Volvo Cars has raised the benchmark for electric vehicles. The new Volvo EX60 delivers up to 810 kilometres of driving range on a single charge in all-wheel drive form. This figure leads its segment and exceeds every electric Volvo released so far. The EX60 focuses on real driving conditions, not lab-only figures, aiming to remove daily charging stress for drivers.
Record-Breaking Electric Range
The Volvo EX60 reaches up to 810 km of range. This result places it ahead of recently announced rivals. Volvo engineers tuned efficiency for daily use, city traffic, highways, and cold weather. The goal is simple. Drive longer with fewer stops.
Anders Bell, Chief Technology Officer at Volvo Cars, states that the EX60 directly targets buyer concerns around electric ownership. Long range and rapid charging sit at the core of the vehicle’s design.
Fast Charging That Fits Real Life
The EX60 charges faster than any electric Volvo released before. A short stop replaces long waiting times.
Key charging facts
• Adds up to 340 km of range in 10 minutes
• Supports up to 400 kW DC fast charging
• Designed to perform consistently in all weather
• Includes a 10-year battery warranty for all customers
Charging time now aligns closely with traditional fuel stops, reducing trip planning friction.
SPA3 Platform Drives Efficiency
The EX60 debuts Volvo Cars’ new SPA3 electric architecture. This platform maximizes efficiency across motors, battery, and software systems. The result is an electric range comparable to combustion-powered vehicles, without tailpipe emissions.
Battery integration uses cell-to-body construction. The battery forms part of the car’s structure, reducing weight and energy loss. Volvo also develops its electric motors in-house, improving system-level efficiency.
Advanced Manufacturing Cuts Weight
The EX60 becomes Volvo’s first vehicle built using mega casting. This process replaces hundreds of small components with single high-precision castings. Fewer parts mean less weight. Lower weight translates directly into longer range and improved performance.
800-Volt System Enables Rapid Energy Flow
An 800-volt electrical architecture underpins the EX60’s charging performance. Volvo’s in-house software controls energy flow with high precision. Reduced heat generation and lighter materials allow sustained high charging speeds.
Smart Battery Management
Algorithms from Breathe Battery Technologies dynamically control how the battery accepts power. The system keeps the battery within its ideal operating window across temperature extremes. This approach supports faster charging, improved longevity, and stable performance year-round.
Lower Maintenance, Fewer Compromises
Electric drivetrains contain fewer moving components. The EX60 requires less frequent servicing than combustion vehicles. Combined with long range, rapid charging, and extended battery coverage, the EX60 positions itself as a practical electric vehicle without trade-offs.
