The latest addition to the trophy case came from the Texas Auto Writers Association during the Texas Auto Roundup, held this past weekend at the Texas Motor Speedway. The annual event draws more than 50 TAWA journalists to evaluate the industry's latest offerings...

Volvo has reset the table with its all-new XC90, says AutoGuide (AG). The Swedish automaker's large SUV entry harkens back to an earlier Volvo's classic and clean good looks, recast in a more modern silhouette, and now features cutting edge engine technology under the hood. Click "play" in the video clip below to watch AG's full report.

The first major revamp of the Volvo lineup under the new Tata ownership is extraordinarily promising. The look of the new XC90 is simple and elegant, and once again features the iconic grille design in a straight-up, solid-looking appearance...

Big, beautiful and bad to the bone, the all-new 2016 Volvo XC90 is, in our humble opinion here at Borton Volvo, one of the very best full-size SUVs on the road today.

Yet, what makes it so? The video below -- a review of the XC90 from AutoGuide.com Managing Editor, Jodi Lai -- will explain all:

It's admittedly rather tough to find fault with the X90's drivetrain. Its 2.0-liter four-cylinder is both super- and turbocharged and dishes out a dazzling 316 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. A snappy, eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive are served up…

It's official: the Volvo XC90 is the "Best of 2016." This appointment comes from Cars.com, a premiere automotive research and classifieds website. Categories taken into consideration during the judging process were quality, innovation, and value, and the XC90 clearly excelled in all three.

Next-level technology is expected in our current Volvo inventory here at Borton Volvo, and that includes safe communication on winter roads.

Luckily, Apple CarPlay technology is now available for the Volvo XC90, which allows for safer, smarter communication with your iPhone...

It is an honor to win the Motor Trend SUV of the Year award. However, it's extra special to win it twice, since only all-new or substantially redesigned vehicles are even considered.

Ushering in a new era of seven-passenger SUV's, the XC90 first won the award when it was introduced to the market in 2002. Now entering its 14th year of production, the XC90 has once again earned the coveted and iconic title. The supercharged and turbocharged, 316 horsepower Drive-E engine has an EPA rating of 25 miles-per-gallon highway...

Did you know that Volvo Cars has been in America for 60 years? Our preferred automaker made its way to the U.S.A. in 1955 after realizing the importance of the U.S. market, otherwise known as the "Land of the Motor Car," and here at Borton Volvo, we're glad they did.

 

From the classic Volvo P1800 to the modern day Volvo XC90, our preferred automaker has a history that is rich in Scandinavian design and impeccable quality, and you'll find traces of the P1800's subtle elegance in the latest version of the popular Volvo SUV.

The P1800 arrived in the U.S. in 1961, and though it possessed a four-cylinder, 1.8-liter engine with only 107 horsepower...

Happy throwback Thurday! The weekend is in sight once again and we have an awesome classic car to remind you about today.
