When it comes to buying a car, one of the most important factors to consider when choosing between two models is safety. The Volvo brand has always been known as one of the safest vehicle brands on the market; in fact, in 2017, they scored 100% on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) crash test rating.

Volvo and Audi are two of the best car brands in the world, and that's why it might be pretty challenging to decide which one of them you should choose when it comes to buying your next car. These companies offer great designs, new features, unique engines, and more, so choosing between them might not be an easy task.

If you want to understand why the 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country is so much better than the 2022 Audi Q5, you first need to know the two cars. Let's start with some basic stats.

Design & Style

  • Exterior Design 

Both cars have clean lines, making them almost look like clones of each other from far away. Look closer, and you'll notice small differences in details such as headlights, grilles, and taillights that make each car unique. While both feature boxy bodies with wide fenders and low hoods, the 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country has a much more stylish design thanks to front quarter panels with sharp edges and an equally angular rear end; it looks sportier than its competitor as well as more practical for carrying cargo.

  • Interior Design

While they both offer lots of technology and luxury options, the 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country is a clear winner when it comes to interior design. The futuristic design creates a luxurious vibe while providing maximum comfort to drivers and passengers alike. While most other SUVs have focused on exterior style, there are plenty of companies that continue to push into new territory when it comes to interior innovations-and those vehicles have been consistently well-received by critics and buyers alike in recent years (as anyone who's driven an Audi A4 can tell you). The 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country is among them, which has an impressive vision for what future SUVs could be like.

  • Technology & Safety

Both offer a good array of technologies, but if you're looking for a car that will keep you up to date with all tech and safety advances, the 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country is not only offering you more choices, but it also has a better standard equipment level at no extra cost and higher manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP). If driver-assistance features such as automatic emergency braking are your priority, then the 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country will be your best bet! 

Performance

Both 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country and 2022 Audi Q5 have about equivalent torque for their weight class. But 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country beats out 2022 Audi Q5 in both horsepower and torque categories at higher speeds, so it's got a bit more zip if speed is more important to you than low-end performance. Similarly, the 2021 Volvo V90 Cross Country has a better fuel economy.

The new model gets 30 mpg in highway mode, and it can hold 18 gallons of fuel, offering more than 500 miles of travel before needing to refill it again with gasoline or diesel fuel. 2022 Audi Q5 doesn't have a great environmental record as far as greenhouse gases are concerned, but despite being slightly less efficient than its competitor, it has a 7mpg better efficiency rating. It gets 24mpg city and 31 highway which translates into 535 miles per tank, making you spend $100 on gas every two weeks.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a luxury SUV that can seamlessly handle any type of terrain, then either of these vehicles would be an excellent choice for your needs. But, if you're more concerned with interior comfort, quietness and cargo space then 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country is a clear winner in terms of cabin space; it offers over 100 liters extra room than its German counterpart while still providing great road handling and power when needed on tighter streets. In short; if you have to haul heavy loads frequently (or large amounts of people) you'll love what 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country has to offer! It also has superior safety ratings as well!
