Visually, the R-Design package adds a trim-specific radiator grille with horizontal slats, a discreet lip spoiler on the front bumper, flat silver mirror caps, a roof-mounted spoiler and trapezoidal exhaust pipes integrated into a deep rear bumper. 20-inch five-spoke alloy wheels wrapped by Pirelli Scorpion tires round out the exterior updates.
Interior pictures are being kept under wraps until the beginning of the Paris show, but Volvo promises the sporty look continues inside thanks to Contour sport seats upholstered in a two-tone combination of Nubuck and perforated leather. Other upgrades include R-specific details on the floor mats, the pedals and the shift knob, while the XC90′s 12.3-inch tablet-like touch screen features a unique R-Design theme.
Volvo says the R-Design package can be ordered on all XC90s regardless of what engine is found under the hood. The package is strictly aesthetic and it doesn’t include any mechanical modifications.
The R-Design package will be available to order as soon as the XC90 lands in showrooms. Pricing information will be published closer to the crossover’s on-sale date.
