From some rumors, the Volvo XC90 Pickup Truck will hit the market probably by the end of 2017. According to the photos that we have, this model will be actually based on the existing SUV. The whole exterior design is very similar, but at the rear, we can see rear axle that is pushed back several inches. You probably know that this means longer wheelbase. Also, this model will also receive some changes in the chassis compared to the Volvo XC90 SUV.
Volvo XC90 Pickup Truck – Platform and Design:
The exterior design of Volvo XC90 Pickup Truck will be as we already mention very similar to the XC90 SUV. Its front fascia will be almost identical and here we can notice recognizable front grille from Volvo as well as with so many horizontal slats made from chrome. The headlights will be also identical to the XC90 SUV model. The system that powers it will be the newly LED technology. Also, the same system we can expect for the other lighting on the vehicle.
The bumper of Volvo XC90 Pickup Truck will be equipped with the large air intakes. Its fog lights are not notable at the pictures, but we assume that we can expect it. The rear side is changed compared to the XC90 SUV. When we say changed, we think that the rear axle that is pushed back for a bit. Thanks to that fact, this model will have a longer wheelbase and more spaces inside the cabin. At the sides, we have large wheels that will be most likely made from aluminum.
Interior Design:
Unfortunately, there are no photos of the cabin, and everything about the interior is based on the rumors. Fortunately, there is a lot of rumors about the cabin, but the most often ones is that we can expect almost identical cabin to the XC90 SUV. That means that all seats will be covered with the premium leather and that we can anticipate a lot of premium materials inside. Also, the Volvo XC90 Pickup Truck will provide more space inside compared to the regular SUV.
Engine Expectation:
The Volvo XC90 Pickup Truck will probably share the engine with the XC90 SUV. If that is true, we can expect 2.0-liter four-cylinder with the turbocharging and supercharging. This engine will be capable of delivering up to 316 horsepower. The power from the engine will be mated to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission system. If you want Hybrid model, you can expect this engine in combination with the 80-hp electric motor.
Price and Release Date:
The release date of the Volvo XC90 Pickup Truck will be most likely by the end of this, or even at the beginning of 2018. When it comes to prices, the Volvo didn’t announce official information.
