Cabin-wide comfort
Build your XC90 with six or seven full-sized seats. All seats provide ergonomic support. Front seats and outboard second row seats are heated as standard. With cinema-style seating and plenty of legroom, even the third row feels spacious for people up to 5 ft 7 in tall.
Adjust the cabin layout by folding down rear seat backrests individually or in rows. They fold flush with the floor, adding flexibility to the cabin and extra space for cargo.
Practical storage
There's storage for your things under the upholstered armrest of the center console. There's also a little storage space under the roll-top cover, plus cupholders for two beverages and a slim can.
Everyone has a cupholder within easy reach. In the 7-seat configurations, second-row passengers have cupholders in the fold-down armrest. In the 6-seater, cupholders are integrated into the armrest of the second-row seats. There are also cupholders in all third-row armrests.
The third-row armrests and rear side panels have a hidden compartment for stashing small items. Passengers in the first two rows have spacious door bins, too. They're big enough to hold a 1.5-liter bottle.
Panoramic roof
The panoramic roof in the XC90 stretches from the windshield to behind the rear seats, flooding the cabin with natural light. The dark-tinted laminated glass helps reduce glare and noise inside the cabin. It also strengthens the glass for added security.
Press a button on the front-row ceiling console to open the roof and let fresh air flow inside. If you forget to close it after parking, do it remotely with your key fob.
When the sun gets too intense, roll out the power-operated sunshade. It's a perforated textile that lets in light to keep the cabin bright but not overheated. You can set it to automatically deploy when temperatures reach 77-degrees F.

Premium interior illumination comes standard in the XC90.
Unlock the car, and the cabin comes to life. General, footwell and mood lights welcome you on board. Open any door to spark ambient lighting on the dashboard and door panels. As you step in, look for embedded graphics and a gleaming Volvo Cars logotype on the instep plates.
