• Practicality remains a defining hallmark for Volvo cars in the transition to electrified mobility
The Volvo EX90 has been honoured for its all-round excellence, being named the Luxury Family Car of the Year in the 2024 TopGear.com Awards.
It was judged to have no rival when it comes to providing a complete package, combining efficient fully electric performance with user-friendly design and – essential for a family car – superb day-to-day practicality.
Ollie Marriage, Top Gear’s Head of Car Testing, said: “I’m not sure we’ve ever come across a car that better caters to all occupants than the Volvo EX90. It combines the benefits of electric power with genuinely thoughtful cabin design. And electric power is the right thing for families. It’s easier to manage and the EX90 is so smooth, so quiet, so effortless that driving it doesn’t occupy you, making it easier to deal with any chaos going on in the back.”
The award follows on from glowing TopGear.com reviews in which the seven-seat EX90 – the flagship fully electric SUV of the Volvo range – was acclaimed as “the first genuinely convincing premium school run car of the electric era” and “better thought out and more user-friendly than any other electric family SUV”.
Nicole Melillo Shaw, Volvo Car UK Managing Director, said: “Our brand has a long-established reputation for making cars that our consumers can rely on; combining premium quality with outstanding safety credentials. We are proud to also be pioneers in the new era of electrified motoring and technical innovation, and it is hugely rewarding to see this approach being recognised and applauded by TopGear.com.”
