THE MOTORCALIBER REVIEW
MotorCaliber editorial Reviewed against NHTSA data 2026-07-02

The Volvo V90 Cross Country B6 AWD is a premium lifted wagon aimed at buyers who want Scandinavian refinement, all-weather capability, and a practical alternative to the luxury SUV crowd. Positioned above the standard V90, the Cross Country variant adds raised ride height and standard all-wheel drive, targeting affluent buyers who prioritize understated elegance over brash styling.

The 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country B6 AWD presents a genuinely reassuring safety picture given the data we have available, though it comes with one significant caveat: NHTSA has not crash-tested this model year, so there are no federal star ratings to anchor any objective structural assessment. Shoppers expecting hard numbers from the government will not find them here. On the positive side, the recall count across the 2022 model year sits at zero, which is a clean slate by any measure. Only one owner complaint has been filed in the years we cover, and that single report carries no crashes, no fires, no injuries, and no fatalities. The complaint record is about as quiet as it gets. Volvo as a brand has long built its identity around safety engineering, and the V90 Cross Country benefits from the suite of active safety technology that Volvo routinely equips across its lineup. That brand reputation is worth noting as context, but MotorCaliber evaluates documented federal data, and on that front the picture is thin rather than alarming. Bottom line: the absence of recalls and near-absence of complaints are genuinely encouraging signals. The missing crash-test data, however, means safety-focused shoppers cannot make a complete, data-driven structural comparison against tested rivals. If federal star ratings matter to you, that gap is real and worth weighing carefully.

WHAT REVIEWERS SAYReviewers generally praise the V90 Cross Country for its composed, refined driving character and upscale cabin materials, noting that it delivers a uniquely calm highway presence rare in the segment. Most consider it an appealing alternative to conventional luxury SUVs, highlighting its practical wagon body, elevated ride height, and well-executed interior comfort as standout qualities.

WHAT TO KNOW
  • NHTSA has not crash-tested the 2022 V90 Cross Country B6 AWD, meaning there are no federal star ratings available for this model year. Shoppers who rely on government crash scores for purchase decisions should be aware of this gap.
  • The 2022 model year carries zero recalls, which is a positive data point and suggests Volvo identified no safety-critical defects requiring a federal remedy in this vehicle.
  • Only one owner complaint has been filed with NHTSA for the covered model year, and that complaint is associated with zero reported crashes, fires, injuries, or deaths. The complaint record is exceptionally sparse.
  • Because crash-test data is absent, buyers seeking a fully documented structural safety comparison should cross-reference the V90 Cross Country against NHTSA or IIHS results from closely related Volvo models, keeping in mind that shared platforms do not guarantee identical test outcomes.
