Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/23/2011 -- Sanderson Volvo is proud to announce the arrival of the 2012 Volvo XC90 at its Phoenix, Arizona dealership. The 2012 luxury SUV follows in the footsteps of its predecessor with an upscale interior, stylish look, and a smooth ride.

The 2012 XC90 offers three rows of seating, comfortably accommodating five to seven passengers. With room for so many people, it is important to make sure everyone enjoys the ride, which is why the SUV offers electronic climate control with third row air conditioning and ergonomically designed seats for comfort and a dual screen rear entertainment center to keep everyone entertained.

The Volvo is powered by a 3.2-liter 6-cylinder engine, which produces 240 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque and earns an EPA-estimated fuel economy rating of 16 city MPG/23 highway MPG.
