Overview
The Volvo XC90 is a second-generation, facelifted executive SUV with seven seats and a petrol-hybrid line-up. Launched in Malaysia in 2025, it suits buyers who want a large family SUV with a premium badge rather than a people carrier. The range starts from RM418,888.
XC90 in 2026 — what's new
For 2026, the Volvo XC90 facelift continues in Malaysia as the Ultra B5 MHEV and Ultra T8 PHEV. The latest update is a new Aurora Silver colour, with no change to the two-variant structure or pricing. The XC90 sits alongside the electric EX90 in Volvo’s large SUV line-up, while a larger hybrid SUV positioned above both models is under consideration.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should start with the Ultra B5 at RM418,888. It has seven seats, a 1,969 cc petrol-hybrid powertrain, 249 hp and a conventional automatic gearbox. The Ultra T8 costs RM434,888, so the RM16,000 gap buys plug-in hybrid hardware and a higher 317 hp output, not extra seats. Pay more for the T8 if you can charge at home or work and want the stronger drivetrain.

Verdict
The XC90 remains Volvo’s combustion-engined seven-seat flagship alongside the electric EX90. Its appeal is clear if you want SUV seating and presence instead of a traditional seven-seat MPV. It is not the cheapest executive SUV here: the Mazda CX-80, Audi Q8 e-tron and Volkswagen Touareg all start lower. The T8 PHEV also sits just RM8,000 below the EX90 EV, so the choice quickly becomes hybrid convenience versus going fully electric.
