Exterior design of the 2025 Volvo XC90

The Volvo XC90 SUV's general design is still reminiscent of the previous generation. Nonetheless, the all-electric Volvo EX90 served as the model for many of the updated external stylistic features, including as the new alloy wheels, thinner "Thor" hammer headlamps, updated bumpers, darker taillights, and a reworked grille with diagonal slats (see table below for XC90 measurements). If the air suspension is used, the ground clearance increases from 238mm to 267mm.
