The Volvo XC90 is designed primarily for onroad driving, and it has excellent handling characteristics on very rough or unpaved roads.
When driving on poorly maintained or unpaved roads, please keep the following in mind:
• Reduce speed on rough surfaces to minimize possible damage to the vehicle's underbody.
• When driving on soft surfaces such as dry sand or snow, try to avoid stopping if at all possible.
