We’ve just started building our new, fully electric #VolvoEX90 SUV at our factory outside of Charleston, South Carolina – so it’s safe to say we’re in a celebratory mood this week!
Our new flagship SUV is based on our next generation, born-electric EV technology base and represents a paradigm shift for our company.
Not only does the EX90 expand our portfolio of fully electric cars, but it’s also the first Volvo car powered by core computing technology – a technology that enables a new era of safety for our cars. It’s designed to be the safest Volvo car to date, with cutting-edge passive and active safety technology and software informed by a broad suite of sensors.
We produce the EX90 at our plant in Charleston, South Carolina. In recent years, we have made extensive investments in the facility to renew and expand, and it also has a state-of-the-art battery pack production line.
So, our US plant is well-prepared to take on this mission. It reflects our long-term commitment to South Carolina, and the United States, where Volvo Cars has operated for almost 70 years through a robust network of 281 dealerships across 47 states.
The first customer deliveries of the EX90 are scheduled for the second half of this year.
