Volvo EX90 Comparisons

Luxury meets affordability in the 2024 Volvo EX90 with a starting price under $80,000, an attractive number for the luxury electric SUV segment. Comparatively, the BMW iX comes with a hefty price tag starting around $85,000, the Rivian R1S at approximately $70,000, and the Mercedes-Benz EQS way higher, around $96,000. While each vehicle offers compelling qualities, none delivers the luxury and electric efficiency level of the Volvo EX90 at a similar price point.

Beneath the sleek silhouette of the Volvo EX90 lies a potent powertrain. Twin electric motors provide an impressive output of 496 horsepower and an acceleration time from 0-60 mph of 4.7 seconds. By contrast, the BMW iX manages 500 horsepower, the Mercedes EQS offers 516 horsepower, and the Rivian R1S leads with 750 horsepower. Yet, the numbers tell only half the story. The Volvo EX90 model's agile handling and responsive steering, coupled with the unique characteristic of instant torque from electric motors, translates to an exhilarating driving experience.

For electric range, the new Volvo EX90 111-kWh battery pack provides up to 300 miles on a single charge, balancing great performance and efficiency. The batteries in the BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Rivian models offer a similar range.

Consistent with its long reputation for passenger safety, the Volvo EX90 comes equipped with Safe Space Technology. The comprehensive suite includes driver monitoring, curve speed control, lane change assistance, and emergency braking. An enhanced driver assistance system, Pilot Assist, offers further peace of mind. In contrast, the BMW iX, Mercedes-Benz EQS, and Rivian R1S all have good safety features, but the Volvo brand's relentless pursuit of safety innovation gives the Volvo EX90 a distinctive advantage.
