Volvo officially announced in September that the pure electric version of the new generation of large-scale facelifted XC90, that is, EX90, will be officially launched on November 9. Recently, the technical details of advanced driving assistance systems such as LiDAR, which will be used by the new car will be continuously released. In the latest wave of trailers, the interior layout of EX90 is generously presented to Volvo fans around the world! But how does it look almost exactly the same as the interior design of Polestar 3?
From the official preview picture, it can be seen that the interior style of EX90 is inherited from the Recharge concept car released by Volvo in 2021. It has a new steering wheel design and an LCD instrument with a size that is significantly smaller than the current Volvo. However, the screen of the central control Google car is obviously much larger than the current 9-inch screen of the XC90. But I believe that sharp-eyed friends will find that the layout of EX90 is basically the same as that of Polestar 3! The Polestar 3's Google car screen reaches 14.5 inches, and perhaps Volvo's pure electric flagship SUV will follow suit. The reason why
EX90 is similar to Polestar 3's interior layout is mainly because both cars are built using a new generation of SPA modular platform. In the future, Poelstar 3 will also be manufactured using Volvo's factory in North Carolina, USA. Therefore, the LiDAR light sensor and higher-level autonomous driving assistance technology seen on the EX90 will also appear on the Polestar 3. Similarly, it can be expected that the battery capacity and endurance of the EX90 are expected to be set according to the 111kWh and 610 kilometers (WLTP) of the Polestar 3, and the power output of the high-end EX90 is also expected to reach the level of 483 horsepower/840N·m torque.
In addition, in order to emphasize environmental protection and sustainability, Volvo said that EX90 will use 50 kilograms of recycled plastic and plant synthetic raw materials to create the interior. In fact, you will not see animal leather appearing in the next Volvo new car. The EX90 will also have convenient technologies such as in-car radar to prevent passengers from being "forgotten" in the car, as well as bi-directional charging that can charge other electric vehicles, so that the new car will not only continue to write a new benchmark for safety performance, but will also give car owners more different "electricity" methods in the pure electric generation.
