Engine noise levels are OK. I think overall interior noise is similar between the two cars.

Do not by an XC 90 and expect the engine / exhaust to sound aggressive or pleasant or anything else. With the possible exception of the faint whine of the supercharger winding up, which I actually enjoy, the noises coming out of the engine are not going to be the reason you buy this car. The 6 and 8 cylinder X5s sound great at start up. The Volvo, not so much.
