Volvo Unveils Electric 2024 EX90 SUV With 300 Miles of Range
Moving toward the Swedish automaker’s goal of selling only EVs by 2030.
On the road to a fully electric future, Volvo has revealed its latest EV: the Volvo EX90. The vehicle, which is a true seven-seater SUV, marks the first of several electric cars that Volvo will release on an annual basis.
The vehicle will arrive with a four-wheel, dual-motor powertrain, capable of producing a combined 402 horsepower and 568 pound-feet of torque in the base model. Meanwhile, the Twin Motor Performance version will reach 496 horsepower and 671 pound-feet of torque. The company estimates that the former model will accelerate to 60 mph in 5.7 seconds, while the latter will reach the same speed in 4.7 seconds.
The EX90 is being built on the all-new Scalable Product Architecture (SPA2), which allows for a larger battery, stronger motors, faster charging and bidirectional power. The car’s exterior, which was previewed by the Concept Recharge, features carriage-style doors, which open to a roomier interior, thanks to the absence of an internal combustion engine. Inside, there’s a 14.5-inch center screen hosting an infotainment system with Google built-in.
“The Volvo EX90 is a statement for where we are, and where we are going,” said Jim Rowan, chief executive at Volvo. “It’s fully electric with a range of up to 300 miles on a single charge, designed to further raise our safety standards, the first Volvo car to be truly defined by its software and part of a wider ecosystem, connecting to your home and your other devices. The Volvo EX90 is the start of something new for Volvo Cars in many ways.”
Notably, Volvo aims to sell only fully electric cars by 2030, as part of their larger ambition of becoming a climate-neutral company by 2040.
The 2024 Volvo EX90 is now available for pre-order in the United States on the automaker’s website, with prices beginning under $80,000 USD. Customers will be asked to configure their vehicles in Fall 2023.
