Shop Volvo XC90 SUVs

The Volvo XC90 seats were designed by experts to support your body, even during long drives. Seat design is an important and often under-appreciated aspect of vehicle design. Your car can be equipped with all sorts of luxuries – leather upholstery, heated seats, top-tier audio system, powered seating – but if the actual place you sit is not well-designed, the vehicle will still be uncomfortable.

Drivers in Lexington, KY, will find that the Volvo XC90 seats are comfortable in part because they were designed by orthopedic surgeons. Volvo Cars has worked with the Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden since the 1960s to develop seats that don't take an unnecessary toll on your back and body. Read on to learn more about how the Volvo XC90 combines comfort with style and luxury.

Volvo Orthopedic Seats

As we noted above, Volvo Cars has been working with credentialed experts for decades to design the seats in their vehicles. The seats in your new Volvo XC90 are built to support your spine and the associated muscles so that they are not excessively strained by sitting. The seats reduce pressure on important body parts and lessen hunching behaviors that hurt your shoulders and pull at your back.

The driver's seat of your Volvo XC90 is powered and has memory settings, allowing you and your spouse to share the vehicle easily. The passenger seat is also power-adjustable, so your riders can easily find a comfortable spot. The headrests in the second row are also powered – you can fold them down with the touch of a button to improve your visibility when driving without second-row passengers.

By having seats in its vehicles designed by orthopedic surgeons, Volvo Cars has gone above and beyond. The company has not limited this impressive dedication to the comfort of its drivers to the seats. Every new Volvo XC90 for sale in Lexington, KY, comes standard with an impressive array of standard safety technologies, including:

• Blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alerts
• Automated front braking
• Lane-keeping assistance
• Oncoming lane mitigation

Volvo XC90 Seating Capacity

Motorists in Lexington, KY, can actually choose how many Volvo XC90 seats will be in their vehicle. The car comes standard with two in the front, a three-row bench in the second row, and a pair of seats in the third row. You can elect to replace the bench with Volvo XC90 captain's chairs. While this reduces the Volvo XC90 seating capacity from seven to six, these chairs are more spacious and offer easier access to the third row.

No matter the configuration you select, the cabin of your new Volvo XC90 will be roomy and luxurious. The base model boasts leatherette upholstery, heated front seats, mid-level interior illumination, and a ten-speaker audio system that offers crisp and sonorous sound.
