Volvo Puts Its Money Where Its Mouth Is, Sends UX-Upgrading Over-The-Air Software Update To 2.5 Million Cars

Volvo Cars delivers a free, redesigned infotainment system upgrade to 2.5 million vehicles in 85 countries, enhancing usability and adding downloadable Pilot Assist features.

  • On Tuesday, Volvo Cars announced it will roll out the Volvo Car UX over-the-air to about 2.5 million vehicles worldwide this week, marking its biggest OTA update to date.
  • Facing reviewer criticism, Volvo redesigned its software to include quicker drive-mode access, a contextual bar, and a camera shortcut at low speeds in the new Volvo Car UX.
  • Redesigned home screens now place maps, media and phone controls more prominently, reducing taps; drivers can adjust music on the navigation screen, access Pure electric mode with one tap, and enjoy simpler drive-mode selection in plug-in hybrid models.
  • Owners of 2021 to 2025 Volvos with Google Built-In can purchase Pilot Assist for a one-time $595 charge, and modern hardware enables over-the-air installation benefiting used-car buyers.
  • Compatible with 2020 and newer Volvo models, the update built on Android Automotive OS integrates Google built-in, delivering a consistent UX across older XC40 and newer EX90 models.
