Volvo says new EX60 has 400-mile range, charges up to 400 kW

  • On January 21, 2026, Volvo will livestream the EX60 electric midsize SUV reveal, which the Swedish automaker says offers an estimated 400-mile range and marks its most important new model.
  • Facing customer concerns over charging, Volvo research found EV owners often planned life around waits of 40 minutes or more, prompting the EX60 to tackle range anxiety and fill a missing affordable family SUV niche.
  • Under the skin, the EX60 uses Volvo's SPA3 EV architecture with an 800-volt electrical system, megacasting, and a structural battery pack to enhance efficiency and range, Volvo CTO Anders Bell said.
  • Volvo plans to price the EX60 near the XC60 plug-in hybrid and offers a global 10-year battery warranty covering up to 240,000km, partnering with Vattenfall for grid services.
  • Infrastructure-Wise, critics note 400 kW chargers remain scarce in the United States, though Volvo says the EX60 can add 168 miles in 10 minutes and will compete with Tesla Model Y, BMW iX3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC EV.
