Volvo Just Revealed The All-Electric EX60 With Up To 400-Mile Range

Key Points

• The Volvo EX60 debuted as a midsize electric SUV with up to 400-mile range.
• Features fast charging, AI-powered Google infotainment, and Tesla Supercharger compatibility.
• Pricing starts around $60,000; rugged Cross Country variant also revealed for pre-orders.

Volvo’s most popular SUV in the U.S. just got an electric makeover
The EX60 made its global debut on Wednesday, showing off Volvo’s longest-range EV yet with fast charging and AI-enabled infotainment and safety features. Based on Volvo’s best-selling XC60 midsize SUV, the five-seater EX60 hopes to replicate that demand in an all-electric redesign. The electric version is similar in length to its gas version, with a familiar interior space, though it is heavier due to the battery, weighing up to 5,137 pounds. Since there’s no engine, it offers 3 cubic feet of front trunk (known as a frunk) space.

Looking at the EX60 continues Volvo’s established all-electric design language. With a similar front-end look to the EX90 and EX30, the EX60 slots right in with its sloping roofline and Thor’s Hammer segmented LED lights. The top trim offers a 28-speaker Bowers & Wilkins audio system with headrest speakers in four seats for the first time in a Volvo. Apple Music will be pre-installed for the first time in a Volvo, as well.

Volvo is no stranger to fully electric vehicles with its EX90, smaller EX30, and its original C40 Recharge (now the EX40), but it never broke into the more competitive battery range zone. Other premium and EV-only brands like Lucid, Tesla, and Mercedes-Benz offer well over 300 miles (and even over 400 miles) of range for entry-level models, while Volvo has always hovered around 300 miles.

But now the best EX60 offers a 400-mile range on 20-inch tires. The lowest-range configuration has a 290-mile range. New battery cell design on the 800-volt system, more efficient casting, and lighter materials all helped improve range and efficiency. The EX60 will also be the first Volvo in the U.S. built with a NACS charging port (North American Charging Standard from Tesla), making it Tesla Supercharger compatible, which opens up more than 25,000 fast chargers — no adapter necessary this time.

Charging is also faster with the EX60, with up to 173 miles of range added in 10 minutes on a 400 kW fast charger, and a 10% to 80% charge time of 18 minutes. The EX60 has a 19.2 kW onboard charger, making it the fastest-charging electric Volvo.

Variety of variants
The EX60 will come in three different flavors, or more accurately, propulsion variants: P6, P10, and P12. The base P6 is rear-wheel drive with a 310-mile range on 20-inch tires. The battery sizes are 80 kWh, 91 kWh, and 112 kWh across the variants. The P12 will be the longest-range electric Volvo ever when it arrives later this year, bringing what Volvo has dubbed “range comfort” instead of anxiety. The dual-motor P10 and P12 offer AWD and 320- and 400-mile range, respectively.

In terms of performance, the P6 will make 369 horsepower with 354 pound-feet of torque with a 5.7-second zero-to-60 mph time. The P10 is 503 horsepower with 524 lb-ft of instant torque and 4.4-second acceleration. The top P12 reaches 670 horsepower with 583 pound-feet of torque. It jumps to 60 mph in 3.8 seconds. All three are limited to a top speed of 112 mph. To start, the EX60 will be available in either Plus or Ultra trim levels. Eventually, the entry-level Core trim level will be available for “select” variants.

Advanced tech featuring, of course, AI
The EX60 is based on Volvo’s latest SPA3 electric car architecture. This lays a foundation for the brand’s new processing capabilities with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Cockpit and Nvidia’s chips powering infotainment and driver assistance. It all comes together through HuginCore, the Norse-named tech system, that houses all the software processing. The EX60 comes with four years of free unlimited data.

A long-established partnership with Google for built-in infotainment features, like Google Maps for navigation, takes it up a notch. The EX60 will be the first Volvo with Google’s AI assistant, Gemini, baked into the vehicle. This will provide natural language voice control so you can talk to the car and ask it about everything from questions about the car (“How do I open the charging port?”) to general knowledge about the world (“How many Volvo EVs were sold in Sweden last year?”) to specific, personal queries (“What’s the drive time to my next appointment?”).

Capable of over 250 trillion operations per second, the car and its software (and data from sensors and cameras) have essentially no lag time, which is essential for safety on top of the car’s structural design and adaptive seat belts. Volvo will continue to provide over-the-air updates for its software and hinted at Volvo cars communicating (and learning) with each other on the road.

When will the EX60 be available, and how much will it cost?
The EX60 opened for orders in Europe on Wednesday, and the U.S. will follow later in the spring. Production in Sweden will begin in April for the P6 and P10, while the P12 will start production later in the year. It’s a similar cadence for customer deliveries. Car deliveries will start this summer for the P6 and P10 variants, followed later in the year for the P12.

Volvo is targeting around $60,000 for the mid-tier P10 AWD Plus trim, which includes standard features like a panoramic roof, 360-degree camera, 20-inch wheels, 21-speaker Bose Premium sound system, and a 15-inch curved OLED touchscreen with Google built-in and Volvo’s Pilot Assist advanced driving system, mainly for highways and major thoroughfares. For comparison, the latest XC60 base (a mild hybrid) starts around $51,000, while the plug-in version starts around $62,000 with only 35 miles of battery range.

But wait, there’s more: EX60 Cross-Country
A more rugged, powerful version of the EX60 was also unveiled on Wednesday. The Cross Country model has special wheels that other Volvo Cross Country models do not feature and other branding on the front and rear bumpers. It has brushed stainless steel skid plates and wider wheel arches than the EX60.

The Cross Country is 20 millimeters higher off the ground for better visibility and control, and an additional 20 millimeters of height is available through the air suspension system. It can also be lowered for more efficiency and stability when on the highway. The Cross Country hits 60 mph in 4.5 seconds.

The Cross Country is also available for pre-orders starting Wednesday in Europe. It offers 300 miles of range in the dual-motor P10 AWD. A P12 with a longer (unspecified) range will follow.

Final thoughts
This is the electric Volvo we’ve all been waiting for, with the EX60 sitting as a Goldilocks EV compared to the too-big EX90 and too-small EX30. With real range in the top version and fast charging and overall more efficient, the EX60 will be the way forward for Volvo’s ongoing electrification plans. The appeal of the XC60 (it was the best-selling Volvo in the U.S. for 2025 with sales up 6% from the year before) should translate into a midsize SUV even with only battery power, especially with a Google-backed tech upgrade. The EX60 should be just right.
