If you're looking for a midsize SUV that's roomy, luxurious, and fuel-efficient, the 2022 Volvo XC90 is right up your alley. Its sophisticated Scandinavian elegance and powerful hybrid powertrain option give it a leg up on most midsize crossovers. The 2022 Hyundai Palisade is also a spacious midsize SUV, but it's not as refined as the XC90. Read the following comparison from Faulkner Volvo Cars Trevose to learn why.
