2025 VOLVO EX90: MEET THE NEW 3-ROW FLAGSHIP VOLVO SUV!

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Volvo EX90 represents a significant leap forward for the brand, serving as a futuristic, three-row electric successor to the XC90. The exterior design modernizes Volvo's signature look with futuristic touches like the split Thor's Hammer headlights and flush door handles. Inside, the EX90 boasts a completely new, luxurious, and largely leather-free interior featuring Nordico upholstery, open-pore wood trim, and a minimalist dashboard dominated by a 14.5-inch infotainment screen running on Android Automotive. The reviewer highlights the spaciousness of the second row, with ample headroom and legroom, and notes the convenience of the integrated booster seat. The third row is deemed comfortable for average adults, offering decent legroom and headroom, though less than the second row. Cargo space is generous, with power-folding third-row seats enhancing practicality. The reviewer praises the standard safety features, including the lidar sensor, and the premium Bowers & Wilkins sound system. However, the lack of a physical start button and the need to adjust steering wheel and mirrors via the touchscreen are noted as minor drawbacks. The fixed panoramic sunroof without an integrated sunshade (requiring an optional add-on) is also a point of contention. Performance figures indicate a standard dual-motor AWD producing 402 hp with a 0-60 mph time of 5.7 seconds, and an optional performance upgrade to 510 hp with a 4.7-second 0-60 mph time. The estimated range is up to 300 miles, with DC fast charging capable of reaching 10-80% in 30 minutes. Pricing starts just under $80,000 for the Plus trim, with the Ultra model and performance upgrade adding to the cost, pushing fully optioned vehicles into the mid-to-upper $90,000 range. The review also touches on resale value and reliability, estimating a lower-than-average resale value and a below-average reliability index for Volvo EVs.
