KUALA LUMPUR, 17 March 2025 – Volvo Car Malaysia is accepting bookings for the Volvo EX90 and the new XC90, two seven-seater flagship SUVs that are slated to join its electrified model range.
Malaysia is one of the first Asia Pacific markets to introduce the Volvo EX90 after Thailand’s launch last year. For the local market, retail prices for both models are expected to be around the RM450,000 mark with further details of trim level and vehicle specifications to be announced.
The Volvo EX90 is Volvo’s first fully electric, seven-seater model for global markets. It is Volvo’s top-range SUV, breaking new ground with core compute architecture, the most advanced safety technologies inside and outside the car, and is software-driven to improve its capabilities even further throughout ownership.
The Volvo EX90 is also a luxurious yet capable fully electric car with more than 600km of electric range, a century sprint of less than five seconds, Bowers & Wilkins High Fidelity audio, and true seven-seater comfort with powered folding seats to expand luggage space at a touch of a button.
Its plug-in hybrid counterpart – the new XC90 – is a modern icon with a lineage stemming from the marque’s very first SUV, and its proven practicality has made the XC90 a perennially popular model. The new XC90 is the first major facelift since the current generation was introduced 10 years ago and brings a new look and user interface that positions it closer to its fully electric sibling.
Both the Volvo EX90 and new XC90 are electrified cars, defined by Volvo Cars as models with a charging cable. The offering and adoption of electrified models are important for the company as an integral part of its sustainability ambitions and goal of net zero emissions across global operations by 2040.
Chris Wailes, Managing Director of Volvo Car Malaysia commented, “With the imminent introduction of the Volvo EX90 and new XC90 for Malaysia, we are making good progress towards our global ambitions of 90 to 100 percent electrified car sales before the end of the decade. Last year, our BEV and PHEV models already made up more than 80 percent of our sales.”
“The EX90 is a compelling addition to our current BEV portfolio of compact SUVs as it represents an option for owners who require more space, luxury, comfort and technology in a powerful, fully electric package. The EX90 complements the new, facelifted XC90 as the best of Volvo with our unwavering focus on safety to give you the freedom to move,” Wailes added.
