Volvo’s first‑generation electric SUV, the EX60, arrives as a $60,000‑priced alternative to the brand’s gasoline XC60. Built on the same silhouette as the three‑row EX90 but shrunken to a two‑row footprint, it slots between the compact EX30 and flagship EX90. The entry‑level P6 packs a single rear‑motor delivering 369 horsepower, while the top‑end P10 pushes 503 hp to all wheels, promising brisk acceleration and a range‑focused drivetrain.

The cabin features Tailored Wool Blend upholstery, with synthetic Nordico or leather alternatives. Physical steering‑wheel buttons replace the touch‑only knobs of the EX30 and EX90, though the wheel feels thin. Android Automotive powers infotainment, pairing Google Maps with Volvo’s HuginCore—a combined NVIDIA‑Qualcomm processor that enables OTA updates and future driver‑assist features. Early tests show a finicky digital key and a laggy Gemini voice assistant.

Driving the EX60 feels composed rather than exhilarating. The P6’s 369 hp rear‑motor and non‑adaptive suspension deliver smooth acceleration; the P10’s 503 hp dual‑motor adds an adaptive suspension that can be stiffened via the touchscreen, giving a modest edge in low‑grip conditions. Against rivals like BMW’s iX3 or Ford’s Mustang Mach‑E, Volvo offers comfort and safety but falls short on hands‑off autonomy.
