Scandinavian design

Volvo initially unveiled the all-new EM90 electric minivan in November 2023 after previewing it multiple times.

“It’s an age-old cliché, but there really is no place like home.”

Volvo CEO Jim Rowan stated following the EM90 debut

De momento solo está disponible en China, pero he aquí el monovolumen/minivan eléctrico de Volvo: el EM90.

Con una batería de 116 kWh y una potencia de unos 270 cv, está diseñado para que la experiencia vivida a bordo sea lo más cómodo que hayas vivido nunca…

Impressively, Volvo designed the EM90 to offer the most convenient and enjoyable driving experience. It offers superior comfort and flexibility for both business and pleasure.

The Swedish automaker refers to the EM90 as a “Scandinavian living room on wheels,” which includes luxury lounge seating. It also features rear cupholders, a fold-out table, massage functions, and a foldable 15.6-inch rear screen, among others. It also offers innovative software, such as Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Cockpit Platforms.

By simply pushing a button, the electric minivan transforms into a movie theatre, business boardroom, or even a bedroom, depending on the owner’s needs. 

Powertrain specs

The Volvo EM90 rides on its parent company’s SEA platform, like  Polestar 4, Lotus Eletre, and all ZEEKR EVs. Presented below are the key specifications of the new electric minivan:

Availability and pricing

Volvo plans to initially launch the EM90 in the Chinese market for 818,000 yuan ($115,000). 

The Swedish automaker has yet to announce if it will bring the electric minivan to other foreign markets in the future, depending on the model’s success in the Chinese market.

As of now, we know that the EM90 deliveries will kick off in March 2024 in China.

The Volvo EM90 will play a crucial role in the company’s goal to have electric vehicles account for 50% (around 600,000) of its vehicle sales by 2025. By the end of the decade, it aims to become an all-electric brand to stay competitive in the rapidly growing market.
