Volvo EX90 Set for India Arrival: Scandinavian Luxury Meets Next-Gen EV Tech

 Volvo is gearing up to introduce its all-electric flagship SUV, the Volvo EX90, targeting the ultra-premium luxury segment in India. Expected to carry an ex-showroom price tag between ₹1.20 Crore and ₹1.40 Crore, the three-row electric SUV will serve as the brand's technological spearhead, positioned alongside the combustion-engine XC90.

Key Specifications & Architecture

Built on Volvo’s dedicated SPA2 EV platform, the EX90 emphasizes long-range touring capability, quiet performance, and Scandinavian design minimalism.

Battery Capacity	111 kWh gross (approx. 106 kWh usable)
Claimed Range	Up to 600–625 km (WLTP test cycle)
Drivetrain	Twin-motor All-Wheel Drive (AWD)
Estimated Price	₹1.20 – ₹1.40 Crore (ex-showroom)

Hardware-Ready Autonomy: Roof-Mounted LiDAR

The highlight of the EX90’s safety suite is the integrated roof-mounted LiDAR sensor, placed above the windshield line.

• 250-Metre Detection: Operating in both bright daylight and pitch darkness, the pulsed-laser system scans terrain up to 250 metres ahead.

• Comprehensive Sensor Shield: LiDAR works alongside 8 exterior cameras, 5 radar modules, and 16 ultrasonic sensors to generate a real-time, 360-degree protective field.

• Cabin Driver-Monitoring: Dual interior cameras monitor driver alertness and eye tracking to prevent accidents caused by fatigue or distraction.

Sustainable Luxury & Interior Highlights

Inside, the cabin swaps traditional leather for responsibly sourced, eco-friendly materials such as Nordico (a bio-attributed textile crafted from recycled PET and pine resin) alongside FSC-certified wood panels.

The dashboard is anchored by a vertically oriented 14.5-inch touchscreen running Google built-in, coupled with a slim digital driver's display. High-spec trims feature a multi-speaker Bowers & Wilkins premium sound system with Dolby Atmos integration and headrest-mounted acoustic drivers.

Market Rivals

Upon arrival in India via the CBU (Completely Built Unit) import route, the Volvo EX90 will compete directly against heavyweights in the flagship electric luxury space, including the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV, BMW iX, and the Audi Q8 e-tron.
