Volvo readies for newest all-electric EX60 arrival in Australia in late 2026
The mid-size all-electric EX60, a 5 seat SUV that changes the game in terms of range, charging speed and performance.
The Volvo EX60 ends range anxiety and delivers a groundbreaking user experience and represents the next frontier in safety.
Initially available in two different powertrains – a rear-wheel powered P6 variant that delivers up to 610km of range and the P10 AWD with a range of up to 660 kms (WLTP combined).
The Volvo EX60 comes with a ten-year battery warranty. The EX60 is built on SPA3, Volvo Cars’ new electric vehicle architecture, and powered by HuginCore, the Volvo Cars core system. It sets new standards in scalability, modularity and manufacturing efficiencies.
Cell-to-body technology, next-generation in-house developed e-motors, a new battery cell design and mega casting all help to boost energy efficiency and driving range, while reducing weight.
This also helps the EX60 to achieve the lowest carbon footprint for a fully electric Volvo car, matching that of the smaller EX30 and making the EX60 a better choice for the environment.
In terms of design, the EX60 takes the company’s Scandinavian design principles further into an all-electric era.
It combines a stylish, confident and efficient exterior with natural, high-end material inside that gives customers a calm, refined and versatile space with smart storage. A low front, a sloping roofline and tapered body sides all boost overall aerodynamic efficiency.
As a result, the EX60 has a very competitive drag coefficient of 0.26 contributing to the class-leading range. Inside, the EX60 is high in versatility and practicality.
The long wheelbase and flat floor create much more legroom in the rear, as well as a large luggage compartment and various smart storage spaces for personal items.
For those who love music, the Volvo EX60 is an excellent choice with a premium 28-speaker Bowers and Wilkins audio system.
For the first time in a Volvo car, this system includes headrest speakers in all four main seats.
The EX60 will be the first Volvo with Apple Music pre-installed with Dolby Atmos, delivering and immersive Spatial Audio experience.
As Volvo Cars’ most intelligent car yet, the EX60 is packed with state-of-the-art technology designed to improve life behind the wheel.
The EX60 is powered by the latest iteration of HuginCore, the Volvo Cars core system that empowers the car to think, process and act.
It embodies the company’s approach to technology development, combining in-house development and collaboration with tech leaders such as Google, NVIDIA and Qualcomm Technologies Inc.
The EX60 is the first Volvo car to launch with Gemini, the new AI assistant from Google. Gemini is deeply integrated with your car and lets you have natural and personalised conversations without having to remember specific commands.
The introduction of Gemini reflects the longstanding relationship between Volvo Cars and Google, and Volvo Cars’ status as a lead development partner and one of the reference hardware platforms for AndroidTM Automotive OS.
The EX60 also contains the most responsive user experience in any Volvo car to date. In this seamless and no-lag infotainment system, screens respond quickly, maps load instantly, voice assistants understand passengers better, and everything feels smooth, while the UX provides quicker access to key functions.
This being a Volvo, it is one of the safest cars on the market and represents the purest form of the Volvo Cars Safety Standard, going above and beyond regulations and rating requirements.
Enabled by HuginCore, the EX60 reaches new levels of safety, as it constantly assesses the world around the car through its wide array of sensors. The result is a car with a clear and precise understanding of its surroundings.
Volvo Cars’ multi-adaptive safety belt, a world-first and award-winning safety innovation, will offer smarter and more personalised protection in the front row.
At the core of the EX60’s safety structure is the safety cage, strengthened with boron steel. Inside, state-of-the-art restraints work together to help provide optimal protection.
