The EX90 will not be Volvo's first electric model, but it will be the first Volvo built specifically to be an electric model. It represents the direction the brand is moving in, and the future looks bright. The EX90 is an all-electric SUV with a range of up to 300 miles and seating for 7. It is very similar in size to the XC90, and while the styling is similar as well, it's still recognizable as a new and excitingly advanced vehicle. A performance version of the EX90 will be available as well, with even more than the already ample power of the standard version.
Volvo EX90 Features
Serious Performance
Performance probably isn't the first thing you think of when you think of three-row SUVs, as most tend not to pack the kind of power needed to move a larger vehicle quickly. But the dual motors in the EX90 produce a combined 402 horsepower, as well as 568lb-ft of torque. Those are already some serious numbers, but a Twin Motor Performance version of the EX90 will also be produced, which will have 496 horsepower and 671lb-ft of torque. This performance variant will hit 60mph in just 4.7 seconds. Those are serious sports car numbers, but from a vehicle with plenty of space to stretch out and relax. Huge 15.7-inch front brake rotors, as well as 15.4-inch rear rotors, mean that the EX90 will stop impressively quickly as well, always a good thing.
An Even More Advanced EV
The first Volvo built from the ground up to the be EV, the EX90 is also a technology showcase, showing the direction the brand is going. The EX90 will introduce a new EV architecture for Volvo. This 400-volt architecture will allow for 250kWh charging, meaning you can charge from 10 to 80 percent in about 30 minutes with DC fast charging. It will also allow for bi-directional charging, so you can power your house during grid outages, or share your charge with another EV while away from a charger. Safety technology is also highly advanced, including features like lidar and interior occupant sensing. In fact, Volvo says this is "safer than any Volvo car to come before it," which is a very impressive thing coming from Volvo.
Luxury Experience
The interior of the EX90 is immediately recognizable as a Volvo interior, with the Scandinavian design sensibilities on full display. But it is also an evolution of those ideas, cutting down on clutter to better show off the premium materials and clean look of the vehicle. The vertical central touchscreen is a design feature of current Volvo models, but here the 14.5-inch unit is noticeably quite a bit larger than the 9-inch unit in the existing models. Volvo is already making use of sustainably-sourced wool for the upholstery in existing models, but the EX90 will also introduce Nordico, a soft leather substitute made in part from recycled plastic bottles. In total, 15 percent of the plastics used in the EX90 are recycled or from bio-based sources, with Volvo planning to increase that number to 25 percent in the coming years. Adding to the Scandinavian living room feel of the EX90's interior is the incredibly smooth ride that comes with air suspension, which the EX90 has as standard. And an incredible 25-speaker Bowers & Wilkins stereo system is available, for an unparalleled listening experience.
