2022 Volvo S90 vs. 2022 Honda Clarity

When it comes to the luxury car market, Volvo and Honda are two brands that only sometimes appear in the same sentence. After all, they're completely different companies with their own unique identity. However, this year, Volvo and Honda have something in common: They both have new cars for 2022. While we've already covered the Honda Clarity on this blog before, we thought it would be interesting to compare it to its closest competitor - the 2022 Volvo S90. So here's everything you need to know about these two vehicles!

Design & Style

• Exterior Design

When it comes to the exterior design, both vehicles have a sleek look and feel. The 2022 Volvo S90 has a sportier appearance with its aggressive front bumper, distinct headlamps with LED daytime running lights (DRLs), and slim taillights. It also features an air scoop integrated into its roofline that improves airflow over the engine compartment while adding visual interest as well as reducing wind noise at higher speeds.

The 2022 Honda Clarity, on the other hand, has more of an elegant appearance thanks to its standard 18-inch alloy wheels wrapped in runflat tires, chrome accent trim on both sides of the vehicle's lower fascia - including around its fog lamps - and multi-link rear suspension design that enhances stability during cornering maneuvers without sacrificing ride quality or comfort.

• Interior Design

The Volvo S90 has a unique interior design, with the steering wheel, center console, and gearshift all integrated into one piece. The Honda Clarity is more conventional with its split-level dashboard and two separate steering wheels-one for the driver and one for the front passenger.

Both have high-quality materials, but Volvo's take on an abstracted leather look gives it an edge over Honda's more traditional approach. Both cars offer excellent outward visibility (though some drivers may find themselves distracted by their phones if they're sitting in either of these infotainment systems).

Technology & Safety

The 2022 Volvo S90 is the first car to feature a reverse pilot system, which allows you to drive in reverse safely using just your foot on the gas pedal. This can be particularly handy if children or pets are running around behind your car and you need to back up without looking behind you. The 2022 Honda Clarity has no such technology, but it does have rear parking sensors with cross-traffic alerts that can detect vehicles approaching from either side of the car when backing out of a parking spot.

Performance

As for the engine specs of these two cars, the 2022 Volvo S90 is equipped with a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four engine that can produce 295 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. The 2022 Honda Clarity also has a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four engine that can deliver 252 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque to its wheels.

The Bottom Line

At the end of the day, if you're looking for a crossover that has it all-from amazing performance to top-of-the-line safety features-and can handle your family's needs with style and grace, the 2022 Volvo S60 is just about perfect.
