“With the imminent introduction of the Volvo EX90 and new XC90 for Malaysia, we are making good progress towards our global ambitions of 90 to 100 percent electrified car sales before the end of the decade, Last year, our BEW and PHEC models already made up more than 80 percent of our sales.” said Christ Wailes, Managing Director of Volvo Car Malaysia. 

He then added “The EX90 is a compelling addition to our current BEW portfolio of compact SUVs as it represents an option for owners who require more space, luxury, comfort and technology in a powerful, fully electric package. The EX90 complements the new facelifted XC90 as the best of Volvo with our unwavering focus on safety to give you the freedom to move,”.

With the current generation of XC90 coming to its 10th year of production, do you think Volvo has what it takes to compete with its luxury rivals with these updates?
