    LEAKED! Volvo V90 Is Unmasked

      And now, the replacement for the Volvo V70

    Ever since pictures of a Volvo V90 wagon diecast model made their way onto the web last fall, everyone has been waiting to see the full size version of it. Swedish magazine Teknikens Värld got their hands on some leaked photos of a pre-production model and it looks exactly like the model.

     

    From the pictures, the V90 gets a unique rear tailgate that blends the rear end styling of the S90 sedan with a slight angle for the rear glass. Teknikens Värld says the V90 will about 5.9 inches longer than the S90 - a sedan that has an overall length of 195.4 inches.

     

    What is unknown at the moment is if the U.S. will get it. If it does come, expect it to share the same powertrains as the S90, including the T8 plug-in hybrid.

     

    Volvo will debut the V90 at the Geneva Motor Show in March.

    Reminds me of the Infiniti crossovers with the slopped back and useless inside cargo room. Just like the SRX which also has pathetic interior cargo room. Those slanted glass might look cool to some but kill the interior room for cargo carrying capacity. Station wagons did fine on MPG let them have their box size so you can still carry actual stuff in them.

    • Not Overthinking is a good thing this year with all the craziness going on. Washington just raised their gas tax 6 cents per gallon, so 55 cents for WA tax and 18.4 for Fed tax, so a 73.4 cents in fuel tax on top of the gas price. On average 40 to 45 cents per gallon cheaper at Costco/Sams Club here. Worth waiting in line unless I have a dollar discount at Fred Meyers which I get about once a month. Makes it worth fueling up at their slow pumps to save $32 on a tank full. Like you Drew, not renewing Sams Club, just not seeing the value in comparison to Costco here. Sadly Dell has done a RTO for full campuses, Hybrid for all others. As such, I now have to go into work 3 days a week. Lucky our Light Rail just opened up, so rather than 1 to 1 1/2 hrs in my own auto to drive into Seattle. I can drive 5 min to the Lynnwood rail station, jump on the train and be 4 blocks from the office 35 min later. Seattle requires all businesses to provide mass transit passes, good on the busses, trains or ferry system. Looking at fueling up every 4 to 5 weeks now for my Escalade.
    • I have a Costco on one side of me in a shopping center I'm always in and a Sam's on the other side of me in another area I'm always in. I have both memberships, though the Sam's is not getting renewed when it's up.  Both are within 7 minutes of the house. I have my favorite stations marked in GasBuddy and the cheapest prices in the county are those two plus a Speedway that sometimes gives me bonus discounts that is near one of my clients. I probably put way too much effort into figuring out which is the cheapest because I compare the E85 price to the others but have to factor the drop in MPG and the cashback rebates my Costco credit card gives me. There is a spreadsheet on my phone. I'm making a concerted effort to not overthink things this year.
    • It's cheaper here, too, but not THAT significant. It's more like 8c-15c. I also have to be around one. My town of 10k people does not have a Sam's Club or Costco, hahaha.  I will almost always fill up when I'm near a Sam's Club, but I'm not waiting in line for 15 minutes. 
    • Site search here does suck and there's not a lot I can do about it.   Using "site:cheersandgears.com {search terms}" in google might help. At least for me, there is a 35c - 45c difference to fuel at not-Costco/Sams.  Filling a 27 gallon tank makes it worth the wait to fill at a warehouse club.  Once in a while I get Speedway deals and can fill up with E85 for super cheap.
    • I've done it and showed @G. David Felt in the past (posted here). I've tried finding the video but have had no luck. If you have super hero powers as an admin/site owner, please find it! I'll try and remember to do it again the next time I get gas.  There are places to wait in lines around here but those are the exception to the rule, not the rule. From my house, I could drive the two blocks away, fill up, and get back home in under 10 minutes. There are never lines in town and it takes no time to start pumping using a credit card.  Or I could find a Sam's Club and wait 5-15 minutes in line before pumping gas, but they're the only places you're waiting in line and it isn't every time. I've certainly gotten gas at a Sam's Club and not waited in line.  Yes, a heat pump would be necessary here for battery efficiency for at least a third of the year.
