Volvo’s newest flagship electric SUV, the EX90, arrives with an impressive suite of advanced capabilities and a premium price point to match its luxury positioning. The vehicle showcases a formidable Twin Motor setup generating 402 horsepower and 568 lb-ft of torque, while those seeking additional performance can opt for the Twin Motor Performance configuration that delivers a robust 510 horsepower and 671 lb-ft of torque.
These powertrains propel the EX90 from standstill to 60 mph in just 4.5 to 5.5 seconds, depending on specification.
The EX90’s 107 kWh liquid-cooled lithium-ion battery pack provides an EPA-estimated range of 300-310 miles on a single charge. Charging capabilities are equally impressive, with the vehicle supporting DC fast-charging at rates up to 250 kW, while an 11.0 kW onboard charger handles home charging duties.
Range anxiety? Not here. The EX90’s 107 kWh battery delivers 300+ miles with lightning-fast charging capabilities.
The efficiency ratings of 81-84 MPGe are respectable for a vehicle in this class. Like other modern electric vehicles, the EX90 may experience range reduction of 10-24% in cold weather conditions due to battery chemistry limitations.
Pricing begins at $79,995 for the entry-level Twin Motor Plus AWD with seven seats, while the Performance Ultra trim tops the range at $89,345. The mid-tier Ultra models start at $84,345 and offer optional six- or seven-seat configurations.
I’ve found that these prices, while premium, align with the vehicle’s positioning in the luxury electric SUV segment.
The interior is a technological showcase, featuring four-zone climate control, heated seats, and a heated steering wheel. The EX90 also incorporates Safe Space system that uses lidar technology to continuously map the surrounding area for enhanced safety. The vehicle represents a significant step in Volvo’s transition to electrification and serves as the brand’s top model upon its release. Cargo capacity ranges from 13 to 74 cubic feet depending on seat configuration.
The Google-based infotainment system offers voice-activated controls and navigation, while Pilot Assist provides semi-autonomous driving capabilities.
The EX90’s dimensions—198.3 inches long, 77.3 inches wide, and 68.8 inches tall—establish it as a substantial three-row SUV. Built on a 117.5-inch wheelbase, the vehicle delivers stable handling despite its considerable curb weight of 5,700 to 6,000 pounds.
For those requiring utility, the EX90 offers a respectable 4,850-pound towing capacity when properly equipped.
