The Volvo EX60 is an upcoming battery electric compact luxury SUV to be manufactured and marketed by Swedish automaker Volvo Cars.
Overview
The EX60 is the first Volvo built on the SPA3 platform, an evolution of the already-existing Scalable Product Architecture platform.[1] The SPA3 platform uses megacasting to reduce production time and cost, and features cell-to-body technology which integrates the battery pack with the chassis.[2] It will be built in Torslanda and its platform will eventually underpin all Volvo models.[3]
It is also the first Volvo to feature a standard NACS charging port, offering up to a 400 kW DC fast charger that adds an estimated 170 miles of range in 10 minutes.[4]
Design
The EX60 uses a similar design language to that of other Volvo models, including the brand's hammer-shaped daytime running lights and the vertical taillights used by the brand's SUVs and the ES90. The interior also resembles Volvo's electric models.[5]
Features
The EX60 uses a frunk that allows for items to be stored at the front. The infotainment system used by the EX60 is claimed to have no lag and is powered by Nvidia's AGX Orin platform with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8255 CPU. It has Google Gemini built into the infotainment system.[6]

They use a 80 kWh, 91 kWh and 112 kWh battery, and offer 620 km (310 miles), 660 km (320 miles), and 810 km (400 miles) of range respectively. According to Volvo, all models are limited to a top speed of 180 km/h (112 mph) are able to charge from 10%-80% in 18-19 minutes.
