After numerous leaks and prototype sightings, Volvo’s V90 wagon has finally been revealed to the public.

The car was presented last month at a private showing in Stockholm, Sweden and this week it was presented at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. 

The V90 will compete with other premium mid-size wagons such as the Audi A6 Avant, BMW 5-Series Touring and Mercedes-Benz E-Class Wagon. However, the V90 is unique in that it comes exclusively with four-cylinder power. Final specs are yet to be announced but we’d expect them to be the same as the figures previously announced for the S90, Motorauthority.com reports.

For the United States, that should mean three options at launch: a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder in a T5; a supercharged and turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder in a T6; and a supercharged and turbocharged 2.0-liter four working with an electric motor in a range-topping T8 Twin Engine. Outputs should range from 240 to 410 horsepower.
 

In the era of SUVs and crossovers - not to mention a Geneva Motor Show that looks like the parking lot of a Monaco casino - the 2016 Volvo V90 should not stand out like it does.

 

The V90 is absolutely gorgeous and wonderfully detailed, inside and out.

Yes, we did just use the term "sex appeal" when describing a Volvo wagon. But it's a Volvo, so rest assured that all this visual allure is wrapped in the latest safety tech.
