Compare the Volvo XC90 Against Competitors

The Volvo XC90 Takes on the Competition

Growing up and starting a family doesn't have to mean sacrificing your love of luxurious, quality vehicles. You can have the best of both worlds, with a roomy, three-row vehicle that can hold the whole family and is designed with Volvo flair and attention to detail. At Scott Volvo Cars Allentown, we think that our Volvo XC90 is the best answer for our customers who want a high-end vehicle that's also safe and roomy enough to accommodate an entire family.

Which SUV is Right For You?

The Volvo XC90 is much more than your typical luxury SUV. It's also a chameleon with multiple seating, engine, and trim level configurations. You can customize yours at our Allentown, PA dealership, and get the world-class SUV you were meant to drive.

While the XC90 is a great three-row model for Bethlehem, PA area families, it's not the only one out there for our customers to consider. Here, we've pit our model against two competing SUVs, to help you understand everything that sets it apart.

The Volvo XC90 vs. the Acura MDX

• Options. The XC90 is a highly-customizable model, with three engines, three seating configurations, and multiple trims. The Acura MDX, however, doesn't allow drivers to personalize their vehicle. It does have several packages you can use to pick and choose your vehicle, but there's only one standard engine and one standard seating arrangement.
• Power. Not only does the Volvo offer more engines to choose from, its engines are also generally more powerful than the Acura. The XC90 can range from 250 horsepower, to 316 horsepower, to 400 horsepower, while the MDX offers a standard 290 horsepower.
• Mileage range. The Volvo travels around 395 miles in the city and 545 miles on the highway per fill up, while the Acura averages around 390 miles in the city and 527 miles on the highway per tank of gas.

The Volvo XC90 vs. the Honda Pilot

• Personalization. The Honda pilot is strictly a three-row model with one powertrain. But the Volvo XC90 understands everyone has different needs and likes, and as a result it offers drivers the option to choose from three different seating configurations and multiple engines. These options include a powerful and efficient hybrid powertrain, which is something that's not available at all in the Honda Pilot lineup.
• Safety features. Volvo models are renowned for their innovative safety technologies, and the XC90 is a testament to that reputation. Each one has along list of standard safety features, including oncoming traffic mitigation. The Honda Pilot also offers some nice standard safety features, but it doesn't come close to the same number that the Volvo XC90 has.
 
• Efficiency and range. While the Volvo XC90 earns around 24 mpg combined, the Honda gets 22 mpg. Additionally, the XC90 can travel 395 miles in the city and 545 miles on the highway per tank of gas, while the Honda goes just 371 miles in the city and 527 miles on the highway per fill up.
