The 2025 Volvo EX90 is a delightful three-row electric SUV, but arrives with some missing tech features.
EVs and tech have become intertwined. That’s great for the people who want cars to act like four-wheeled smartphones, which seem to be the focus of many auto-industry product planning decisions, but not for those who want transportation. That’s abundantly clear from the development saga of the 2025 Volvo EX90.
Sitting under harsh stage lights at its reveal in Sweden, the EX90 looked like just another SUV, effectively a refresh of the Volvo XC90. But driving around in the California sun, the effect is more dramatic. The EX90 still has the visual weight of a true SUV, but its sucked-in body sides and creased edges give it a tauter appearance that nicely evolves Volvo’s signature look.
Tech, infotainment, and driver assist The standard duo of screens includes a 9.0-inch digital instrument cluster and 14.5-inch touchscreen. The EX90 uses an Android-based infotainment system like other recent Volvo models, with features like Google Maps and Google Assistant that make it feel like you have built-in Android Auto. Volvo plans to include wireless Apple CarPlay, but it told customers earlier this year that this feature would not be enabled at delivery.
Volvo also hopes to improve the EX90’s driver aids with an industry-first lidar unit — a sensor normally used on the self-driving car prototypes various companies are testing. Supplied by Luminar and mounted just above the windshield, the lidar unit is designed to supplement the EX90’s cameras and radar, providing better vision in darkness or direct sunlight. For now, though, it’s just decoration until Volvo decides to do something with the data it collects.
