I put a Sony XAV-AX3005DB in, came as a kit with reversing camera, it does everything you listed and does it well (not Alexa but Google voice commands)

Android auto is brilliant but make sure you have it added to the ignore battery saving sleep mode list on your phone or the map will hang halfway into your journey

They've done a few updates since then so maybe not an issue now

also usually the headlight on/off triggers night and day mode on the map which is otherwise insanely bright at night, so I put in a manual switch to trigger it instead because obviously you don't turn lights on and off in a volvo

A recent update said that night and day mode is 'now independent from the phone' but still doesn't trigger on the head unit at this point in time
