"The EX60 sits on Volvo's most advanced architecture to date, SPA3, and it promises 400 miles of range on the EPA cycle. Volvo wants to make things right after the messy launches of the EX90 and EX30 EVs, which were riddled with software gremlins and unfinished features that frustrated owners. Now, the Swedish automaker that used to be a synonym for reliability and dependability is giving it all in a new push."
"The new EX60, which will be revealed on January 21, boasts a 400-mile estimated range, which is not yet EPA-rated, but the company said it used the EPA procedure to come up with this figure. European customers should expect a WLTP range of 810 kilometers. To make things even more interesting, these range estimates apply to the all-wheel drive variant, which is mostly unheard of. By comparison, the longest-range Tesla Model Y, the Premium Rear-Wheel Drive, is rated for 357 miles."
The Volvo EX60 is an electric crossover built on the SPA3 architecture and positioned to compete with the Tesla Model Y, BMW iX3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC EV. The EX60 promises a 400-mile estimated range using EPA procedures and a WLTP estimate of 810 kilometers for Europe; these figures apply to the all-wheel-drive variant. Volvo says manufacturing advancements on the assembly line enabled the long range, making the EX60 the longest-range EV the company has produced. Volvo aims to recover reputational trust after EX90 and EX30 launches were affected by software gremlins and unfinished features. The EX60 will be revealed on January 21.
