Volvo EX90 – Exterior
Inspired By Yachts,
Created in Scandinavian Style
The Volvo EX90 is inspired by yacht
design, and it’s created in a Scandinavian design style. The EX90 has sleek
forms and glassy surfaces. Thus, it leads the airflow nicely to the rear of the
car. Here the exterior design of the Volvo EX90 is very important. That’s because,
with all these forms, shapes, and materials the drag coefficient is as low as
0.29. It’s considered for a good coefficient having in mind that the EX90 is a
large, 7-seater, all-electric family SUV. Moreover, the low drag coefficient aim
is to increase the electrical range up to 300 miles (app. 483 km).

large windows, the panorama roof allows the light to get into the interior.
Thus, inside the EX90 could be bright and even warmer during the cold sunny
winter days.
