The fully electric New Volvo EX90 SUV has achieved the maximum five-star rating in the latest round of Euro NCAP safety tests, placing it among this year’s top performers. Euro NCAP is Europe’s leading independent safety assessment programme, helping buyers understand exactly how well vehicles protect occupants. The New Volvo EX90, which offers seating for up to seven, scored exceptionally high in both adult and child occupant protection.
“Volvo Cars has long been a pioneer in automotive safety, and the EX90 is the latest example of that leadership. It builds on more than 55 years of real-world crash research, informing how we design our cars for traffic situations people face every day – not just controlled test environments. This Euro NCAP result shows that our commitment to real-world protection translates into top performance in independent safety tests.”
- Åsa Haglund, Head of Volvo Cars Safety Centre
Volvo Cars’ approach to safety is built on decades of research, drawing on data from more than 50,000 real-life accidents involving over 80,000 people. This extensive knowledge, combined with advanced physical and virtual testing, underpins the company’s continuous development of new safety innovations. It also informs the Volvo Cars Safety Standard, an internal benchmark that goes beyond formal regulatory requirements.
Smart, connected and fully electric, the New Volvo EX90 is designed around sophisticated protective and preventive technologies. Powered by core computing and an array of sensors, cameras and radars, it can interpret its surroundings, process real-time data and adapt its responses. Over-the-air software updates allow Volvo to refine and enhance safety features throughout the vehicle’s lifetime.
The New Volvo EX90 also features Volvo’s Safe Space Technology, a bespoke suite of systems that work together to help protect those inside and around the car. In the event of a collision, its advanced structural design and state-of-the-art restraint systems are engineered specifically for the New EX90 to maximise occupant protection.
Standout innovations include the award-winning driver understanding system, capable of detecting distraction, fatigue or impairment using real-time sensing. Full-cabin occupant sensing offers an added layer of protection, with interior radars able to detect even the smallest movements to help prevent anyone being left behind. These achievements add to the EX90’s growing list of accolades, including the 2024 World Luxury Car title.
