As a car that signifies the start of a new era for Volvo Cars, the fully electric Volvo EX90 is your perfect companion for a more sustainable family lifestyle. Charging your car was never easier due to a variety of smart technologies and services.

With the public charging experience fully integrated in the Volvo Cars app, you can choose from hundreds of thousands of public charging points around the globe, pay for your charging and keep track of charging progress in one, easy-to-use interface. Meanwhile, you can check the real-time availability of charging points via Google Maps in the centre screen of the infotainment system.

The Volvo EX90 will support Plug and Charge. Once available, this means you can simply plug your car into a public charger that supports this technology and it will start charging automatically, with payment taken care of as well.

We’re also constantly extending the scope of our charging offer by adding more fast-charging networks to our ecosystem of connected public charging, allowing drivers of electric Volvo cars to charge conveniently at attractive rates.

The Volvo Cars app is also the starting point for our home energy management offer, which allows you to reduce your CO2 emissions, save money and lower your impact on the environment.

Initially available in selected markets in the future, our home energy management offer includes a bi-directional wall box and a energy management system that helps you monitor and optimise your household’s energy consumption. Our experts will oversee the entire installation, making sure everything is ready for when your car arrives.

Through the smart charging feature coming to the Volvo Cars app, you can charge your Volvo EX90 at the best available time from a sustainability and family economy perspective. Now imagine you could use that energy later, perhaps during peak times when prices are higher and the energy mix less sustainable.

This is because the Volvo EX90 is our first car with all the necessary hardware to enable bi-directional charging. It’s a technology whereby you can use your car battery as an extra energy supply, for example to power your home, other electric devices or another electric Volvo car. We plan to make bi-directional charging available in the future, starting with selected markets.
