Features & Benefits

Reduce emissions and reduce running costs in the L90 Electric

A cleaner, smarter choice

Thanks to zero exhaust emissions, the L90 Electric wheel loader joins the ever-growing portfolio of Volvo electric machines to help you move closer to achieving your fossil-free ambitions. The L90 Electric also creates unique business opportunities with a 60-80% energy cost reduction and 30% less maintenance requirements.

Open more opportunities

With the L90 Electric wheel loader it is now easier to access jobsites with low carbon and low noise requirements, making it ideal for indoor work and other restricted job sites. Operate indoors without needing costly fume extraction systems or spark arrestors, and work outside of standard hours where noise restrictions apply.

A sustainable choice

The Volvo L90 Electric is the perfect option to move closer towards your sustainability goals by eliminating tailpipe emissions and drastically reducing energy consumption . It reduces environmental impact with up to 65 % energy savings compared to diesel models, and the quieter operation minimizes noise pollution too. What’s more, with fewer parts and lower maintenance needs, the extended lifecycle of the machine reduces waste and resource used, further reducing the environmental impact of your operation.

Lower maintenance costs

Boost your bottom line with a 30% reduction in maintenance time and costs thanks to the fully electric driveline. Features such as no engine-related consumables, maintenance-free electric motors and a 4,000-hour axle oil change interval all contribute to less maintenance time and costs. Ensure swift maintenance and servicing with ground-level service access, swing out radiators and the electronic engine cover which opens at the push of a button.

Discover how a range of features delivers the same – if not better – power and performance as the L90 Electric’s diesel counterparts.

Powerful performance

Thanks to the electric power, the Volvo L90 offers instant torque – providing a smooth, powerful performance and contributing towards faster response and shorter cycle times. This boosts productivity as the machine can respond quickly and efficiently to heavy loads and complex tasks, improving overall worksite efficiency.

High-efficiency electric powertrain

The Volvo L90 Electric offers powerful performance with dedicated electric motors for propulsion and hydraulics, delivering full power to both systems for a smooth operation. The Volvo-designed transmission seamlessly integrates components, maximizing energy efficiency, while a dual thermal system keeps components at optimal temperatures for maximum longevity

Engineered for peak efficiency

The L90 Electric's active cooling and heating systems maintain ideal battery temperatures, while passive cooling manages motor, transmission and hydraulic oil heat. This thermal control boosts battery life and performance, providing consistent and reliable power to support even the most demanding tasks.

Lift and load with ease

Take on any application with the Torque Parallel (TP) linkage, for the ultimate in machine versatility and precision working whatever the task at hand. Not only does the TP linkage offer high breakout and lifting forces, and excellent visibility, it keeps the attachments parallel throughout the lifting range for exceptional load stability and easy bucket filling.

A range of attachments

Whatever the job, Volvo offers a full range of Volvo buckets to handle everything, from light material to heavy rocks including general purpose, grading, refuse, light material, and more. Built on decades of engineering excellence, Volvo buckets are optimized for Volvo wheel loaders and durably designed for all types of materials and tasks. Change tools in a matter of seconds with the Volvo attachment bracket.

With an impressive runtime on a single charge and a host of charging options, choosing Electric has never made more sense.

Runtime and charging

Deliver 4-6 hours of operation in medium duty applications – or a full working day in lighter applications – supported by a number of AC and DC charging options.

A range of charging options

An integrated onboard AC charger powers up the machine overnight in 7 hours, while a range of off-board chargers provide faster charging. What’s more, the machine is designed to support fast charging and can recharge at 120kW DC from 20%-80% in 55-minutes. The machine is also compatible with a 40kW DC moveable charger and PU500 Mobile Power Unit. A CCS2 charging interface/Type 2 automotive standard inlet enables easy access to common chargers.

Energy recovery function

An added benefit of the zero-exhaust emission L90 Electric wheel loader is that its electrical drive motor recuperates energy by acting as a generator when decelerating. The reuse of braking energy helps to charge the battery and prolong runtime. It also ensures decreased brake wear and the reduced need of axle oil cooling.

Keep track with the My Equipment app

My Equipment is a web-based application designed to makes it easy and simple to track vital data like battery charging status and power consumption, wherever you are at any time. With real-time information about machine hours, battery status and location, My Equipment gives operators full control when monitoring their machines. The app is integrated with CareTrack and accessible on any device.

The already industry-renowned levels of Volvo cab comfort are taken to uniquely new heights thanks to less noise and vibration.

A quieter, more comfortable and productive cab

A more comfortable work environment is guaranteed thanks to less noise, lower vibrations and outstanding responsiveness as a result of the wheel loader’s electric operation. A quieter jobsite facilitates improved communication for those inside and outside the machine, for a safer and more productive working day.

Premium operator environment

Hard work has never felt so easy from the spacious Volvo cab, featuring an ergonomic workspace, with no controls situated higher than the shoulders, and a choice of comfortable operator seat. Operators can perform basic configurations using the information panel and keep an eye on the operation with the Contronic display.

Total operator control

The L90 Electric enjoys all the features and benefits of the conventional model, including electro-hydraulic lever controls for smooth control and less heat in the cab, an auto bucket levelling function, the optional Comfort Drive Control and Rimpull Control.

Load Assist

Boost efficiency with the Load Assist suite of smart apps, designed to boost the productivity of your operation. Load Assist is accessed via Volvo Co-Pilot and includes On-Board Weighing helping to eliminate over and underloading, while the tire pressure monitoring app saves inspection time and extends tire life. Connected Map offers complete jobsite visibility, tracking all personnel and vehicles in real-time, accessible on-site and in the office.

See more, do more

Experience a clear view of the attachment and jobsite thanks to large expanses of glass, redesigned side mirrors, rear-view camera and optional front camera. The machines also feature orange handrails and steps to stand out against the jobsite, and LED lights, available in various packages.
