Volvo Cars Korea announced that its all-electric flagship model, the 'Volvo ES90', has received certification for a driving range of 520 km on a single charge (based on twin motor configuration) and will commence full-scale deliveries starting in October.

Despite being marketed as a flagship, it boasts formidable price competitiveness, priced approximately 50 million won lower than the European market. Most notably, it combines a length exceeding 5 meters with the practicality of a fastback and the versatility of an SUV.

According to the Ministry of Climate, Energy and Environment's vehicle emissions and noise certification system (KENCIS), the ES90 twin motor equipped with 106kWh all-wheel drive (AWD) has been certified for a combined driving range of 520 km at room temperature (548 km in urban areas, 486 km on highways). This represents the longest range among comparable imported premium sediments currently available in Korea, allowing drivers to travel from Seoul to Busan and still have an additional 120 km of range remaining. It also secures a combined driving range of 469 km (451 km urban, 491 km highway) even in low-temperature environments.

The ES90 is the first Volvo model to adopt an 800V high-voltage system and new battery management software. When using a 350 kW fast charger, it can secure a driving range of 300 km in just 10 minutes, and charging from 10% to 80% is possible in only 22 minutes. According to the 2026 electric vehicle subsidy guidelines, it is expected that buyers in Seoul could receive subsidies ranging up to 2.13 million won (for Single Motor ER) to 2.2 million won (for Twin Motor). Consequently, with applicable environmental tax benefits, purchase prices start from 70.81 million won depending on the trim level. Volvo Cars Korea plans to begin full-scale deliveries starting in October, beginning with the twin motor model following completion of domestic certification.
