Large seven-seater SUVs are quite a specialised choice. They are made for people who wants to fit everybody into a single car and go out on a drive, but at the same time, for people who does not want to compromise on style and driving performance either.

Seven-seater SUVs exist because they are able to offer something more than large boxy people-hauling MPVs. And the XC90 is the prime example - with its latest facelift, it has claimed the top position among its peers in the styling department. A grille that pops out in terms of visuals, sleek and iconic Thor hammer daytime running lights and a sporty, raised appearance - a large SUV doesn't get any sharper than this.

Inside, the XC90 is spacious, offering ample head and legroom all around, including a boot space of 302 litres, which can be expanded to a humongous 1,194 litres. Of course, with a premium, luxury brand like Volvo, space isn't just all that it offers. You get quality material including wood, textile and leather, creating a warm and cozy cabin. Meanwhile, entertainment matters are handled by the 11.2-inch Android-based infotainment display.

The specially tuned suspension with Frequency Selective Damping allows the XC90 to offer an incredibly pliant and comfortable ride. But don't assume that the car is a pushover just because of its comfort and coziness - with 249bhp and 360Nm of torque to all four wheels, the XC90 is no slouch either.

A highly capable seven-seater SUV with no compromise on space and pace - the Volvo XC90 is an all-rounder that truly impresses.
