The XC40 and V60 B3 and B4 from sometime in 2022 use a dual clutch automated manual DCT gearbox - both these cars go into coast and the engine switches off totally until you touch the pedal.
None of the other cars do it - for example I had a 2023 S60 B5 as a courtesy recently which did not do it as it had the traditional torque converter gearbox, just like your V90. I believe the DCT can't take the torque of the diesel engine or the petrols beyond a certain power output.
To be completely honest, the torque converter box is far smoother moving off from rest having driven both extensively. The DCT gearbox is certainly more fuel efficient though.
