2026 Volvo EX90 Twin Motor

"This is high! And I have the same car. Nearly all of the software issues on mine were fixed after the VCU upgrade. With the exception that it often thinks my heavy bookbag in The back seat is a person and an occasional issue with Spotify that is in their app, Not Volvo. It's the first year of a new model, every single car maker has issues the first year that they need to work out. Volvo has done well with correcting them. They all occured with the previous CEO. The old one is now back in place and literally everything has improved. Ps: they drive amazing! Get cpo."

"The two cars have entirely different customer bases. The R1S is targeting 30 year old Patagonia buyers, the Volvo is targeting old money and suburban soccer moms. So yeah, that is kinda the entire point. The EX90 is classy, the R1S is “flashy” inside (both good and bad). I will say that I think the Volvo will age better. The EX60 is a huge jump in design over the EX90 and is in your range but that is only two rows. You’ll probably be surprised by the Ioniq 9."

Good deal, average, or still room to push?"

"I drove a Rivian R1S and a Volvo EX90 Both 3rd row EV’s with similar range. The Rivian Ruined me- the attention to detail, the quality feel, hands free driving, the speed, Storage Space, thoughtfulness of each area. I nearly expected the Volvo to have cigarette ash trays it felt so dated. I don’t know if it was the Swedish design or what but it felt dated inside. I still think the volvo look is really nice but Rivian won my heart. only issue is both of those cars were about 90k and I’m trying to be in the 60k world… so need to go smaller, ICE, or wait for the EV Highlander’s and Subarus Getaway."

"I would really really advise you to fully investigate if Volvo has fixed all the issues with the software of the EX90. I have spoken many owners of the EX90 and they have had so many issues since the launch here in the Netherlands that they would not recommend it to buy one."

"EV9 vs the Volvo EX90 Test drove the Kia Ev9 and the EX90 back to back. In my market they are currently priced almost identically so I presumed the EX90 would walk all over the EV9. Here's my first impressions. \\- Seat comfort: Tie. Volvo with its Nordico Seats feel firmer than the EV9 (GT Line seats). Both are good but the EV9 seems more flexible. \\- Buttons (or lack thereof): The EX90 infuriates me with having EVERYTHING on the center infotainment screen. WHO asked for the glove box button, climate controls, cruise control distance adjustment, seat heat/ventilation, to be on a tablet? I hoped I would deal with it but it's a near deal breaker for me. \\- The EX90 wins in terms of interior materials but in some areas the "premium" stuff only goes skin deep. The center console feels cheap and the EV9 has a more practical interior space (by far in my opinion). Dig around the cabin of the EX90 and you'll find cheap surfaces or things that look nice but once you look closer you can tell they're trying to save cost. \\- EX90 has a much more sophisticated suspension setup and you can tell. It feels more comfortable over rougher roads and potholes. \\- EX90 has better headlamps. The EV9 is not far behind in general but the "matrix" feature is more rudimentary with lower resolution. \\- EX90 sound system is better. Even the Bose stereo (arguably) \\- The reversing camera on the EX90 is atrocious. Low frame rate and overall poor video quality. It's got a significant fishbowl effect too. The EV9 backup camera is much more responsive and looks significantly better. \\-Even in a brand new 2026 vehicle, the infotainment in the EX90 felt a bit unfinished and buggy. The outside air quality sensor is seemingly broken for example. \\- The EV9 is overall much more practical. Larger boot space, more interior space. V2L, power socket in the back, integrated sunshade, all three rows are electrically adjustable. Heating and cooling in the second row, etc. Overall: The EX90 is more premium, but less practical, borderline infuriating to operate and I'm concerned about the reliability of all the tech. I presume the general controls get easier as you build up muscle memory with the infotainment display but its a trend in the Automotive Industry I hope dies a swift and decisive death along with piano black plastic. I feel both are cost cutting disguised as minimalism. I'd love to hear from EV9 owners if you disagree with my observations. The two cars might be similar on paper in some regards but they feel very different. Ideally I would combine the two!"

"One thing to consider is the dealerships and staff working there. I have an EV9 in the Orlando area and our Kia dealerships are run down and the staff fits what you would expect. Never owned a Volvo but its worth mentioning if you need to go back and get stuff worked on."
