Exploring the tech features of the Volvo EX90

[Volda]

I recently explored the tech intro for the EX90, and it felt more like a computer than a car. One feature I liked was the mechanical override for the headlight opening, accessible under the hood, which reminded me of older Volvos' thoughtful designs.

The key fob is now buttonless and rechargeable, moving toward phone or NFC card use. There's also 12V access under the front for emergency charging, which I think should’ve been standard long ago.

The TCAM antenna implies DTPMS, though I’m not a fan. I was also intrigued by the EFAD’s coolant temperature limit of 158°F, which reduces performance, but it’s still unclear how much. AWD versions disable ERAD for better range with a torque-vectoring dual wet clutch.

At least it has a cooling system.

Not so many are, haha!

True! With all that tech packed inside, I’d be more worried if it didn’t have its own A/C

I also noticed the shift toward tech-heavy features in the EX90, which felt like a leap into the future. The mechanical headlight override really took me back to those classic Volvo touches, and I’m excited to see how the phone/NFC fob integration plays out.

The tech is impressive, but it’s the classic Volvo touches like the headlight override that really stand out.
