But the Swedish Marque continues to drop enticing smaller as we head towards the full reveal, including the fact that it can control 700 km of reach on a single charge-it’s 435 miles for Imperial Unit fans.
This is thanks to a huge 111KWH battery pack and 800V electric architecture borrowed from the EX90 SUV, which is not only more efficient during operation but can also help with charging with speeds of up to 350 kW.
Volvo says that if you can find the appropriate fast charger, you can add 300 km (186 miles) in the time it takes to use the toilet and order a coffee or 10 minutes, in other words.
When developing the ES90, Volvo introduced lighter e-motor and other components to reduce the overall weight, as well as create the latest internal battery management software that provides a more “robust charging experience” according to the Swedish brand.
Utilization of the brains behind Breathe Battery Technologies, a company Volvo invested last year, the carmaker has been able to shave the time it takes to charge the ES90’s batteries from 10 to 80% by as much as 30 percent, down to just 20 minutes from the fastest chargers.
ES90 also includes lots of recycled materials to reduce its carbon footprint, including the fact that 29 percent of all aluminum and 18 percent of all steel used in the ES90 are recycled, while the ES90 also contains 16 percent recycled polymers and bio -based materials .
