Chandigarh 08^th December:- The S90 marks a giant step forward for Volvo Cars. The Swedish car maker is better known for its SUVs and estates, but with the launch of the S90 Volvo is clearly intent on shaking up the premium sedan segment with its distinctive executive class sedan. Equipped with a host of new technologies ranging from cutting edge safety to cloud-based apps and services, the S90 is further proof of the Swedish brand's continuing transformation.

Hakan Samuelsson, President & CEO, Volvo Car Group said that with the launch of the XC90 we made a clear statement of intent. We are now clearly and firmly in the game. With $11 USD billion of investment over the past five years we have not only remained what Volvo Cars can be,we are now delivering on our promise of a resurgent and relevant Volvo Cars brand.  He added that the new Volvo S90 comes equipped with an advanced semi-autonomous drive feature, Pilot Assist. The system gives gentle steering inputs to keep the car properly aligned within lane markings up to motorway speeds of around 130 km/h and no longer needs to follow another car. Pilot Assist is another step towards full autonomous drive a key innovation area for Volvo.  The S90 will also come with a clean and powerful T8 Twin Engine plug-in hybrid power train and one of the most luxuriously appointed interiors and connected infotainment systems in the large sedan segment.

Tom von Bonsdorff, Managing Director, Volvo Auto India said that we in India are very excited with the global unveiling of the S90.  After the success of the XC90, we are confident that the All-New S90 will capture the imagination of the discerning luxury sedan customer in India. S90 flagship luxury sedan features the brand's new design language with Thor's Hammer LED light signature. In India, we will unveil the car and price in the 4th quarter of 2016 and the deliveries are planned thereafter.

Thomas Ingenlath, Senior Vice President Design at Volvo Car Group said that our idea was to bring something entirely new to this rather conservative segment and deliver a visual expression that exudes leadership and confidence on the exterior. On the inside we have taken the S90 to the next level, delivering a high-end luxury experience that promises comfort and control.
