Now that the wraps have come off the 2015 Volvo XC90, the Swedish automaker has announced a limited series run to front-line the second-generation seven-seater SUV’s arrival on the scene. The First Edition, as it’s called, will be made up of 1,927 individually-numbered vehicles, the specific number being a celebratory nod to the year the company was founded.
What’s unique about the series isn’t in how many vehicles there are, but rather the fact that the entire First Edition run will only be available for sale via digital commerce through www.volvocars.com. The online store will begin selling the first XC90s on September 3.
The First Edition XC90s, which will feature uniquely numbered tread plates and a distinctive badge on the tailgate, will be available in supercharged and turbocharged T6 AWD (320 hp and and 400 Nm) and D5 twin turbodiesel (225 hp and 470 Nm) forms. Both engines will be paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
The edition will feature black an Onyx Black exterior and eight-spoke, 21-inch inscription wheels, as well as an interior featuring nappa leather seats done in a shade called Amber, complete with a Charcoal leather dashboard and Linear Walnut inlays. Also on, a 19-speaker, 1,400 watt Bowers & Wilkins audio system.

Was Volvo born 1927 ?
Another Xiaomi style marketing spotted…but its works
Wow… So fast come out with special edition. No confidence with it?
Merc also did the same thing with the A45 AMG. Think of it as a launch model with a lot of the options ticked. Btw, i would say the new XC90 looks very imposing indeed.
Haha, that is your own interpretation on “special edition” but not for others.
all the fuss and you don’t get that crystal gearknob…i will wait…
Yeah, same thoughts here. The crystal one is only on the T8 TwinEngine model though.
Can our Malaysian also buy one of these?
Volvo Malaysia, Malaysians can order or not?
Why only online? Real buyers always prefer touch and feel.
An online exclusive? Is that a first?
Volvo Cars is Swedish? I tot the owner is Chinese now?
Sounds like a Xiaomi strategy to drum up excitement. Perhaps their Chinese parentage…
…..and a 12 year old girl got this car for free… she so lucky with that hole in one shot !
How come she won this car. This car not even sold in the public yet. Read the news again.
Th 12-year old girl got an XC60, not XC90.
No wonder I always like autobots better.
Those XC90 fans will no doubt order online. “XC90” by its name is convincing enough for people to place order.
pity the car sales people…no commision!
Are you sure you want to be a statistic for asbestosis & mesothelioma?
I think better dont order online, because you wouldn’t know how much levy you are going to pay when it imports into Malaysia! quite risky!
