Volvo has breathed new life into its 2025 XC90 SUV lineup, unveiling updates that maintain its position as a premium choice in the large SUV segment. With subtle design tweaks, a larger infotainment display, and additional sound insulation, the XC90 continues to differentiate itself from its fully electric counterpart, the EX90\. Here’s a closer look at what’s new for the 2025 Volvo XC90.

## Exterior Updates

While the 2025 XC90 retains its classic vertical tail lights, Volvo has introduced new graphics to give them a refreshed look. Unlike the C-clamp style lights on the EX90, the XC90's tail lights stay true to the model's heritage. Other distinctive features include chrome accents and traditional, non-flush door handles, setting it apart from the more futuristic EX90.

## Interior Enhancements

The most significant changes are found inside the cabin. The XC90 now features a larger 11.2-inch infotainment touchscreen, up from the previous 9.0 inches, offering a 21% higher pixel density for improved resolution. Additionally, Volvo has added extra sound insulation to reduce road noise, enhancing the overall comfort and driving experience.
