectly exemplifies the automaker's signature Scandinavian design. The thoughtfully crafted cabin provides comfortable accommodations for seven passengers (six with second-row captain's chairs), with refined detailing, premium materials, and nicely cushioned and supportive seats. Numerous comfort and convenience amenities are included as standard equipment, including leather upholstery, heated front seats, four-zone automatic climate control, a panoramic moonroof with power sunshade, and a hands-free liftgate.
The XC90 Recharge retains 16 cubic feet for cargo behind the rear seats. And when you need more room for your Bay Area errands or adventures, you can fold the third row to access 42 cubic feet, or fold all rear seats for up to 86 cubic feet.
Technology and Safety
A vertically oriented 9-inch touchscreen enables easier menu navigation, better map viewing, and improved information absorption at a glance. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto provide seamless and intuitive smartphone integration. And the 12-inch digital gauge cluster allows you to customize the display to your viewing preferences.
With Volvo, your safety is never just an option. The XC90 Recharge comes standard with a complete roster of IntelliSafe advanced driver-assist technologies, including:
- Forward Collision Mitigation
- Pilot Assist driver assistance with adaptive cruise control and lane-tracing
- Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
