The Volvo ES90 Twin Motor Performance alongside these alternatives:
Performance
The Volvo ES90 Twin Motor Performance delivers a maximum power of 500 kW (680 hp / 671 bhp) and a total torque of 870 Nm (642 lb-ft). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 4.0 seconds and reaches a top speed of 180 km/h (112 mph).
Battery, Range, and Charging
The battery has a gross capacity of 106.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 102.0 kWh, with a 4.0 kWh buffer (3.8%) for battery protection. It operates at a nominal voltage of 800 volts. The high voltage supports faster DC charging.
This Lithium-Ion battery utilizes NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt) technology.
According to the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) standard, the vehicle's range is 679 km (422 miles), with an energy consumption rate of 15.0 kWh/100 km (3 mi/kWh).
For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.
The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 350 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 55 minutes, while a typical 10% to 80% charge takes about 21 minutes with an average charging speed of 202 kW.
Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 6% to 62%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 198 kW, with each charging session taking about 17 minutes and 18 seconds.
This places the Volvo ES90 Twin Motor Performance among the fastest-charging EVs available.
Onboard Charger
The standard onboard charger supports up to 11 kW for Level 1 and Level 2 AC charging, allowing a full 0–100% charge in about 9 hours and 16 minutes with a standard home setup.
Charge Port
The charge port is located on the left rear side, making it easy to use charge stations where you need to back up into the charger.
Connector types vary by market: this model uses CCS Combo 1 in North America and CCS Combo 2 in Europe. For complete specifications for all markets, refer to the full specifications.
Bidirectional Charging
This model supports V2H (Vehicle to Home) functionality, allowing the car to serve as a backup power source for your home.
Note that V2H requires specialized equipment in your home.
Drivetrain

The front discs measure 400 mm, while the rear discs are 390 mm.
Regenerative Braking
The regenerative braking system in this model offers several modes. The most efficient option is the Automatic Regeneration Mode, where the vehicle coasts when possible and employs regenerative braking to reduce speed as needed.
Manual regeneration is another mode, where regenerative braking is controlled by pressing the brake pedal. The brake system blends in physical brakes only when necessary.
Another option is the Regen on Accelerator Pedal mode where regenerative braking is activated when the driver eases off the accelerator pedal. This system allows the vehicle to slow down and recover energy without the driver needing to press the brake pedal, a feature often referred to as one-pedal driving.
Drivers can also adjust the regenerative braking strength when lifting off the accelerator, choosing between three levels.
The maximum regenerative braking power is 150 kW.

Soft close is standard on the side doors.
The liftgate is electric-powered and has a kick-sensor as standard.
