Pursuit Of Volvo: Safety In Style With The S90

Volvo returns. Safely, in style.

Meet the 2017 Volvo S90 sedan. Going head to head with the BMW 5 Series, Mercedes-Benz E-Class and the Audi A6, Volvo is entering the midsize luxury sedan category.

With the new S90, Volvo delivers the goods. The S90 takes many excellent things about Volvo’s XC90 SUV and condenses them down to sedan size. By focusing on design, safety and comfort, Volvo offers a luxurious driving experience.

Pursuitist traveled to New York to spend a week with the 2017 Volvo S90 sedan. Soaring high above the East River, we flew in a thrilling seaplane to The Hamptons. In this lush and affluent beach community, we took the S90 for a spin around Montauk.

From the city to the country, this sleek yet smart sedan loves to multi-task. Go to the museum, to the golf course, to the resort — and arrive in style.

Enjoy our photo and video road trip review with the 2017 Volvo S90 sedan. Join us as Pursuitist visits our favorite New York destinations before traveling to Montauk.
