Upcoming Volvo ES90 promises small carbon footprint

The new fully electric Volvo ES90, which starts production in Q3 2025, will be produced with climate-neutral energy and is designed with sustainability in mind.

With a European energy mix, the ES90's carbon footprint is approximately 50% lower than the mild hybrid variant of the Volvo S90, and 30% lower than a plug-in hybrid S90. It is also lower than the EX40 and EC40. This means the ES90 has one of the lowest carbon footprints of any Volvo car to date.

In addition to being a fully electric car with zero tailpipe emissions, the ES90 has been designed with a holistic approach towards sustainability. For example, it is the first Volvo car equipped with the company's new 800V electric system. This creates benefits in terms of charging and energy efficiency, thanks to lighter components that reduce the car's overall weight.

The ES90 is built with approximately 29% recycled aluminium, 18% recycled steel, as well as 16% recycled polymers, and bio-based materials such as real FSC-certified wood in the cabin. Inside, customers can pick a Nordico upholstery option made from recycled material such as PET bottles and bio-attributed material.

The Volvo ES90 is available for order now in Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the U.K., with other markets to be added later this year and in 2026.
