The 2022 Volvo S90 has a marvelous exterior with standardized safety functions and serious performance. But is it enough to surpass the 2022 Porsche 718, a vehicle which many consider a masterpiece due to its handling, build options and superb transmissions?
Design & Style
The Porsche 718 is a two seater that has rear wheel drive and comes in the form of either a coupe or roadster. It has classy bi-xenon lights which are adaptive with lovely sight lines and aerodynamic outer curves. Its flanks are well sculpted with prominent air intakes which are designed to cool down its engines, and within the cabin passengers will be presented with a centralized console that is full of multiple buttons and control. The metallic trim looks fantastic as does the upholstery.
The Volvo S90 is a very sophisticated car with a grille that has been revised with low yet extended hood proportions. Hatpin LEDs can be seen in front with taillights in the back that are C-shaped, and buyers get the option of very interesting sounding paint hues such as Icy Silver Blue or Icy Gray. Within the cabin passengers will be presented with high end materials such as supple leather and wooden trim which is low gloss, along with high definition displays.
Technology & Safety
The Volvo S90 has captured the coveted Top Safety Pick due to its extensive crash prevention features, which include blind area monitoring, Pilot Assist, lane and cruise control that is adaptive, emergency automated brakes and a camera with surround view. Perks within its cabin include nine inch touchscreens, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, wireless charging for smartphones, panoramic sunroof and powered seats that can be heated or cooled depending on the season.
The Porsche 718 comes with many of the same features that are found in the S90, including superb outward vision, emergency automated brakes, blind area monitoring and parking assistance. Comforts which can be found in its cabin include mirrors which auto dim, satellite radio, seven inch touchscreens, Apple CarPlay, climate control which covers two zones, and seats that can be manually adjusted and heated.
Performance
The Porsche 718 GTS comes with a flat 6, 4 liter engine that can generate up to 414 horsepower, which allows it to accelerate from zero to sixty in just 4.3 seconds. Each model comes with a manual six speed transmission. The Volvo S90 T6 is equipped with engine that will generate 316 horsepower with 295 pounds of torque, which allows it to go from zero to sixty in just six seconds.
The Bottom Line
The Volvo S90 is a respectable car, but its trunk is too small, its powertrains are not as refined as the Porsche and the 718 has better maximum performance, making it the winner.
