A Tough Wagon from Volvo
Trucks have been known to be Volvo’s toughest vehicle - after all they are the world’s second largest manufacturer of bus, coach and trucks. But with the release of the Volvo XC90, trucks are not only vehicles coming from Volvo which exhibits toughness.
The Volvo XC90 is a station wagon released by the company to compete in the still growing station wagon market in the US. The car’s toughness though is belied by its stylish exterior design and its luxurious interior. But true to the tradition of Volvo, the station wagon is equipped with a high performance powerplant under its hood and a wide array of high performance components for every system.

While it cannot be considered small, its size is dwarfed by its competition in its class. But what the Volvo XC90 may have lost in size, it makes up with power and toughness even on off-road conditions. The car’s off-road capability is even better than some pickup trucks in the market.

The Volvo XC90 brings to the table a perfect combination of power and toughness, luxurious interior design, stylish exterior and an array of safety features. The toughness of the car rivals that of Mercedes-Benz, and that is saying a lot since Mercedes-Benz produced vehicles are one of the toughest road vehicles out there. The construction of the body and the frame to make it more stable and exhibit more toughness also increase the safety of the occupants. The steering and suspension system of the car also works to perfection to power the car through some of the toughest off-road conditions. The Volvo XC90 does this with the help of its all-wheel drive configuration.
