Volvo EX90 and ES90 India Launch: Price, Features, Battery and Range

Volvo is expanding its electric vehicle portfolio in India with two premium models, the EX90 electric SUV and the ES90 electric sedan. The EX90 was launched on October 12, 2026, at an introductory ex-showroom price of Rs 1.26 crore. The ES90 was also scheduled for an India debut, although its final launch status, price and India-specific specifications remained unconfirmed in the latest available reports.

The EX90 becomes Volvo’s flagship electric SUV in India, positioned above the brand’s existing electric models. The ES90 is intended to strengthen the company’s presence in the luxury electric sedan category and mark its return to this segment after the S90 was discontinued in India in 2025.

Volvo EX90 Price and India-Spec Powertrain

The Volvo EX90 has been launched in India at an introductory ex-showroom price of Rs 1.26 crore. The India-spec model is offered in a six-seat configuration and comes in the fully equipped Ultra variant.

Power comes from a 106kWh battery pack paired with a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system. The motors produce a combined output of 456hp and 670Nm of torque. Volvo claims that the SUV can accelerate from 0 to 100kmph in 5.5 seconds, while its top speed is electronically limited to 180kmph.

The EX90 has a claimed WLTP driving range of up to 625km on a full charge. Actual range can vary depending on driving style, traffic, road conditions, weather, passenger load and the use of climate control.

The SUV is based on Volvo’s SPA2 electric vehicle architecture, which uses an 800-volt electrical system. It supports DC fast charging at up to 350kW, with a claimed charging time of approximately 22 minutes to replenish the battery from 10 to 80 per cent under suitable conditions.

Exterior Design and Dimensions

The EX90 follows Volvo’s minimalist design approach, with a closed-off front fascia and clean body surfaces. Its lighting design includes T-shaped LED headlamps with pixel-style daytime running light signatures and C-shaped LED tail-lamps at the rear.

The SUV also features flush-style exterior elements and 21-inch alloy wheels. Its upright body design reflects its positioning as a large family-oriented luxury electric SUV. The model is designed to offer a combination of road presence, cabin space and long-distance usability.

Volvo has also incorporated air suspension, which can adjust the vehicle’s ride height according to driving conditions. The system is intended to balance comfort with ground clearance when required.

Interior Features and Six-Seat Layout

The India-spec EX90 is offered exclusively as a six-seater. Its second row uses individual captain’s chairs that slide and recline, while the third row provides additional seating for passengers.

The cabin features a minimalist dashboard with a 14.5-inch portrait touchscreen infotainment system and a 9-inch digital driver display. The central screen handles many vehicle functions, while the overall interior design focuses on a clean layout and premium materials.

Other features include two-tone Nappa leather upholstery, brushed aluminium trim, a panoramic sunroof with switchable transparency, four-zone climate control and configurable ambient lighting. The SUV also gets a 25-speaker Bowers & Wilkins audio system, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a wireless charging pad, a digital key and a cabin air purifier.

A 360-degree camera and automatic parking assistance are included among its convenience technologies. The equipment list and functions should be checked with an authorised Volvo dealership before booking.

Safety and Driver Assistance

Safety remains a major part of the EX90’s equipment package. The electric SUV includes nine airbags and an advanced driver-assistance systems suite. These technologies are designed to support the driver with monitoring, alerts and assistance in certain driving situations.

As with any driver-assistance system, these features do not replace the driver’s responsibility to remain attentive and in control of the vehicle. Their operation can depend on road markings, visibility, traffic conditions and other external factors.

Volvo ES90: Expected Features and Battery Options

The Volvo ES90 is the brand’s all-electric luxury sedan and is expected to sit alongside the EX90 at the top of Volvo’s electric vehicle range. It has a sleek body profile and a design intended to prioritise aerodynamic efficiency, passenger comfort and long-distance driving.

Internationally, the ES90 is offered with different battery and motor configurations. Depending on the version, the global range includes a 92kWh battery with a single rear-mounted motor and a 106kWh battery with a dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup.

The model uses Volvo’s SPA2 architecture and 800-volt electrical system. Global versions support DC fast charging at up to 350kW. Published WLTP range figures vary by battery and powertrain configuration, reaching up to 696km for certain versions.

These international specifications should not be treated as confirmed Indian specifications. Volvo’s final India-specific battery, motor output, claimed range, equipment and variant details need to be verified through an official announcement.

Expected Price and Rivals

Before the launch, reports estimated that the EX90 could be priced in the premium luxury SUV segment, while the ES90 was expected to cost less than the flagship SUV. The EX90’s introductory price has now been announced at Rs 1.26 crore, ex-showroom. A confirmed Indian price for the ES90 was not available in the latest information reviewed.

The EX90 is expected to compete with premium electric SUVs such as the Kia EV9 and Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV. The ES90, if introduced in India with the expected positioning, could compete with luxury electric sedans such as the BMW i5.

The final comparison will depend on price, equipment, range, charging capability and after-sales support in India.

What Buyers Should Know

The Volvo EX90 is now a confirmed addition to India’s luxury electric SUV market, with a large battery, all-wheel drive, a six-seat cabin and a broad technology package. Volvo has also indicated an India launch plan for the ES90, but its final price and India-specific details should be confirmed before treating it as available for purchase.

Customers considering either model should compare the official ex-showroom price with the on-road cost, check charging access at home and at their destinations, and understand warranty and service coverage. They should also distinguish claimed WLTP range from the distance achievable in real-world Indian driving conditions.

The EX90 strengthens Volvo’s premium electric SUV offering, while the ES90 could broaden its appeal to customers seeking a luxury electric sedan. The next confirmed announcement from Volvo will clarify the ES90’s availability and the specifications offered to Indian buyers.

The cabin features a minimalist dashboard with a 14.5-inch portrait touchscreen infotainment system and a 9-inch digital driver display.
