Car Buyer's Guide

Overview

The Volvo S90 is Volvo’s flagship executive sedan, sold in Malaysia as a five-seat plug-in hybrid. The current Mk2 facelift range is simple: one Recharge T8 AWD Ultimate variant priced from RM370,888. It suits buyers who want a large Volvo saloon with petrol-electric drive rather than a German-badged default.

S90 in 2026 — what's new

The S90 carries on into 2026 unchanged, with no new S90-specific update in Volvo Malaysia’s latest sedan news. The range remains the Recharge T8 AWD Ultimate only, using a 1,969 cc petrol plug-in hybrid powertrain with 315 hp, all-wheel drive and a conventional automatic transmission. Volvo’s 2026 sedan activity centres on the ES90 electric model instead.

Verdict

The S90 is a narrowly defined executive sedan: one body style, one five-seat cabin layout and one plug-in hybrid AWD powertrain. Its RM370,888 price puts it above several direct rivals’ starting points, so the case here is not entry-price value. Buy it because you specifically want Volvo’s large saloon with petrol-electric drive, not because it is the cheapest way into the class.
