What is the 2027 Volvo EX60?

The 2027 Volvo EX60 is Volvo's new large 100% electric SUV, designed for families who want to transition to electric power without compromising on space or range. At 4.80 m long, nearly 1.91 m wide, and with a wheelbase of approximately 2.97 m, it sits clearly above the EX30 and EX40, both in terms of interior roominess and road presence.

Technically, it debuts the new SPA3 electric platform, an 800V architecture that allows for both large batteries (up to approximately 112–117 kWh depending on the version) and ultra-fast charging. It supports up to 300 to 370 kW on DC fast chargers, recovering over 300 km of range in about ten minutes. Depending on the powertrain (P6 RWD, P10 or P12 AWD), power ranges from approximately 370 hp to over 670 hp, with an announced EPA range of up to 640 km* for top-tier versions.

5 Questions to Ask About the 2027 Volvo EX60

Now that you know more about the 2027 Volvo EX60, let's dive into the questions most frequently asked of our team members.

Question 1: Can I finally drive from Montreal to Quebec City in winter?

In Quebec, distances between major cities are significant. The 2027 EX60 will be the first Volvo vehicle to offer over 500 km of announced range. Even with winter range reduction, the P10 version should allow for a trip from Montreal to Quebec City in a single leg, without intermediate charging, under realistic conditions.

Question 2: Is it true it charges in 10 minutes?

Thanks to the 800V architecture, charging speed is the major asset of this model. The battery can handle power levels up to approximately 400 kW. Depending on the station, you can recover hundreds of kilometers of range in about 10 minutes, which is a game-changer for family travel.

Question 3: Which powertrain for 2027?

For the 2027 model year (MY27), the EX60 first arrives with the P10 powertrain (dual-motor, All-Wheel Drive). This is the ideal core of the lineup. Starting in 2028, the P12 version will be added for those seeking even more lightning-fast acceleration.

Question 4: "Is there a real dashboard this time?"

Yes! Volvo has listened to its customers. The EX60 features a dedicated driver display for speed and navigation. The system is powered by Google’s Gemini AI for high-performance voice commands and regular over-the-air (OTA) updates.

Question 5: When can I expect delivery if I order now?

The first deliveries are scheduled for Fall 2026. Ordering now places you at the top of the list for the 2026 back-to-school season. Lead times may vary based on configuration, so it is recommended to confirm details with the Volvo Cars Saint-Léonard team.
