The new Volvo EX60: 810 km range and charging as fast as a fuel and coffee stop

Volvo sets a new standard for electric driving

08/01/2026

With the Volvo EX60, Volvo Cars takes an impressive next step towards worry-free electric driving. The brand new electric SUV combines a best-in-class range of up to 810 kilometres with ultra-fast charging, suddenly making long distances as effortless as with a classic combustion engine.

Whether you are driving from Paris to Amsterdam, connecting Stockholm with Oslo, or planning a long European road trip: the EX60 promises to permanently replace range anxiety with range comfort.

810 km range: further than ever for an electric Volvo

With a range of up to 810 km (WLTP) in all-wheel drive, the EX60 is not only the electric Volvo with the longest range ever, but also a clear benchmark in its segment. Volvo's engineers optimised the entire drivetrain not for laboratory conditions, but for realistic everyday use: motorway, city traffic, cold, heat and everything in between.

According to Volvo, the EX60 proves that electric driving no longer has to be a compromise, even for drivers who travel often and far.

Charging in minutes, not hours

Just as impressive is the charging capability. Thanks to an 800V electrical system, the Volvo EX60 can add up to 340 km of range in just 10 minutes at a 400 kW fast charger. That makes a charging stop comparable to a short fuel and coffee break.

Important detail: this charging speed advantage is maintained in all weather conditions, a classic weak point for many EVs. Volvo also offers a 10-year warranty on the EX60's battery, further underlining confidence in the technology.

SPA3 platform: the technological backbone

The key to this performance lies in the entirely new SPA3 platform, Volvo's most advanced electric architecture to date. This structure uses cell-to-body technology, in which the battery forms a load-bearing part of the body. That results in:

  • Less weight

  • More structural rigidity

  • Higher energy efficiency

Volvo also developed the electric motors in-house, ensuring the drivetrain is perfectly tuned for efficiency and performance.

Mega casting: fewer parts, more efficiency

The EX60 is the first Volvo built using mega casting technology. This replaces hundreds of individual components with a single high-precision casting. The result: lower weight, fewer production steps and, once again, a direct gain in range and efficiency.

The new battery design also plays a role. The cells were developed with an optimal balance between energy density and power output, benefiting both range and charging speed.

Smart software, smarter charging

The EX60's charging speed is further optimised by advanced software. Volvo integrated algorithms from Breathe Battery Technologies, which keep the battery continuously within its ideal temperature and charging zone, regardless of outside temperature or charging situation.

Less heat generation, more efficient energy transfer and smarter charging ensure that every minute at the charging station delivers maximum benefit.

Less maintenance, more freedom

Because an electric drivetrain has fewer moving parts, the EX60 requires less frequent maintenance than conventional models. That fits perfectly within Volvo's vision of worry-free mobility, in which technology serves comfort and freedom.

The official world premiere of the Volvo EX60 takes place on 21 January 2026 and will be livestreamed worldwide.
