Volvo has presented its new electric sedan, the Volvo ES90, a model that arrives to expand the range of electric vehicles from the Swedish firm. It is a fully electric sedan that incorporates the latest technological innovations, betting on advanced architecture and sustainable materials. With a Focus on comfort, efficiency and safety, the ES90 aims to position itself as an alternative in the premium sedan segment, rivaling models such as the BMW i7, Mercedes Benz EQS and Tesla Model S.
The Volvo ES90 marks a turning point in the brand's electrification, incorporating important advances in autonomy, fast charging and driving assistance. With an aerodynamic and elegant design, this model opts for a modern aesthetic that combines efficiency with comfort.
Innovative and aerodynamic design…
The design of the Volvo ES90 stands out for its aerodynamic line and balanced proportions. With almost Meters long 5 and a wheelbase of 3,10 meters, offers a spacious and comfortable cabin. The ground clearance is higher than usual in sedans, which gives it a robust image and a better driving position.
One of the most distinctive elements is the sloping roof at the rear, which moves away from the traditional design of three-box sedans. The large tailgate Improves accessibility to the trunk, making loading and unloading easier.
The front incorporates the iconic 'Thor's Hammer' light signature, reinterpreted with the latest generation of LED technology. The rear lights adopt a 'C' shape, divided into two sections, reinforcing the visual identity of the vehicle. This design will be essential to compete in the market, where other models such as the Mercedes-Benz EQE also set trends.
A luxury interior with sustainable materials…
The ES90's cabin reflects Volvo's commitment to minimalism and sustainability. Recycled and sustainably sourced materials are present in multiple elements, from the seating textiles to the FSC-certified wood panels.
The panoramic glass roof provides great luminosity to the interior and has a system electrochromic which allows the opacity to be adjusted according to the user's needs. In addition, the ambient lighting system allows a choice between different configurations inspired by Scandinavian nature.
The infotainment system is dominated by a 14,5-inch central touch screen, which almost completely eliminates physical buttons. It integrates Google services with 5G connectivity and wireless software updates. This puts the Volvo ES90 in the same league as other technologically advanced models such as the Nissan N7 EV.
800-volt architecture and ultra-fast charging…
One of the main novelties of the ES90 is the adoption of an electric power system. 800 volts, a technology that improves efficiency and significantly reduces charging times.
Thanks to this architecture, the vehicle is able to withstand loads up to 350 kW, allowing you to recover up to 300 kilometers of autonomy in just 10 minutes. On a longer charge, it can go from 10 to 80% in approximately 20 minutes.
Autonomy of up to 700 kilometers…
The ES90 is available with different battery and powertrain configurations. The most powerful version features a XNUMX-liter battery. 106 kWh, providing an autonomy of up to 700 kilometers in the WLTP cycle. For the rear-wheel drive version, with a capacity of 92 kWh, autonomy reaches the 650 kilometers.
In addition, the front axle disconnection system in all-wheel drive versions helps to optimize energy efficiency when all-wheel drive is not required. This type of efficiency is similar to that found in models such as the Volkswagen ID.7.
State-of-the-art security and technology…
Volvo has equipped the ES90 with a state-of-the-art safety package. The Safe Space Sensor Set It includes a LiDAR, five radars, eight cameras and twelve ultrasonic sensors, providing advanced reading of the environment.
Driving assistance systems include collision avoidance systems, adaptive cruise control and an advanced semi-autonomous driving system that improves the on-road experience.
Inside the cabin, active safety features include driver monitoring, with cameras that detect signs of fatigue or distraction, and an intuitive user interface that minimises the risk of distractions while driving. Safety is a priority, especially when competing with electric sedans like the zeekr 007.
Sustainability and use of recycled materials…
Sustainability is a key aspect in the development of the ES90. Volvo has employed Recycled materials in numerous components:
- El 29% of aluminum and 18% of the steel used is recycled.
- El 16% of plastic materials are of recycled or biological origin.
- The interior wood panels are FSC certified.
In addition, the vehicle is delivered with a battery passport, a tool based on blockchain technology that allows the origin of lithium, cobalt, nickel and graphite used in the battery to be traced, providing greater transparency in its manufacture.
Availability and prices…
The Volvo ES90 is now available for reservation, with a starting price of 72.752 eurosThe first units will reach customers at the end of 2025, with deliveries estimated for the first months of 2026.
With the ES90, Volvo is betting on a sedan that combines luxury, efficiency y advanced technology. This model joins the brand's electrification strategy, offering an alternative to electric SUVs and reinforcing its commitment to the sustainable mobility.
