Prices range from $87,889 before on-road costs for the B5 Momentum to $117,888 before on-roads for the Recharge.

Engines

Power in the XC90 B5 comes from a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine with 48V mild-hybrid assistance. It makes 183kW of power and 350Nm of torque.

The 100km/h sprint takes a claimed 6.8 seconds, and the car uses an eight-speed automatic.

Moving to the B6 adds a supercharger to the mix, which ups the power to 220kW and torque to 420Nm. The 100km/h sprint time is a claimed 6.7 seconds, and the transmission is the same eight-speed automatic.

The Recharge has a plug-in hybrid powertrain that pairs a turbo- and supercharged four-cylinder petrol engine with an electric motor to make a combined 300kW of power and 640Nm of torque.

Claimed pure-electric range is 44km, and the 100km/h sprint time is 5.6 seconds. The car has an eight-speed automatic transmission.
