Voitures de luxe - 2018 Volvo S90 Excellence & S90 Features, Interior Exterior & Drive <br />Volvo is placing an increasing emphasis on those customers who prefer to be chauffeured than to drive themselves around, from the introduction of the long-wheelbase S60L to the new XC90 Excellence. And now it's going a step further with the Lounge Console presented at the Shanghai Motor Show. <br /> <br />The concept is based on the aforementioned XC90 Excellence, which already removes the third row to make room for a pair of recliners. This version removes yet another seat: that of the front passenger. In its stead, Volvo has placed a console that provides the right-hand, rear-seat passenger an array of luxuries and conveniences. <br /> <br />The Console allows for more legroom with an added footrest, while incorporating a 17-inch monitor, tray table, vanity mirror, lock box, shoe drawer and storage tray for jewelry and makeup, all the while allowing for an unencumbered view of the road ahead. <br /> <br />The idea may seem in contrast with to the XC90's image as a family hauler, but would undoubtedly come as a welcome feature for wealthy customers for whom transporting children is not top priority. Particularly in China (home of Volvo parent-company Geely), where families are small, businessmen prefer the back seat to the driver's.
