FollowA sneak peek of Volvo’s upcoming flagship electric SUV, EX90, which will be unveiled on November 9, has been released. The company has been teasing the vehicle over the past several weeks while demonstrating the amenities and technologies that would be offered with the SUV. Volvo gave some hints about the EV's aesthetics and teased the external appearance before its formal introduction.

The seven-seat SUV is believed to have a 0.29 drag coefficient to assist maximise its driving range. Close-up teaser images demonstrate flat door handles and a rounded front end, which are the keys to Volvo's low drag coefficient (cd).

The EX90 will monitor the surroundings around the car using eight cameras, five radars, and sixteen ultrasonic sensors. The Volvo SUV's interior cameras and sensors will be focused on both the driver and the passengers, and it will use radar to find sleeping youngsters and animals that have been left inside the SUV and alert the driver as needed.
The SUV appears to be rounded and fairly elegant from the front, with an upright posture that extends to the back, despite the teaser's considerable blurriness. Both the C-shaped tail lights adapted from the S90 sedan and the LED headlamp with DRL patterns are particularly distinct.
