Overview
- Volvo updates its flagship electric SUV for model year 2026, moving from a 400-volt to an 800-volt system to support higher peak charging with reduced heat generation.
- The company claims about 10 minutes at a suitable high-power charger can add roughly 245–250 km under ideal conditions, while the exact peak charging figure is still unspecified and is reported to be near the ES90’s roughly 350 kW.
- The Core Computing Platform shifts to two Nvidia Drive AGX Orin processors, enabling Connected Safety alerts, an automatic E‑Call when Emergency Stop Assist activates, improved automatic emergency steering and a more capable Park Assist; existing 400‑volt EX90s will receive a processor retrofit during service visits.
- Reported outputs rise to 245 kW for the single-motor version, 335 kW for Twin Motor AWD and 500 kW for the Performance model, with 0–100 km/h times of 6.8, 5.5 and 4.2 seconds while the 180 km/h speed cap remains.
- Battery capacities do not change, so WLTP range figures are largely similar, including up to 620 km for the rear‑wheel‑drive 104 kWh variant, and European pricing starts at €85,990.
