2017 Volvo XC90: every variant sold in Australia
4 variants of the Volvo XC90 carry the 2017 model year in our catalogue — the SPA generation, sold new 2015–now. Specs, safety, economy and standard equipment for every grade, side by side.
The 2017 Volvo XC90 is no longer sold new in Australia. A price is shown only where we hold Volvo's own printed price for that variant: what it cost new, not a current offer or a used value. Specifications are kept for used-buyer research. See the current Volvo XC90.

We have not yet read the 2017 XC90’s equipment off a Volvo document, so no feature table renders here — an unverified blank is not a “No”. Each variant link above carries everything we do hold for that car.
What changed from the 2016 XC90
Measured row by row against the 2016 variants we hold, matching each grade on its name, body, gearbox and drive (2 variants match across both years). A grade listed below as in one year’s rows only may be a grade we have not added yet rather than one Volvo added or dropped; the variant table above is what we hold for 2017.
In our 2017 rows, not our 2016 rows: T8 Twin Engine AWD, T8 Twin Engine AWD Excellence.

Recalls on the 2017 Volvo XC90
Due to a manufacturing defect, the second-row seat belt buckle and lower anchor screw may become loose.
Published 2024-01-03. Year range on the notice: 2015 - 2023. Matched to 4 of the 4 variants on this page. REC-005861 on the government register
In the event of a collision if the seat belt does not operate as intended, the occupant of that seat may not receive the full protection of the seatbelt system and this could increase the risk of injury or death to vehicle occupants.
If there is liquid or liquid droplets on the rear seat control display, the system may perceive this as a constant touch.
Published 2021-06-20. Year range on the notice: 2017 - 2020. Matched to 4 of the 4 variants on this page. REC-001627 on the government register
If this occurs when the front passenger seat control is selected, the front passenger seat may be moved forward or backwards until it reaches its end position. This may result in injury to vehicle occupants.
The engine valve may leak and may cause the engine intake manifold to melt or deform.
Published 2019-11-08. Year range on the notice: 2015 - 2019. Matched to 4 of the 4 variants on this page. REC-001462 on the government register
If the engine intake manifold melts or deforms, there may be unusual engine operation, activation of the engine malfunction indication light, engine interruption or lack of power, or the possibility of a localised engine bay fire. If any of these were to occur, it may pose an accident or injury risk to the vehicle occupant(s) or other road users.
The engine valve may leak and may cause the engine intake manifold to melt/deform.
Published 2019-07-18. Year range on the notice: 2013 - 2019. Matched to 4 of the 4 variants on this page. REC-004905 on the government register
If the engine intake manifold melts/deforms, the engine may experience reduced power, increasing the risk of an accident, injury or fire hazard.
The short bleeder hose may become degraded and cracked, causing coolant leakage.
Published 2019-05-09. Year range on the notice: 2015 - 2019. Matched to 4 of the 4 variants on this page. REC-001461 on the government register
If the coolant accumulates on the catalytic converter on the lambda sensor connection, the catalytic converter heat insulation may act as a wick, potentially resulting in a fire.
The affected vehicles may have a leak in the hose on the fuel line.
Published 2019-01-10. Year range on the notice: 2014 - 2016. Matched to 4 of the 4 variants on this page. REC-001460 on the government register
If the defect occurs there is a risk of a fuel hose leak, the most common symptom being a fuel smell, which may pose a risk of injury to the vehicle occupants and other road users.
The air conditioning drainage hose, that is used to transfer condensation water generated by the air conditioning unit out of the vehicle, may not have been properly attached.
Published 2017-08-29. Year range on the notice: 2015 - 2017. Matched to 4 of the 4 variants on this page. REC-001495 on the government register
This might result in moisture inside the occupant compartment, which could lead to air conditioning functionality issues. In a worst case scenario, if the leakage has not been detected over a period of time, this condition could affect other electrical systems, posing a safety risk to the vehicle occupants.
Bolts holding the inflatable curtain in place could be affected by a manufacturing error that may cause the bolt head to detach, subsequently not fully securing the inflatable curtain in place.
Published 2017-03-16. Year range on the notice: 2016 - 2017. Matched to 4 of the 4 variants on this page. REC-001498 on the government register
In case of an accident, the functionality of the inflatable curtain may be decreased.
In the event of an accident, the airbag igniter may cause inadequate inflation of the driver, passenger and/or seat airbag units on the affected vehicles.
Published 2017-01-10. Matched to 4 of the 4 variants on this page. REC-001496 on the government register
In an accident this may cause the airbags to not inflate completely, reducing the level of protection for the driver and passengers.
Where a figure has not been read off a source document it reads “No data” rather than a zero or a dash, and an equipment column reads “No” only where a document confirms the feature is not available. Full specs, the source for each variant and a side-by-side configurator for every Volvo XC90 variant, including other model years, are on the model page.
