7 cool things about the all-new Volvo ES90

Recently, we launched our new flagship model, the all-electric Volvo ES90. It’s the sixth fully electric model in our line-up, and an important milestone as we continue our journey towards full electrification.

Combining the refined elegance of a sedan, the adaptability of a fastback and the spacious interior and higher ground clearance of an SUV, our newest model is truly in a class of its own – and for some very good reasons.

1. Faster charging and longer range than any electric Volvo
The new ES90 charges faster and goes further than any electric Volvo car before. Powered by our new 800-volt technology, along with completely new battery management software and hardware and a sleek design, the ES90 lets you charge up to 300 km in just 10 minutes at 350 kW fast charging stations. If you fill the battery up completely, the ES90 offers an impressive range of up to 700 km on one charge under the WLTP testing cycle.

2. Our best aerodynamics ever
Sleek and practical: the ES90 drives more efficiently than any car we’ve ever built, thanks to its design. It has a drag coefficient of no more than 0.25 – the lower the value, the less air resistance. All things equal, this translates into less energy consumption and a longer driving range. The ES90’s sleek design with a sloping roofline contributes to its excellent aerodynamics.

3. Powered by dual core computing
The ES90 is the most powerful car we’ve ever created in terms of core computing capacity and our second software-defined car. It’s equipped with a dual NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Orin configuration, which handles functionalities such as, state-of-the-art active safety features, car sensors and efficient battery management at ultra-fast speeds. This allows us to further raise the bar on safety and overall performance through data, software and AI. In short, the ES90 is a car designed for safe and enjoyable journeys every day, and to evolve and improve over time.

4. Maximum versatility: up to 733 litres of loading space
With the ES90, you get ample space for all the things you want to bring along on your journey. The large and wide tailgate hatch makes it easy to load and unload luggage or gear. Folding the rear seats provides up to 733 litres of practical loading space while the boot alone offers 424 litres without folding the rear seats. If needed, all rear seats can be folded down individually. Adding to versatility, there’s also a 16-litre storage under the load floor, while the 22-litre capacity frunk at the front is perfect for your charging cables.

5. Our pioneering driver understanding system
When we develop our cars, we embrace the fact that drivers can sometimes be tired or distracted. That’s why the new ES90 comes standard with a driver understanding system that detects when your mind is not focused on the road and steps in to support. This advanced system uses real-time sensing technology to understand if a driver is impaired, tired, or distracted, so the car can step in to support if needed.

6. One of the best-sounding car audio systems
The ES90 offers three levels of sound systems, led by a top-of-the-line Bowers & Wilkins system. Created in close collaboration with the sound engineers at Bowers & Wilkins, the High-Fidelity audio system in the ES90 brings exceptional clarity and realism to music, wherever you’re seated. The 25 separate hi-fi speakers, generating a total power of 1,610 watts, include the iconic tweeter-on-top centre speaker, as well as headrest and ceiling speakers. The system also features the lifelike spatial audio of Dolby Atmos® that delivers an immersive sound experience all around you.

When artists create a song, podcast, or movie in Dolby Atmos, they’re able to place individual sounds in multidimensional space to create a full, rich listening experience.

7. Electrochromic panoramic roof for ultimate comfort
The ES90 also comes with a panoramic roof that provides UV protection of up to 99.9 per cent. And if you pick the electrochromic version, you can even adjust the transparency of the glass. So if you’re travelling on a warm summer’s day and you want to ‘turn down’ the sun a bit to reduce glare and boost privacy, you can do so at the touch of a button.
