2025 Volvo EX90 Preview: The Quiet Luxury EV SUV
Volvo EX90
Volvo is bringing its reputation for safety, premium amenities, and sustainable materials to the 3-row electric SUV space with the all-new 2025 EX90. After a recent preview ride, here’s an in-depth look at what to expect from this flagship electric Volvo.
Volvo EX90 Hushed Luxury Cockpit
The first thing you notice when riding in the EX90 is the serene silence. Unlike many EVs that pipe in artificial sounds, Volvo took a rational approach – letting the EV’s quiet operation speak for itself. The brand aimed to create its quietest cabin ever in the EX90.
This philosophy extends to the premium, uncluttered interior design inspired by Scandinavian modernism. Highlights include:
- Backlit wood veneer accents
- Minimalist aesthetic with ample storage
- Optional premium wool-blend or vegan “leather” upholstery
- Panoramic glass roof
- 14.5-inch center touchscreen (no excess buttons/screens)

Volvo EX90 Smooth, Stable Ride
Volvo prioritized a comfortable, refined ride quality worthy of a flagship luxury SUV. Contributing to the EX90’s planted driving experience:
- Air suspension with dual chambers
- Active dampers for instant response to bumps
- Low center of gravity from underfloor battery pack
- Torque vectoring for improved agility
The EX90 has just two ride settings – a comfort-tuned default or a slightly firmer sport mode. Even the stiffer setup keeps things plush and level, in classic Volvo fashion.

Volvo EX90 Potent Electric Performance
While not a performance model per se, the EX90 has plenty of smooth electric power:
- Twin Motor AWD (Base):
- 402 hp
- 0-60 mph ~5.7 sec
- ~300 mile range (est.)
- Twin Motor Performance:
- 510 hp
- 0-60 mph ~4.7 sec
- Slightly lower range
Volvo’s new torque vectoring system aids acceleration traction and low-speed maneuverability in the EX90.

Flagship Tech and Safety
As Volvo’s most advanced model yet, the EX90 packs in all the latest driver assistance and safety technologies:
- Lidar sensors
- 8 cameras
- 12 ultrasonic sensors
- Advanced driver monitoring cameras
- Redundant systems for autonomous driving capability
Volvo envisions the EX90 as a key step toward its “vision of zero crashes” through increasingly automated safety features over time.

Sustainable, Forward-Thinking
The EX90 showcases Volvo’s commitment to sustainability:
- Wool blend and recycled polyester interior options
- Vegan “leather” made from biomaterials
- Bidirectional charging capability
- Efficient electric powertrain
While not drastically different in size/shape from the combustion XC90, the EX90 brings Volvo into the modern electric age with a focus on eco-friendly luxury.
Pricing is still TBA, but the 2025 Volvo EX90 looks to provide a compelling all-electric option for buyers looking for:
- 3-row seating and SUV practicality
- Ultra-quiet, premium cabin amenities
- Strong performance with 300+ mile range
- Advanced safety tech and autonomous driving capability
- Sustainable materials and energy solutions
For those not ready for an EV, an updated gas-powered Volvo XC90 will continue for the foreseeable future as well.
The 2025 Volvo EX90 electric SUV will arrive in late 2024. Let us know in the comments – does this new flagship EV have what it takes to earn your interest?
