Volvo EX90 India Launch Confirmed for 18 August 2026

Volvo has announced that the Volvo EX90 is set to be launched in India. This is a fully electric SUV that offers the features of a seating capacity for seven persons, the 111 kWh battery pack, and indeed, a revolutionary technical enhancement in the form of the highly advanced LIDAR system, which is the first of its type to be installed in a Volvo vehicle.

India Launch Timeline

The electric SUV was launched during the 2026 Indonesia Motor Show and will be available for sale in India soon. While spy images and first demonstrations show that the electric SUV closely resembles the global model, the specifics of the Indian version and its price remain to be announced.

• Global reveal showcased at the 2026 Indonesia Motor Show
• India launch officially confirmed for August 2026
• Will join the EX30 and EC40 in Volvo India's electric lineup
• Positioned as Volvo's new electric flagship, above the existing XC90

Battery and Performance Specifications

The cabin of the car features an 111 kWh battery pack connected to an all-wheel-drive twin-motor system. In performance mode, the EX90 is able to deliver a total of 517bhp and 910Nm of power, putting it among the strongest electric SUVs being launched in India.

Charging Capabilities and Bi-Directional Tech

Most notable aspect of the EX90 apart from its efficiency is its quick charging capability. The SUV takes less than 30 minutes to get from 10% to 80%, which is remarkably swift for a car with such a large battery.

Also outstanding is the bi-directional charging option that is available with the car and allows it to supply power to other devices including the electric car. Its availability in electric vehicles sold in India gives Volvo the technology advantage.

Safety Technology and Lidar Sensor Suite

While those enthusiasts going after sheer driving excitement may prefer performance-driven imports, the EX90 places emphasis on practicality and technology-driven safety. The SUV features an advanced sensor suite made up of cameras, radars, and for the first time ever in a Volvo, a lidar system.

The lidar system is able to spot tiny objects from a great distance, not only when the car is traveling fast, but even at nighttime, thus showing technological advancement in terms of perception capabilities of a car compared to only camera- and radar-based systems.

Interior and Cabin Technology

Step inside, and you'll find that the technology used continues to be present in the EX90. Google built-in powers a 14.5-inch touchscreen, providing native app use as well as seamless functioning of voice commands in the cabin.

A Bowers & Wilkins system takes care of the sound of the car, which has Dolby Atmos technology and speakers installed in the headrests, thereby ensuring an excellent audio experience throughout the three seating rows.

Conclusion

The upcoming Volvo EX90 joins the luxury electric vehicle market in India with its top-notch performance, a huge 111kWh battery, and lidar technology that no other EV has ever had. The launch date has been locked for August 2026, and the pricing and variants will be revealed in due time.
