Volvo Cars has unveiled the EX60, an all-electric midsize SUV designed for the 2027 model year [1, 3].
The vehicle represents a strategic effort by Volvo to expand its electric SUV lineup and compete directly with rivals such as the BMW iX3 [2, 5].
Technical specifications for the EX60 vary across reports. Some sources said the vehicle can achieve a maximum driving range of up to 810 km [2], while others report a figure of 640 km [1]. A third report lists the range at 503 miles, which is approximately 809 km [4].
To reduce downtime during long trips, the SUV supports fast-charging capabilities of 400 kW [2]. This power output is intended to position the EX60 as a next-generation EV with high efficiency and strong performance [1, 2].
Pricing for the new model differs by market. In Canada, the base price is listed at $77,500 CAD [1]. For the U.S. market, the estimated price is around $60,000 USD [3].
The EX60 is part of a broader push by the company to transition its fleet toward fully electric options. By targeting the midsize SUV segment, Volvo aims to capture a larger share of the premium EV market, a sector seeing increased competition from both legacy automakers and new electric specialists [2, 5].

The launch of the EX60 signals Volvo's intent to aggressively scale its electric transition by filling a critical gap in the midsize luxury segment. While the discrepancy in reported range suggests that different battery configurations or testing standards may be in play, the high charging speed and competitive pricing targets indicate a strategy to lower the barriers to EV adoption for premium buyers.
