There is plenty to be excited about the all-new 2026 Volvo EX60 and prior to its global launch on 21 January, Gothenburg has dropped set a teaser photos that paint a slightly clearer picture of the new electric SUV.
No prizes for guessing that the EX60 slots in between the EX90 largest flagship and the compact EX30. After all, it is meant as an electric alternative to the XC60.
Volvo has perfected the art of minimalism in its design, and from the very little we can make out of the sole interior shot, the dashboard takes it up a notch. There is a tall vertical infotainment screen like all contemporary Volvos but what catches the attention is a crystal-effect volume control on the extremely bare centre console.
You can just make out the AC controls on the screen and the Gemini logo, as the EX60 will feature Google’s Ai assistant.
Keeping in line with the rest of the EX-range, the EX60 has vertical LED signatures that trace the upper half’s outline and those haunch shoulders.
Volvo has rightly been rubbing the EX60’s best-in-class range of 810 km in everyone’s noses. Furthermore, it will become the fastest charging Volvo yet, courtesy of its 800V architecture running on in-house developed software for efficiency.
Hooked up to a 400 kW fast charger, the EX60 can get 340 km of range in just 10 minutes. Even the flagship ES90 sedan only supports up to 350 kW of fast charging, netting 300 km of range in 10 minutes. Volvo intends to alleviate fears of battery issues with a 10-year warranty.

The EX60 will be the first to ride on the new SPA3 platform, its most advanced electric architecture to date. It integrates the battery directly into the car’s structure with cell-to-body technology and to keep weight down, allowing for more range. Electric motors developed in-house further increases efficiency to boost the range.
Volvo has pushed to cut poundage on the EX60, attributing that factor significantly towards the extended range. Another first here is the use of a mega casting process that combines hundreds of smaller parts into a single, precise casting that results in a lighter final component.
Volvo Car Malaysia has confirmed that the EX60 will make its way to Malaysia with a media release focussing on its range that can cover Johor to Perlis or Sabah to Sarawak on a single charge. However, that will only come following the launch of the ES90 electric sedan before the end of the month.
