The Platinum adds a premium stereo, navigation system with a backup camera and a blind spot monitoring system.

The 2012 Volvo XC90 seats up to seven people, and the front and rear passenger seats fold down to provide more cargo room. A second-row child booster seat is standard equipment.

A 240-hp 3.2-liter inline-six motor is available with front-wheel or all-wheel drive, paired with a Geartronic six-speed automatic transmission, which allows driver-selectable shifting. When equipped for towing it can tow up to 5,000 pounds.

Volvo is a leader in safety awards, and the 2012 XC90 will further their reign.
