0-60 times and comparisons

The 2.5 AWD will do the zero to sixty in just under 9-seconds, and the quarter mile in around 17-seconds flat. With all the people whining about the “need for a V8”, I thought you would be interested in seeing some milestones for comparison. This is just intended to put things into perspective, as there are many cars the XC90 2.5 AWD will blow into the weeds, and the opposite is also true:
