2026 Volvo EX90 Plus: Brooklyn Buyers Guide
Quick Answer: The 2026 EX90 Plus
The 2026 Volvo EX90 Plus starts at $76,695 MSRP with the new Single Motor rear-wheel-drive powertrain (329 hp), before the $1,395 destination charge. Buyers can step up to Twin Motor all-wheel drive for $79,995 (7-seat) or $80,495 (6-seat). Plus is where the EX90's full standard equipment list starts: wireless Apple CarPlay, Google built-in, Bose Premium sound, a head-up display, and the complete 8-camera/5-radar/16-ultrasonic-sensor safety suite, all included with no options box to check. It's the trim most first-time EX90 buyers at Volvo Cars Brooklyn are choosing, and for 2026 it's also the only trim that offers the new, lower-priced Single Motor entry point.
The trim that makes the EX90 accessible
For the first three model years, an EX90 meant a Twin Motor and a price that started well north of $80,000. The 2026 Single Motor changes that math for Plus buyers specifically — a genuine rear-wheel-drive electric SUV at $76,695 MSRP, 329 horsepower, 0-60 in 6.6 seconds. It won't win a stoplight race against the Twin Motor variants, but it's the version most likely to sit comfortably inside a monthly budget while still delivering everything that actually defines the Plus trim: wireless Apple CarPlay (a real point of difference from Volvo's gas SUVs, which still run wired), Google built-in with four years of the digital services package folded in at no charge, a Bose Premium sound system, and a head-up display projecting speed and navigation onto the windshield. None of that gets held back for a higher trim — it's all here from the first EX90 that rolls off the lot.
Buyers who want all-wheel drive without stepping up to Ultra can spec the Twin Motor on Plus: up to 442 horsepower, a 5.3-second 0-60, and the same equipment list as the Single Motor version, just with the added traction and roughly $3,300 more on the sticker for the 7-seat build. Every Plus, regardless of motor, seats 6 or 7 by buyer's choice at order — it's not something locked to the trim.
What carries over, what doesn't
The full "Safety Cage" sensor package — 8 cameras, 5 radars, 16 ultrasonic sensors — is standard on Plus exactly as it is on Ultra; nothing about the active-safety suite is held back for the top trim. What Plus doesn't get is the electrochromic panoramic roof (Ultra's tinting glass upgrade), ventilated front seats, and front-seat massage — comfort features rather than safety ones, which is a reasonable place for Volvo to draw the trim line. Cargo capacity, the 85.3 cubic feet with seatbacks folded plus the 2.5 cubic foot front storage compartment, is identical across both trims, as is the hands-free power tailgate.
A note on Brooklyn charging before choosing a build
Anyone cross-shopping motor options should factor in how they'll actually charge day to day, and that calculus looks different in Sunset Park than it does in a suburb with a driveway. A lot of EX90 shoppers here are apartment or brownstone dwellers without dedicated home charging, which makes the standard NACS adapter more than a spec-sheet line item — it's the difference between relying on the CCS network alone and having access to Tesla's Supercharger network on top of it, spread widely enough across the city to matter for someone charging in public most of the time. The Single Motor's shorter real-world range makes that charging access even more relevant than it is on the Twin Motor, worth weighing against the lower purchase price.
What a recent buyer said
A customer who bought earlier this year described working with the sales team on finding the right fit: "Thomas Palladino, and Leroy Henderson really helped assist me in finding which vehicle was right for me. They were both extremely knowledgeable and very patient with me, as I asked many questions." That kind of walkthrough matters more on an EX90 than it would shopping a gas SUV — deciding between Single Motor and Twin Motor, and between 6- and 7-seat configurations, is a genuinely different conversation than picking paint colors.
Frequently asked questions
What's included on the EX90 Plus that isn't on every EV in this price range?
Wireless Apple CarPlay, a Bose Premium sound system, a head-up display, and the full 8-camera/5-radar/16-ultrasonic sensor suite are all standard equipment on Plus, not optional add-ons or Ultra-exclusive features.
Should I get the Single Motor or Twin Motor Plus?
Single Motor is the lower-cost, rear-wheel-drive entry point at $76,695 MSRP; Twin Motor adds all-wheel drive and more power for roughly $3,300-3,800 more. Buyers without a strong need for AWD traction, or watching the budget closely, tend to find Single Motor covers daily driving fine; anyone wanting the reassurance of all-wheel drive in Brooklyn winters should look at Twin Motor.
Does the EX90 Plus have a third row?
Yes — every EX90, Plus or Ultra, is configurable as either a 6- or 7-seat layout at order. It's a buyer's choice, not a trim restriction.
How much does the 2026 EX90 Plus cost?
$76,695 MSRP for Single Motor, $79,995 (7-seat) or $80,495 (6-seat) for Twin Motor, all before the $1,395 destination charge, taxes, title, and registration.
Drive the entry point before assuming it's a compromise
329 horsepower and a 6.6-second 0-60 don't read as fast on paper next to the Twin Motor numbers, but the Single Motor Plus is still a quick, quiet electric SUV in daily driving. Volvo Cars Brooklyn's showroom at 148 39th Street usually has both motor options on hand to compare back to back.
