For those opting for the fully electric 7-seater EX90, charging considerations are key. With an impressive range of up to 375.3 miles on a single charge, the EX90 is built for long journeys.

To make road trips even more seamless with a fully electric Volvo, here are some key features designed to keep your journey smooth and efficient:

• Range assistant in the centre display where you can optimise your car for maximum range.




• Extended battery range allows you to travel hundreds of miles on a single charge, reducing downtime on long journeys.
