VOLVO EX90 REVIEW: IS THIS £100,000 ALL-ELECTRIC 7-SEATER WORTH IT? RANGE, SPACE & FEATURES!

EV Channels Review

The Volvo EX90 is presented as a premium, all-electric 7-seater SUV with a significant price tag, aiming to justify its cost through luxury, advanced safety, and practicality. The reviewer highlights the EX90's powerful dual-motor AWD powertrains, offering outputs of 480hp (Ultra) and 517hp (Performance Ultra), both capable of a 374-mile range from their 111 kWh battery. Interior quality, comfort, and space are praised, with features like sustainable Nordico upholstery, a 14.5-inch touchscreen, and optional built-in booster seats noted. However, the reviewer finds the new electric Volvo design a bit too simplistic, losing some of the brand's previous edge. Criticisms include an overcomplicated glove box access via the infotainment system and fiddly mirror controls. While the third row offers decent space and comfort for shorter journeys, it lacks charging ports, making the Kia EV9 a potentially better option for maximizing third-row comfort. The adaptive air suspension is lauded for its plush ride and ability to lower the boot for easier loading, especially for pets. Despite the high price, the reviewer concludes that Volvo has elevated every aspect of the EX90, particularly safety, justifying the cost for those seeking a premium, safe, and technologically advanced electric family vehicle.
