An upgraded Volvo EX90 is now on sale for 2026 delivery from €99895, writes Brian Byrne. Faster charging and improved safety and driver support are features.
Thanks to a core computer upgrade, the car will come with connected safet alerts for slippy roads, hazards ahead, and accidents ahead. Emergency Stop Assist will bring the car to a controlled stop in its lane if the driver fails to respond to attention or hands-off warnings, for example due to sudden illness. Once the car is stationary, the new e-call feature will automatically connect the car to an emergency call centre linked to Volvo Cars.
A new 800V architecture reduces heat generation during charging, enabling faster charging speeds. The charging performance is further improved by in-house developed battery management software.
Volvo Car Ireland also introduces a new Single Motor, rear-wheel-drive version and Plus trim level. The new Plus trim level is available for both Single Motor and Twin Motor versions
