Basically two things are known about the Volvo EM90: it is a minivan, also known as the Scandinavian living room, and moreover it is a 100 percent electric car. The move is quite expected, especially given the preferences of the van-focused Chinese brand owners.
You don’t have to be an advanced conspiracy theorist to guess which model Volvo will offer under the name EM90. Of course, the Zeekr 009 minivan, officially presented in November 2022. The single-volume vehicle, made on SEA’s electric platform, will have the same air suspension with double wishbones at the front and a multi-link rear. The length of the Chinese version is 5209 mm, the wheelbase is 3205 mm. More than enough to meet the characteristics of car comfort known to Europeans.
It is also known that the EM90 will be 99% identical to the 009 model. And this implies the presence of a twin-motor electric drive in combination with 544 forces and 686 Nm. The layout is predominantly rear-wheel drive, the front being connected with a clutch if necessary. The autonomous power reserve is also quite “Venovsky” – up to 822 km.
The Chinese will have the opportunity to be the first to book a novelty on the day of the premiere on November 12 on the rights of the first night. Meanwhile, the “donor” EM90 from China – Zeekr 009 – can already be purchased in Russia at a price of 10.6 million rubles. An entire VIP MPV with two home cinemas in the cabin.
