'Mild hybrid' does little for fuel economy or performance, but this is still the V90 we like.
Here's what's going on: As part of its commitment to electrification—that is, some sort of electrical powertrain assistance in all of its cars—Volvo upgraded its old T5 and T6 powertrains with a 48-volt"mild hybrid" system. You'll forgive us if we're a bit cynical on this whole mild hybrid idea;decreaseBut we were rather intrigued by one engine alteration, made possible by the 48-volt system: The supercharger is now driven electrically.
Still, we wanted some hard numbers, so we brought the 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country B6 out to our test track. Under the hood is the same 2.0-liter found in Volvo's T5- and T6-equipped cars. Power output is 295 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque, a decrease of 21 hp and an increase of 15 lb-ft compared to the 2021 T6 engine. The eight-speed automatic transmission is a carryover.
