Volvo XC90 named a winner in Good Housekeeping’s 2026 Family Car Awards

• The luxury three-row SUV earns repeat recognition for its combination of safety, comfort, and versatility for families
• Award reinforces Volvo Cars’ legacy of human-centric design and advanced safety innovation

The award-winning and best-selling Volvo XC90 has been named a winner in Good Housekeeping’s 2026 Family Car Awards, reaffirming its position as a leading SUV for families.

Starting at $61,050 MSRP, the XC90 offers the space, comfort, and versatility that families need. Its Scandinavian-inspired interior features high-quality materials and intuitive technology, ensuring a connected and comfortable experience for all passengers. With a choice of mild-hybrid or plug-in hybrid powertrains, the XC90 delivers confident performance for daily commutes, weekend getaways, and everything in between.

At Volvo Cars, safety is all about people. In 1959, the company introduced the three-point safety belt and shared the patent with the world, which is credited with helping to save over a million lives.   This human-centric approach continues to drive the company’s safety innovations today, helping to protect and care for everyone in and around a Volvo car.

Built on this commitment to safety, the XC90 comes standard with advanced driver-assistance and collision-mitigation technologies, including forward collision warnings, automated emergency braking, lane-keeping aids, and adaptive cruise control. These features help provide families with peace of mind on the road and reflect Volvo Cars’ ongoing dedication to innovation and a safer driving experience.

"This recognition from Good Housekeeping reflects what families have loved about the XC90 since we launched the first generation in 2002: people trust the XC90 to help protect what matters most," said Luis Rezende, President, Volvo Car Americas. "Receiving this award is a testament to our ongoing commitment to safety and thoughtful design that benefits families every day."
