Volvo’s EX60 bets on 400-mile+ range and heavy tech upgrades

Volvo’s EX60 electric SUV (between the EX40 and EX90) is targeting a WLTP range of 503 miles (roughly 400+ miles EPA) with 800V architecture and 210 miles added in 10 minutes on a 400 kW charger. It uses cell-to-body construction and megacasting for a lighter, stiffer chassis, and debuts Google Gemini alongside Nvidia Drive Orin and a Snapdragon Cockpit Platform inside. The model includes Pilot Assist Plus up to 80 mph, a new multi-adaptive safety belt, and a Cross Country variant for a tougher look; design images show a lidar-free roofline unless the optional lidar is chosen. Deliveries are due around summer, with no price yet announced; the EX60 is electric-only, while a combustion XC60 remains in the lineup.
