Volvo has launched the all-electric EX90 luxury SUV in India, bolstering the Swedish automaker’s presence in the prime electric vehicle segment. The flagship electric SUV features advanced safety technology, a spacious six-seat cabin and a claimed WLTP driving range of up to 625 km. The EX90 is Volvo’s first software-defined vehicle to be brought to India, and deliveries of the Volvo EX90 are set for January 2027. The company has announced that the ES90 will be its next new model introduction for the Indian market.
Volvo has described the EX90 as its “safest Volvo ever”, citing the vehicle’s advanced sensors, radar systems and software capabilities to monitor the vehicle’s surroundings and support the driver. Volvo has long focused on occupant protection, and the EX90’s software-defined architecture is another example of the brand’s commitment to its occupants’ safety. Software-driven technology will be a key enabler in Volvo’s strategy of managing vehicle functionality and supporting the evolution of its technology features.
The Volvo EX90 is also the brand’s focus on passenger comfort and personal space through its six-seat configuration. The EX90’s cabin layout aims to provide a more individualised seating experience, catering to luxury buyers who seek comfort and convenience. Volvo Car India leadership has spoken of the value of offering customers a vehicle with the right space and seating arrangement for their needs. The EX90’s larger SUV size and premium positioning are expected to satisfy those expectations, bringing together luxury, safety and electric mobility.
The Volvo EX90 has a claimed range of up to 625 km on a full charge, according to the WLTP cycle. This range makes it a possible option for customers who are interested in a premium electric SUV that can meet both everyday commuting and long-distance travel needs. However, the range is dependent on driving conditions, speed, the weather and the use of features such as climate control. India-specific battery, charging and equipment details will be key considerations for buyers as the company prepares for customer deliveries.
Volvo has confirmed that EX90 deliveries in India will begin in January 2027. The company is also set to expand its flagship 90 series portfolio with the all-electric ES90, which will be its next new model introduction in India. However, Volvo ES90 India launch date has not yet been revealed. The company is expected to unveil its launch timeline at a later stage, so its exact arrival in the Indian market is unconfirmed.
The ES90 will extend Volvo’s premium electric vehicle offering beyond SUVs, providing the brand with another electric vehicle in the luxury EV segment. Its planned introduction also suggests that Volvo is aiming to build a broader electric vehicle portfolio in India rather than relying solely on its SUV lineup. Details of the ES90’s India-specific specifications, features, pricing and availability are awaited.
Volvo is pushing for a long-term strategy to bolster its presence in India’s luxury car market, where German manufacturers remain prime competitors. The company is concentrating on its product portfolio, customer experience and brand desirability, with sales volumes and market share being essential long-term objectives for the company. Volvo Car India leadership has spoken of the approach as a marathon, rather than a sprint, and the value of building a strong foundation for sustainable growth.
With the EX90 and the upcoming ES90, Volvo is looking to bolster its presence in India’s evolving luxury electric vehicle market. The EX90 has a claimed 625 km WLTP driving range, a six-seat cabin and advanced safety technology, and deliveries are set for January 2027. The ES90 will be Volvo’s next planned model introduction for India, but its launch date is yet to be revealed.
