VOLVO has unveiled its all-new ES90, the brand’s first-ever electric saloon that takes on competitors like the BMW i5.
The ES90 is notable for being the first electric saloon from the Swedish automaker – marking a shift away from its traditional SUV offerings.

With a range of up to 434 miles, it also positions itself as a major contender in the growing electric car market.
The ES90 is built on Volvo’s new SPA2 architecture and features 800-volt charging technology, a significant upgrade over previous models.
This allows for faster charging speeds, with the ability to add 186 miles of range in just 10 minutes.
The car comes with two battery options: an 88kWh version for the single-motor model, and a 102kWh battery for the twin-motor versions.

The range varies between 404 miles for the smaller battery and 434 miles for the larger one.
In terms of performance, the ES90 offers three powertrain configurations.
The base model comes with a 328bhp rear-wheel-drive setup, while the more powerful twin-motor versions deliver up to 671bhp.
The car can accelerate from 0-62mph in as little as 4.0 seconds for the high-performance variant, with a top speed of 112mph for all models.
The ES90 is also equipped with advanced computing technology, powered by dual Nvidia Orin processors.
This system is capable of handling 508 trillion operations per second, supporting Volvo’s latest active safety features and enabling future over-the-air updates.
The car’s software defined vehicle approach allows for continuous improvements to its systems, such as battery management and car sensors.
Designed for comfort, the ES90 features a dual-chamber air suspension and adaptive dampers, contributing to a smooth driving experience.
Volvo also claims that the cabin is the quietest ever produced by the brand, adding to the overall appeal of the new saloon.
With its advanced technology, impressive range, and sleek design, the ES90 represents a significant step forward for Volvo as it continues to expand its electric vehicle lineup.
The car’s high-tech features and long-range capabilities make it a serious rival to established competitors in the luxury electric vehicle market.
