2027 Volvo EX60 Cross Country
By Lorenzo Bianchi January 22, 2026
The EX60 is Volvo’s first entry into the largest global electric SUV segment, with up to 810 km of range.
Fast-charging capability allows up to 340 km of range to be added in ten minutes under stated conditions.
Built on the new SPA3 architecture, the EX60 emphasizes safety, software, and efficiency.
Positioning an Electric Core SUV
The 2027 Volvo EX60 arrives as a fully electric midsize SUV intended to anchor the brand’s future lineup. While the Cross Country naming traditionally signals added versatility within Volvo’s range, specific hardware or design distinctions for an EX60 Cross Country variant are not detailed in the official material and remain [Unverified]. What is clear is that the EX60 itself is positioned to compete at scale, targeting the largest electric vehicle segment worldwide and expanding Volvo Cars’ addressable market.
Exterior Form Guided by Aerodynamics
In its standard form, the EX60 follows Volvo’s Scandinavian design principles, with proportions shaped by efficiency rather than ornament. A quoted drag coefficient of 0.26 is a result of a low front, a sloping roofline, and tapered body sides. This planted and deliberate stance prioritizes stability and range over visual aggression. These surfaces indicate that the vehicle was designed to fly smoothly, as seen by its class-leading range figures.
Daily Use and Interior Design
The EX60's design prioritizes quiet operation. A long wheelbase and flat floor provide for more back legroom and a roomy luggage compartment with many of storage alternatives for daily use.
Materials are described as natural and high-end, reinforcing Volvo’s preference for restrained, tactile interiors. A 28-speaker Bowers & Wilkins audio system is offered, including headrest speakers in all four main seats, alongside Apple Music with Dolby Atmos support, subject to market availability.
Powertrains, Range, and Charging
Volvo confirms three electric powertrain options. The P12 AWD variant delivers up to 810 km of range under WLTP testing, while the P10 AWD reaches up to 660 km. A rear-wheel-drive P6 version is rated at up to 620 km. Charging performance is positioned as a key advantage, with the EX60 capable of adding up to 340 km of range in ten minutes when connected to a 400 kW fast charger, based on testing of the P12 variant. All range and charging figures are preliminary and dependent on conditions.
Software, Safety, and Market Context
Built on the SPA3 electric architecture and powered by Volvo’s HuginCore system, the EX60 is described as the brand’s most intelligent car to date. It introduces Google’s Gemini AI assistant and supports over-the-air updates, allowing the vehicle to improve over time. Safety remains central, with a strengthened boron-steel safety cage and Volvo’s multi-adaptive safety belt designed to personalize occupant protection. Production begins this spring in Sweden, with European deliveries starting in summer and the US to follow later.
