Volvo EX60 EV confirmed for debut in early 2026

The Volvo EX60 will debut early next year, the Swedish carmaker has confirmed in a Facebook post. This follows the upcoming model’s teaser in March this year ahead of the ES90 unveiling, and carmaker has previously revealed that the EX60 – the EV sibling to the XC60 – will be built on the third-generation Scalable Product Architecture (SPA3).

Its use of the SPA3 platform is claimed to offer not just greater core computing power thanks to the Volvo Cars Superset, but also greater scalability and lower investment costs. The SPA3 platform is “100% electric and 100% Volvo Cars,” the carmaker’s chief engineering and technology officer told Autocar, rather than a shared Geely group platform as with the SEA platform of the EX30.

“Because it’s 100% electric, we’ve been able to remove all the old constraints of the combustion engine. We very much took a first-principles approach to it. You will see the highest level of supremely well-integrated technology coming together in these products,” Bell said.

The Volvo EX60 is expected to be similar in size to the 2025 Volvo XC60

The EX60 has also been revealed to enter production next year, and the battery-electric model will complement the XC60 in the brand’s line-up as the latter received a significant update for the 2026 model year. Given its positioning, the EX60 is expected to be similar in size to the XC60, and draw styling elements from its battery-electric stablemates the EX90 and EX30.

There has yet to be any further new details on the EX60, though the upcoming BEV can be expected to have some features trickled down from the ES90 including an 800-volt electrical architecture, which enables DC charging at over 300 kW for the crossover sedan.
