The 2027 Volvo EX60 is the most significant Volvo launch in a generation — an all-new, fully electric midsize SUV built on a next-generation platform that rethinks everything from the battery to the computing architecture. For Huntington, Northport, and Commack families ready to make the move to electric, the EX60 is a compelling and well-rounded answer.
Bottom Line: The 2027 Volvo EX60 delivers up to 322 miles of range, 800V fast charging, and genuine Volvo safety and refinement in a fresh, software-defined package that sets the standard for the class.
- Two trims (Plus and Ultra) and two powertrains (RWD and AWD) cover a wide range of priorities and budgets
- 800V charging architecture means significantly faster DC fast charging than most competitors
- Volvo’s most advanced safety system ever comes standard — radar, cameras, and interior sensing work together continuously
What Makes the EX60 Different
Built on an All-New Platform
The EX60 is the first Volvo built on the third generation of the Scalable Platform Architecture — a ground-up design optimized for the electric era. It uses megacasting technology to reduce the number of body components, a structural battery pack integrated directly into the chassis, and an 800V electrical architecture throughout.
These aren’t marketing checkboxes. The structural battery lowers the center of gravity and reduces overall weight compared to a conventional battery-on-frame design. The 800V system enables DC fast charging at rates that meaningfully reduce charging stops on longer drives between Huntington and New York City.
The car is also software-defined in a genuine sense. A single Nvidia Orin X core computer manages the entire vehicle, and Volvo delivers regular over-the-air updates — the EX60 you buy today will gain features over time without a service visit.
Core Computing and Display Architecture
The EX60 introduces a new display concept to Volvo’s lineup. A 15-inch curved OLED center display handles primary infotainment and vehicle controls, oriented in landscape to feel more immersive than the portrait tablets common in competing vehicles.
A separate 11.4-inch forward driver display sits in a smaller steering wheel designed for better sightlines to the road. The most frequently used controls are positioned on the side of the display closest to the driver. Google Built-In is included for four years, with Google Maps, Google Play Store, and Google Assistant integrated natively.
Powertrain Options: RWD and AWD
P6 RWD — Range-First Choice
The base powertrain delivers 369 horsepower, 354 lb-ft of torque, and a 0–60 time of 5.7 seconds from a single rear motor. The 80 kWh usable battery provides up to 307 miles of EPA-estimated range — enough for nearly all Long Island driving patterns with weekly charging.
The P6 is the right choice for single-car households doing most of their driving on local roads and highways in Suffolk County. It is not under-powered — 369 horsepower is genuinely quick — and the range is exceptional for everyday use.
P10 AWD — Performance and Confidence
The dual-motor AWD system produces 503 horsepower and 524 lb-ft of torque, reaching 60 mph in 4.4 seconds. The larger 92 kWh usable battery extends range to an EPA-estimated 322 miles despite the added motor. AWD delivers added confidence on rain-slick North Shore roads and in light snow.
The AWD premium is well justified for buyers who prioritize performance, want the added traction security year-round, or plan regular highway trips where the extra range buffer matters.
Trim Levels: Plus and Ultra
Plus — The Complete Package
The EX60 Plus includes the full 15-inch OLED display, Google Built-In, Pilot Assist adaptive cruise with steer assist, 360-degree camera, 3-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, power front seats, inductive smartphone charging, heat pump, and Bose premium audio. Exterior lighting is Matrix-design LED headlights.
Seating surfaces are Nordico — Volvo’s premium synthetic material produced through environmentally sustainable processes — available in Charcoal, Cardamom, or Dawn colorways.
The Plus rides on 20-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels and includes Park Assist on all four sides, passive entry, and a power-operated tailgate. Ventilated front seats, an electrochromic panoramic roof, and larger 21-inch wheels are available as options on the Plus.
Ultra — Full Specification
The Ultra trim upgrades to Bowers and Wilkins premium audio, High-Definition Pixel headlights, Active Chassis for adaptive ride control, and 21-inch diamond-cut wheels as standard. Front seating surfaces use ventilated Nappa leather — available in Charcoal, Cardamom, or Dawn — with a Dark Rubus Fused Ash Wood inlay.
The Rye Tailored Wool Blend is an Ultra-exclusive upholstery option that brings genuine textile craftsmanship to the cabin. The Ultra also includes heated rear seats and heated steering wheel as standard, where Plus buyers add these as part of a climate package.
Optional 22-inch wheels are available on the Ultra in two finishes — a classic diamond-cut open-spoke design and a blacked-out version for a more aggressive look.
"The EX60 is unlike anything we've seen arrive at this dealership. Customers who test drive it come back talking about the acceleration, the display layout, and how quiet and planted it feels — it reframes what they thought an electric Volvo would be."

Safety Technology
The EX60 represents the highest level of Volvo active safety ever offered. An array of exterior sensors — radars, cameras, and ultrasonic sensors — creates a continuous 360-degree real-time picture of the vehicle’s surroundings. Combined with interior sensing, the system also monitors driver state and provides assistance only when it is actually needed.
Standard safety features include Pilot Assist, Blind Spot Information System with steer assist and cross-traffic autobrake, collision avoidance for vehicles, cyclists, pedestrians, and large animals, run-off road mitigation, door opening alert, multi-adaptive safety belt, and WHIPS whiplash protection for front seats.
The Ultra adds laminated rear side windows and rear window for improved acoustic refinement and impact performance.
Color and Personalization
Eight exterior colors are available across both trims: Crystal White Pearl, Onyx Black Metallic, Denim Blue Metallic, Vapour Grey Metallic, Sand Dune Metallic, Aurora Silver Metallic, Forest Lake Metallic, and Heather Bronze (arriving later in the model year). All colors are available with all upholstery options.
A Dark Theme Exterior package is available on both Plus and Ultra, adding a blacked-out treatment to exterior trim elements for a more distinctive presence on the road.
Charging Infrastructure on Long Island
The EX60 uses a NACS (North American Charging Standard) port — compatible with Tesla Superchargers and the expanding network of NACS-native public chargers. The 800V system charges significantly faster on compatible DC fast chargers than 400V competitors at the same charger power level.
For Huntington-area buyers, home charging via a Level 2 charger (240V) handles the vast majority of daily needs. At 19.2 kW onboard charging capacity, a full overnight charge from a low state is realistic on a standard home installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the EX60 range compare to competitors? The EX60’s EPA-estimated range of up to 322 miles (AWD) and 307 miles (RWD) puts it above most rivals in the segment. For reference, many competing midsize electric SUVs deliver 250–290 miles in AWD configuration.
Does the EX60 support DC fast charging? Yes — and the 800V system makes it meaningfully faster than 400V competitors at the same charger power level. The NACS port gives access to Tesla Superchargers and the growing NACS fast-charge network.
What’s the difference between Plus and Ultra on the EX60? Plus covers the core EX60 experience with Bose audio, Matrix LED headlights, and Nordico seating. Ultra adds Bowers and Wilkins audio, High-Definition Pixel headlights, Active Chassis, Nappa leather or Wool Blend upholstery, and 21-inch wheels as standard.
Is all-wheel drive worth choosing on the EX60? For most Long Island buyers, the AWD P10 is worth considering: it adds 15 miles of range (more battery), 134 additional horsepower, and meaningfully better traction in rain or snow — all for a predictable premium.
Can I get Apple CarPlay in the EX60? Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity are coming to the EX60. Google Built-In via Android Automotive is included as standard for four years from the date of purchase.
