Volvo teases its all-new EX90 electric SUV's interior, which is made from sustainable materials

Volvo is set to release a new model SUV called the EX90 on November 9. The latest teasers from the company give us a glimpse of what the interior will look like. Although we can't see large parts of the cabin, it's clear that sustainability was factored into design.

The smell of new animal leather is no longer the only indication of a rich interior, Volvo says.

The new Volvo EX90 will be made with recycled materials such as PET bottles and pine resin, called Nordico. Furthermore, it'll have FSC-certified wood panels that are backlit. The seats will be finished with a wool blend that meets harsh animal welfare and environmental standards. In total, the car contains almost 50 kilograms (110 pounds) of recycled plastics and bio-based materials.

The EX90 will come in seven different interior and exterior styles that are inspired by the Scandinavian lifestyle and its relationship with nature.

The EX90 will come with a variety of tech features, including interior radar sensors designed to detect kids and pets left in the vehicle. The company hopes this will help reduce their chances of being left in hot cars. The exterior will be just as smart, with 16 ultrasonic sensors, eight cameras, and five radars scanning its surroundings.

Earlier we found out that the Volvo EX90 will be the first car from the company to come standard with hardware that enables bi-directional charging. Volvo car's battery pack can be used to charge other electric automobiles, power electric devices while camping, or recharge another EV. It can also send electricity back to the grid during peak hours, minimizing strain on the system.

We will probably learn a lot more about it next month at its debut, and it might go on sale next year. Volvo would likely sell EX90 alongside the XC90.
