Volvo‘s upcoming fully electric EX60 model was leaked in images shared by the Norwegian newspaper Dagens Næringsliv, ahead of its unveiling scheduled for later this year.
As the fully electric version of its best-selling XC60 plug-in hybrid model, the EX60 will become the Swedish automaker’s first battery-electric vehicle (BEV) in the compact executive SUV segment.
The livestream event is set for Wednesday, January 21.
The new model joins Volvo‘s BEV portfolio, which includes the ES90, EX90, the EX40, the C40 and the EX30.
With the addition of the EX60, the Geely-backed brand will move a step closer to its target of a fully electric lineup by 2035.
EX60 Details
First teased last June, the EX60 SUV will be the first Volvo model to be built on the new SPA3 platform, which is “designed for longer range, efficiency and intelligent core computing” — according to the carmaker.
The SUV, set to be produced in the company’s Torslanda plant, will be equipped with a 400kW charger in an 800-volt electrical system.
It will offer a maximum WLTP range of 810 km – equivalent to 503 miles –, being capable of reaching 340 km (211 miles) in roughly ten minutes.
Volvo confirmed last week that the EX60 will be equipped with Google’s AI assistant Gemini, as well as the latest iteration of the Swedish company’s HuginCore, which “empowers the car to learn, grow, and add new features over time.”
The leaked images showed that the electric compact executive SUV will feature the updated Thor’s Hammer LED headlights, with its grille pulled lower.
The brand’s signature front lights were first introduced back in 2014 on the XC90 SUV by the former Senior Vice President of Design Thomas Ingenlath.
The former Polestar CEO will return to Volvo Cars as Chief Design Officer starting February 1.
The EX60 is set to be priced between 569,900 and 893,000 kr – $61,900-$97,000 –, and will be a direct competitor to Tesla‘s Model 7, BMW‘s iX3, and Mercedes-Benz‘s GLC Electric models.
