Volvo<\/a> worked with Google and Luminar (among others) to make the all-electric seven-seater SUV \u201cthe smartest vehicle yet\u201d that bears the Volvo name, as well as getting the Swedish carmaker into \u201ca new era for safety.\u201d<\/p>\n The 2024 EX90 is fitted with a long-range lidar, five radars, eight cameras, and 16 ultrasonic sensors which are designed to react when the driver isn\u2019t paying attention to the road as he should be. The lidar, made by Luminar, is standard on all EX90s and can detect small objects \u201capproximately two football fields ahead in day or night, and even at highway speed,\u201d according to Volvo.<\/p>\n There\u2019s also a so-called driver understanding system<\/em>, which consists of a capacitive steering wheel and two cameras that constantly monitor the driver to check if he\u2019s distracted or sleepy, putting the other safety systems on guard if needed.<\/p>\n 14<\/span> Photos<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n The car comes as standard with a 14.5-inch center touchscreen that has Google apps and services included, such as Google Assistant for hands-free commands and Google Maps for navigation. For Apple users, the EX90 will also offer wireless Apple CarPlay.<\/p>\n Under the skin, Volvo\u2019s all-new electric SUV is virtually identical to the Polestar 3<\/a>, using the same pair of synchronous permanent magnet motors and the same 111 kWh battery pack that has a usable capacity of 107 kWh.<\/p>\n The company hasn\u2019t released official details about the EPA-rated range, but when we attended the global reveal in Europe<\/a>, we learned that the EX90 has an estimated range of 372 miles (600 kilometers) on a single charge. For reference, the Polestar 3 with the same battery and motors is EPA rated at 270 miles, so expect Volvo\u2019s model to be somewhere in between when the official EPA rating is published.<\/p>\n![\"2024](\"https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/static\/16x9-tr.png\")
