The flowing close-up footage of the hoodline, past the windscreen and into the trunklid is interesting. More promising than the initial veiled silhouette teaser.

Thsi is going to look very good...

And it's I believe on Volvo's SPA platform which means they can put ICE in it too.
They are reverting from their EV only by 2030 plans, and EX90 just got a facelift too.

EV only

I think you meant XC90, EX90 is EV only. This ES90 is made for China and will probably be EV only too.

Large Volvo's have amazing design. They only lack a proper grown up 6cylinder engine and RWD (for the non-SUVs).

Yeah, meant the XC90.

And what I wanted to say is that the ES90 is not made on an EV only platform despite being EV only as of right now.

2026 Volvo ES90 Will Have 800-Volt Platform, Roughly 369-Mile Range
Thanks to a higher operating voltage, Volvo claims its new electric sedan can charge from 10 to 80 percent in as little as 20 minutes.

Who asked for this? I think the car will be a bugy software disaster:

"The ES90 will be Volvo’s first vehicle to come with the Nvidia’s system-on-a-chip, enabling it to perform core functions at lightning fast speeds thanks to the computer’s abilities to perform 508 trillion operations per second (TOPS). This will come handy when managing functionalities such as “AI-based, state-of-the-art active safety features, car sensors and efficient battery management.”

Tesla was the first company to introduce the idea of a connected vehicle with updateable software that could improve over timne. Now, the rest of the industry is scrambling to catch up by introducing their own upgradable vehicles. Volvo’s EX90 was intended to be the first major effort, but the electric SUV was delayed by software troubles, and when it eventually arrived it lacked many of its promised features."

Volvo’s ES90 sedan will be built with a Nvidia supercomputer

Cars are becoming more high powered computers.

Sounds like they have no idea what they're doing and are just trying to seem cutting edge by talking about AI.

This will be a good looking car.

At least it has an actual back window unlike it's Polestar 5 sister.

I just stumbled upon this image:

Could this possibly be..."the real thing" ??

It seems to me it could be it. But I expected a more low slung car.

A new niche within a niche. The Sedossover.
The Polestar 2 is more semi-commanding over a conventional Volvo Sedan. This seems to take this further. Still surprising there is no Polestar wagon.

 

[tristatez28lt1]

Certainly looks like thats it! nice find!

 

[Serpens]

Congrats Volvo on another derivative design. This just looks like an overgrown Polestar 2. They need to advance their design language.

Wow that is the most.. uninspiring thing I've ever seen.

The midsize ICE segment has produced some of the best looking and proportioned cars.. the C8 A6, G30 5er, 213 E, the S90....

Yet none of them know how to design a good looking midsize EV sedan? The A6 e-Tron sucks, the i5 sucks, the EQE sucks, and now the ES90 joins them in the ranks.. looks so bland and tall.
