Overview
The Volvo XC90 is a seven-seat executive SUV for buyers needing three-row space in an all-wheel-drive package. The 2025 second-facelift range starts at RM418,888 and pairs a 1,969 cc petrol-hybrid powertrain with an automatic gearbox. It suits families who want an SUV rather than a conventional seven-seat people carrier.
XC90 in 2026 — what's new
The 2026 XC90 is the 2025 facelift with Aurora Silver added to the colour range. Malaysia continues with two Ultra variants: the B5 mild-hybrid petrol and T8 plug-in hybrid petrol. Both retain all-wheel drive, an automatic transmission and seven seats. Beyond the new colour, the current range carries on with the same B5 and T8 line-up.

Which variant to buy
For most buyers, choose the RM418,888 Ultra B5. It has AWD, an automatic and seven seats, while its mild-hybrid petrol system produces 263 hp. Pay RM16,000 more for the RM434,888 Ultra T8 if the plug-in hybrid system and its 462 hp matter to you. Both are Ultra-spec AWD seven-seaters with the same 1,969 cc capacity; the stated step up is in hybrid type and output.

Volvo XC90 buyer's guides & reviews
Verdict
The XC90 makes sense for buyers who want a seven-seat SUV in place of a traditional seven-seat MPV. It does not enter this class cheaply: the B5 costs more than the Mazda CX-80 and Volkswagen Touareg, while the T8 is priced above the BMW iX. The range does, however, give a clear choice between a 263 hp mild hybrid and a 462 hp plug-in hybrid.
