Volvo has launched its new electric SUV EX60 in Europe, which is based on the SPA3 platform. It is the electric variant of the XC60, offering a range of up to 810 km. It comes with three battery packs, two exterior themes, and a Cross Country variant. The EX60 also features modern amenities such as a 15-inch infotainment system, ADAS, and Google Gemini AI.

Volvo EX60 Exterior  Design

The design of the Volvo EX60 largely reflects the company's new EV design approach, and from the front, it somewhat resembles the larger EX30. At the front, it features a split headlamp setup, Thor's Hammer LED DRL signature, LED headlamps on both sides of the bumper, a closed-off grille finish, and a black skid plate at the bottom.

Its side profile has been kept smooth and clean. It features subtle character lines on the wheel arches and doors, and black cladding below the doors. Instead of traditional door handles, illuminated wing grip handles (mounted on the window line) have been provided.

Additionally, the wheel sizes range from 20 inches to 22 inches. The rear wheels are made slightly wider for better traction. At the back, there are slim LED taillights, a black strip above the tailgate, thick black cladding, and a thin silver strip on the rear bumper.

Volvo EX60 Bright and Dark Exterior Themes

EX60 will come in two exterior themes. Volvo has launched the EX60 in two themes, which are Bright and Dark themes. In the Bright theme, silver accents are given on the door sills and bumpers. Meanwhile, the Dark theme features a black finish on the exterior. These two themes are designed keeping in mind users who prefer different styles.

Volvo EX60 Higher ground clearance and off-road mode

A special version of the Volvo EX60, called Cross Country, has been launched, giving the SUV a more rugged character. It comes with 20mm higher ground clearance, stainless steel skid plates, matte black cladding, exclusive Frost Green color, unique interior theme and materials, Cross Country branding on the D-pillars and bumpers, and an off-road mode with adaptive air suspension.
