Volvo will launch the EX60 electric SUV in Brazil between October and November 2026 [1, 3, 4].
The arrival of the EX60 marks a critical step in Volvo's electrification strategy as it seeks to replace the hybrid XC60 with a fully electric alternative. This move reflects a broader industry shift toward zero-emission luxury vehicles in the South American market.
The initial model arriving this year is rated at 510 cv [1]. The vehicle features an 800 V electrical architecture [5], which supports faster charging and improved efficiency. According to estimates, the EX60 will offer a driving range of up to 660 km [5].
Volvo plans to expand the performance capabilities of the lineup following the initial release. A higher-performance version with 680 cv is slated for 2027 [2].
While official pricing has not been finalized, estimates place the cost of the vehicle around R$ 500,000 [5]. The EX60 is designed to maintain Volvo's presence in the mid-size luxury SUV segment while transitioning away from internal combustion and hybrid powertrains [2, 3].
“The initial model arriving this year is rated at 510 cv.”
The introduction of the EX60 in Brazil signals Volvo's commitment to a fully electric fleet in a market that has traditionally relied on hybrid transitions. By utilizing 800 V architecture and offering high horsepower, Volvo is positioning the EX60 not just as an eco-friendly alternative, but as a performance competitor to established luxury SUVs.
