Whether you plan to drive from Paris to Amsterdam, make a trip from LA to San Francisco, or travel from Stockholm to Oslo, the new, all-electric Volvo EX60 SUV has your back.
With the ability to go up to a best-in-class 640 km on a single charge* in an all-wheel drive configuration, beating even its most recently revealed competitors, the EX60 doesn’t just go further than any electric car that Volvo Cars has ever created.
It turns range anxiety into range comfort, demonstrating that going electric is no longer a compromise. Volvo Cars engineers have optimized the car’s range for real-life driving and what customers experience in their daily drive.
“The EX60 is designed to be a gamechanger,” says Anders Bell, Chief Technology Officer at Volvo Cars. “With our new electric vehicle architecture, we directly address the main worries that customers have when considering a switch to a fully electric car. The result is class-leading range and fast charging speeds, marking the end of range anxiety.”
The EX60 does not only boast the longest range of any fully electric Volvo, it also charges faster than any electric Volvo before in all weather conditions. Instead of a full lunch break, a quick coffee stop is now enough to recharge the battery and hit the road again.
Practically speaking, this means the EX60 can add up to 270 km of range in just 10 minutes when using a 400kW fast charger, making a charging stop nearly as fast as a fuel stop. And all EX60 customers can get a 10-year warranty on the battery.
The key to the class-leading range is SPA3, Volvo Cars’ most advanced electric car architecture to date, which underpins the EX60. It unlocks maximum efficiency in key systems inside the car and allows the company to achieve an electric range that matches cars powered by gas engines.
Integrating the battery directly into the structure of the car with cell-to-body technology and developing e-motors in-house makes the EX60 more energy efficient and cuts excessive weight. The new cell design of the EX60’s battery carefully balances energy density and power delivery, further increasing driving range.
The EX60 is the first Volvo car built with the help of mega casting, whereby hundreds of smaller parts are replaced with a single, high-precision casting in the production process. This reduces weight which again improves range and lets you go further.
The fast charging speeds are made possible by Volvo Cars’ new 800-volt electrical system and in-house developed software, which together move energy into the battery more efficiently. The use of lighter materials and less heat generation also support faster charging times, meaning the EX60 can add over 150 km of range in just a few minutes.
Clever algorithms developed by Volvo Cars’ portfolio company Breathe Battery Technologies have also been incorporated in the EX60. These allow the car to constantly adjust how the battery takes in power, keeping it in its ideal operating zone at all times and in all weather conditions.
Finally, because this is an electric car with less moving parts, it does not have to undergo conventional service as often. In short, the EX60 is a no-compromises electric car, designed to provide the freedom to move in a new, all-electric era. The Volvo EX60 will be revealed on January 21, 2026 and the entire global reveal event will be livestreamed HERE.
The small print
Range figures are preliminary and derive from estimates and calculations performed by Volvo Cars for EX60 based on EPA testing cycles and these outcomes are not guaranteed. Range based on summer tires not available through Volvo Car Canada Limited. Official EPA range estimates will be released at a later date. Actual range can vary depending on tire type and size, car specification (including but not limited to powertrain), charge level, outdoor temperature, battery temperature, weather, accessories, topography, driving style and car speed.
Charging times can vary and depend on various factors such as outdoor temperature, battery condition and car condition. Charging times mentioned in this press release are based on testing at 400 kW charging facilities.
