As a new Volvo dealer serving drivers throughout the greater Trevose area, our showroom is home to a comprehensive selection the latest luxury cars and SUVs that the Volvo brand has to offer. Now, Trevose, PA drivers may have a wealth of options to pick from, we'd like to make the case that the new 2022 Volvo XC90 is one of the most compelling among them. From its handsome styling sensibilities to its diverse range of interior features, this three-row premium SUV is at the very top of its class. However, while the new 2022 Volvo XC90 is plenty strong on its own merits, we think you'll find that it's much more appealing when you compare it to rivals like the new 2022 BMW X5 to see how the Volvo Brand distinguishes itself from the competition.
Powertrain
When it comes to engine options, the new 2022 Volvo XC90 offers three distinct powertrain options, while the new 2022 BMW X5 only has two distinct engine options. That being said, the standard engine on the BMW X5 does offer a bit more power than the standard T5 Powertrain on the 2022 Volvo XC90, which offers up to 250 horsepower. However, both should be plenty powerful for most day-to-day driving needs of folks in the greater Trevose, PA area. Now, you can upgrade to the 316-horsepower T6 powertrain or the 400-horsepower Recharge powertrain if you're looking for a bit more brawn, as the latter will outclass any conventional engine options that the 2022 BMW X5 has to offer. Now, you could always upgrade to the BMW X5 M50i to have access to up to 523 horsepower, but you'll pay considerably more than any comparable Volvo XC90 trim to do so.
Performance
On the performance front, the BMW X5 may be a bit more sporty in terms of its road feel, but its sacrifices overall comfort to achieve that end. By comparison, the new 2022 Volvo XC90 is plenty engaging to drive, but also delivers a much more comfortable and measured ride quality than its German rival. The result is a luxury SUV that's much more quiet and controlled on the highway and steady even on pothole-marked surface streets throughout the greater Trevose, PA area.
Interior
One key difference between the new Volvo XC90 and BMW X5 is seating capacity. The 2022 Volvo XC90 can seat up to seven passengers, while the new BMW X5 can only seat up to five passengers. This makes the new 2022 Volvo XC90 a better option for larger families.
Technology
When it comes to tech, the new Volvo XC90 and BMW X5 stand on roughly even footing. Both feature standard support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, making it easy to stay connected on the move. On top of that, onboard navigation is also standard for both models, so you'll never get lost when driving beyond the borders of Trevose, PA. However, the new 2022 Volvo XC90 offers adaptive LED headlights that swivel to illuminate your turns, a feature that you won't find standard on the 2022 BMW X5.
Safety
Both the new 2022 Volvo XC90 and BMW X5 come with a robust safety suites. However, while the new 2022 BMW X5 earned a Top Safety Pick rating from the IIHS, the 2022 Volvo XC90 claimed the more prestigious IIHS Top Safety Pick+ award.
