Here, the Volvo MPV appears to feature the ‘Thor’s Hammer’ signature LED daytime running lights as on the fully electric EX90 and the EX30, albeit without the former’s arrangement that physically opens up the DRLs to uncover the main lighting units. Instead, the main beam units on the Volvo MPV appear to be situated lower in the front bumper.
The interior layout for the upcoming Volvo MPV appears to accommodate seven seats, configured in a 2-2-3 layout. Car News China reports. In the 009, there are six seats in a 2-2-2 layout, and the Zeekr will also be offered with a VIP option that features captain seats in the second row.
No official word has been released regarding the Volvo MPV’s powertrain, though given its ties to the 009, it can be expected to share the Zeekr’s line-up of single- and dual-motor configurations which produce 272 hp and 544 hp, respectively. The Zeekr 009 is offered with a choice of 116 kWh and 140 kWh battery packs, with the most efficient combination yielding a claimed range of 822 km, the report noted.
In terms of pricing, the upcoming Volvo MPV is expected to cost more than the Zeekr 009 does in China, the latter being priced from 499,000 yuan to 588,000 yuan (RM320,407 to RM377,554). Given the predicted positioning of the Volvo MPV above the Zeekr, Car News China predicts that the Volvo model could reach up to the equivalent of US$100,000 (RM460,700) in China.
