technical sheet, photos, characteristics, price, date

There are good reasons why the Volvo EX60 has received great attention at its launch. The firm continues to bet on the mid-size electric SUV segment, and the new update of the EX60 inaugurates a new technological era for the manufacturer, including new features in the platform, battery, autonomy, safety and more. Below these lines we tell you all the details.

Volvo EX60 (2027), technical sheet

New platform and technologies

The EX60 debuts the SPA3 platform, which they assure It is the most advanced developed by Volvo to date. Unlike the EX90which uses the SPA2 architecture, this new SUV incorporates important new features, starting with its manufacturing process. And Volvo has opted this time for megacastinga technique that drastically reduces the number of individual parts by using recycled aluminum cast in large sections. The idea is to streamline production and reduce costs and weight.

Another key innovation is the use of CTB batteries (“cell-to-body”) for this model, which integrates the batteries structurally into the chassis. According to Volvo, this system improves energy density by 20% and allows 31% higher charging speeds, all while taking up less space and reducing the overall weight of the vehicle.

The EX60 also boasts an 800-volt electrical system, which translates into ultra-fast reload times, as long as our charger supports itclear. Its three versions can charge from 10 to 80% of the battery in just 18-19 minutes using a direct current fast charger (400 kW power).

Three motor and battery configurations

Volvo will offer the EX60 in three engine and battery configurations. The entry-level model, the P6 Electric, is equipped with rear-wheel drive, an 83 kWh battery and develops 374 HP (275 kW) with 480 Nm of torque. According to the technical sheet offered by Volvo, this version reaches 100 km/h in 5.9 seconds and offers up to 620 kilometers of autonomy in the WLTP combined cycle, reaching up to 740 km in urban use.

The P10 AWD Electric features all-wheel drive and a 95 kWh battery. Its power amounts to 510 HP (375 kW) and 710 Nm of torque, which allows it to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in about 4.6 seconds. The autonomy is 660 km in the combined cycle and up to 790 km in the city.

The jewel in the crown goes to the P12 AWD Electric, which has a generous 117 kWh battery and develops about 680 HP (500 kW) with 790 Nm of maximum torque. This model promises to reach 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds and, the most notable thing, is that offers up to 810 kilometers of autonomy in the WLTP cycle combined, promising up to 980 km in an urban environment. If we take a simple look, we will see that this is one of the highest autonomy figures in the current electric vehicle market in this segment.

On the other hand, it should be noted that they have a towing capacity that varies between 2,000 kg for the P6 and 2,400 kg for the all-wheel drive versions.

Minimalist line design with the Volvo touch

Aesthetically, the EX60 maintains the trend that Volvo has been showing us over the last few years, but this time it goes through a somewhat more modern and aerodynamic interpretation. The Thor’s hammer-shaped lights are still present, as well as the vertical rear lights, although with an updated finish. Factors such as the low hood, the stylized sides and the descending roof line contribute to an aerodynamic coefficient of 0.26, something that in the end ends up favoring both autonomy and efficiency.

On the other hand, it is good to know that Volvo will also offer the Cross County variant of the EX60which offers greater ground clearance, more pronounced wheel arch flares and additional protections on the bumpers.

Spacious and technologically advanced interior

When we ride In the last revision of the XC60, comfort, habitability and Scandinavian minimalism were truly present. In the case of the EX60 it seems that they are going to continue with this philosophy. For information and entertainment, the spotlight falls on a 15.04 curved OLED screen inches that centralizes most of the vehicle’s functions, running Google software with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration as standard.

One of the most notable novelties is that the vehicle arrives with Gemini integrated, Google’s voice assistant with artificial intelligence, so you can interact in a thousand ways with the AI ​​and configure various car parameters.

The EX60 is slightly longer and has a longer wheelbase than the conventional XC60 (2.87 meters versus 2.86 meters), which translates into a slightly more spacious interior. The trunk offers 634 liters of capacity with all seats in use, expandable up to 1,647 liters by folding the second row.

As for the sound equipment, those who opt for the vehicle will be able to choose between a 21-speaker Bose system or a 28-speaker Bowers & Wilkins system that, for the first time in a Volvo, includes speakers integrated into the headrests.

A smart seat belt

When we think of Volvo, the importance they give to the safety of their vehicles usually always comes to mind. In this case they wanted to reflect that feeling with the premiere of your new “Multi-Adaptive” seat beltan evolution of the three-point belt that the brand itself invented in the 1950s.

This new system uses sensors to detect the occupant’s weight, position, vehicle speed and direction of impact. In this way, Volvo promises that the belt can dynamically adjust the holding force in milliseconds optimal for each situation. According to the company, this reduces the risk of serious injuries to both heavier occupants in severe impacts and lighter passengers in minor collisions.

Prices and availability

The Volvo EX60 is now available for reservation in Europe, with prices starting from 64,900 euros for the P6 Electric, 67,925 euros for the P10 AWD Electric and 73,975 euros for the P12 AWD Electric. The first units will begin to be delivered in summer, with the P6 and P10 being the first to arrive at dealerships, while the P12 will do so later in the year.
