The 2026 Volvo EX90 is a three-row electric SUV in the large luxury segment, providing seating for six or seven passengers along with cargo space behind the third row. Vehicles in similar consideration include the Tesla Model X, BMW iX, and Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV. The 2026 model year introduces updates to the EX90, such as a single-motor rear-wheel-drive powertrain option, an electrical architecture upgrade, and higher output in all-wheel-drive configurations. The rear-wheel-drive version delivers 329 horsepower with an EPA-estimated range of up to 291 miles. All-wheel-drive variants provide 449 horsepower or 670 horsepower in the performance trim.

The EX90 uses Volvo's Google built-in infotainment system displayed on a 14.5-inch center touchscreen, which incorporates Google Maps with charger locations, Google Assistant voice control, Google Play app access, and wireless Apple CarPlay. For 2026, it adopts an 800-volt system that supports charging from 10 to 80 percent in about 22 minutes at compatible fast-charging stations. It includes dual NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Orin processors to handle interfaces and features like Pilot Assist. The Volvo Cars app enables remote preconditioning, charging scheduling, digital key sharing, and notifications. Over-the-air software updates occur multiple times per year, accompanied by a digital services package with unlimited Google data for the first four years.
