00:00Volvo, that Swedish brand we've always associated with safety and cars with the aerodynamics of a brick,

00:07has decided that the future isn't just electric, it's a statement.

00:11They looked at the traditional luxury sedan and thought, you know what this needs? An identity crisis.

00:17And so the Volvo ES90 was born, a car that represents the end of an era,

00:22a definitive farewell to combustion engines, and a hello to a new way of understanding luxury on wheels.

00:30Forget everything you thought you knew.

00:33Built on the robust SPA2 platform, the same as the behemoth EX90,

00:38the ES90 isn't just an electric successor to the S90, it's an entirely different creature.

00:44It has the elegance of a sedan, the silhouette of a fastback, and a ground clearance that flirts with that of an SUV.

00:51It's the kind of car that seems undecided about what it wants to be in life,

00:55but somehow it absolutely nails this existential confusion.

01:00The result is an imposing presence, nearly 5 meters long with a generous 3.10 meter wheelbase,

01:07ensuring that the interior space is simply obscene.

01:10The heart of this machine, or lack thereof if you're a combustion purist,

01:15is its 800 volt electric architecture.

01:18In practice, this means charging stops are ridiculously short.

01:21We're talking about going from 10% to 80% battery in about 20 minutes on a powerful charger.

01:28Enough time to grab a mediocre roadside coffee and wonder why you spent so much money on a car that silently judges you.

01:35Volvo unceremoniously buried its combustion in hybrid engines, and this is the future they present to us.

01:41The ES90 lineup has been structured to please everyone, provided they have a healthy bank account.

01:47The entry-level version, the single-motor extended range, offers a rear motor with 333 horsepower and a range of up to 650 kilometers.

01:57It's the rational choice, for those who want to travel far without major worries.

02:01Just above it, the twin motor adds all-wheel drive and boosts power to 449 horsepower.

02:08It's the middle ground, for those who want a bit more spice and security.

02:12And at the top, the damn twin motor performance with its 680 horsepower and 870 newton meters of torque,

02:19capable of going from 0 to 104 seconds.

02:22A family sedan that accelerates like a supercar.

02:26What kind of world is this?

02:27Of course, all of them come with Volvo's famous electronic leash, limiting the top speed to 180 kilometers per hour.

02:36A decision that, according to the brand, is for safety.

02:39For us, it's proved that the suites have a peculiar sense of humor, giving you a cannon in your hands,

02:44but ensuring you can't use it to truly have fun on a German Autobahn.

02:48The vehicle's weight isn't negligible either, exceeding 2,500 kilograms.

02:53It's a Swedish war tank, disguised with elegant lines and sustainable materials.

02:59The onboard technology is a separate chapter.

03:02Volvo calls it safe space technology, which is a cute name for one of the most advanced surveillance systems ever put in a car.

03:09With a LiDAR sensor on the roof, which looks like a high-tech lump, plus 5 radars, 7 cameras, and 12 ultrasonic sensors,

03:19the ES90 sees the world around it with frightening precision.

03:23It's one step away from becoming sentient and deciding that the biggest safety risk is in fact the idiot behind the wheel.

03:29The cabin, with its giant screens running a native Google system and the Bowers and Wilkins sound system,

03:37is a sanctuary of luxury to keep you calm while the car prepares to take over.

03:42When we pit it against its rivals, things get interesting.

03:45Compared to the Tesla Model S, the Volvo loses in raw acceleration and software efficiency,

03:51but wins hands-down in build quality, interior finish, and especially charging speed thanks to its 800-volt architecture.

03:59Against the Mercedes-Benz EQE, the battle is for luxury and comfort,

04:05but the Volvo stands out for its active safety technology with standard LiDAR,

04:10something the Germans still treat as an expensive option.

04:13Ultimately, the Volvo ES90 isn't for everyone.

04:17It's expensive, heavy, and has an electronic nanny that limits its speed.

04:21But on the other hand, it redefines the safety standard,

04:25offers a charging solution that makes life with an EV genuinely practical

04:29and delivers a level of luxury and interior space that humbles many competitors.

04:34It's a complex car full of contradictions and with a strong personality.

04:39It's an engineering marvel for those who appreciate the details,

04:43the substance, and a touch of Swedish irony.
