All-new Volvo XC90 gets 266 pre-orders in India

Within two months of its unveiling in India, the all-new Volvo XC90 has received 266 pre-orders. This, according to the carmaker, is a clear statement of the interest for the first new model based on Volvo’s in-house developed Scalable Product Architecture (SPA).

First deliveries of the all-new XC90 to customers will start later this month.

Tom von Bonsdorff, managing director, Volvo Auto India, said,"We already have a positive momentum before we start deliveries of the new XC90. So we are on track for another good year at Volvo Cars. The XC90 paves the way for a portfolio of exciting new cars to come in the following years.”

Globally over 57,000 orders have already been registered. The Torslanda plant in Gothenburg, Sweden has just started up a third production shift to meet customer demand for the new XC90. Globally, 76 percent of customers are choosing the top end Inscription model. Volvo Cars currently markets products through its dealerships in South Delhi, West Delhi, Gurgaon, Ahmedabad, Surat, Mumbai, Chandigarh, Coimbatore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Bangalore, Kochi, Vishakhapatnam, Pune and Kolkata.
