V90
The V90 is offered with various trim levels. In the United States the V90 was only available by special order, with dealers focusing on the V90 Cross Country.
In 2021, it was announced that the V90 would no longer be sold in the United States, with 2021 being the final model year.
In 2025, the V90 was discontinued globally as Volvo shifts its focus to electric vehicles and SUVs. The very last V90 was built in October 2025, marking the end of an era for Volvo's station wagons after over six decades of production.

Previewed before the 2016 Paris motor show, the V90 Cross Country is a raised height, AWD version of the V90 designed for use on rough terrain, unsealed roads and for light off-road usage.

A special version of the V90 Cross Country was announced on 30 October 2017 to celebrate the 2017–18 Volvo Ocean Race. The car has unique orange touches on the front and rear bumper, carbon fibre interior trim and orange stitching and seams and seat belts.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Volvo V90” as car model made by Volvo Cars. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as car model made by Volvo Cars. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 28, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q23306999. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2016, 2025, 2021 and 2017.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
