How we test cars

Having a USP is often helpful when entering a new market, and the Volvo EX60 has a pretty strong one: 503 miles. Yep, that’s the official range of this premium electric SUV (provided you order it with the biggest of its three battery options), meaning it can go farther between charges than any rival.

This is partly because the battery in question is, well, big. But it’s also down to the new underpinnings developed for the EX60 (and the electric Volvos that will follow it). Together, these developments are said to bring significant weight savings, which in turn improves efficiency.

Volvo EX60 video review

Then again, Volvo really did need to pull out all the stops with this car: it’s not only the electric sibling to the XC60 – the Swedish marque’s best-selling car of all time – but it also competes with the five-star BMW iX3 and Mercedes GLC Electric, as well as the hugely popular Tesla Model Y.

Verdict

Star Rating Red Star Rating Red Star Rating Red Star Rating Red Star Rating Red

The new EX60 is the best electric Volvo to date – and one of the best electric SUVs money can buy. It’s comfortable, quiet, practical and has a class-leading range between charges – especially in forthcoming P12 form. We’ve only driven the P10 version at present, but that’s still fantastic. We’d recommend the entry-level Plus trim, because it’s reasonably priced and comes with plenty of standard kit.

Strengths

Weaknesses

How fast is it and which motor is best?

There are three versions of the Volvo EX60 to choose from. So far, we’ve only driven the P10 model: it has two electric motors (for four-wheel drive) and a total of 503bhp. That’s enough for 0-62mph in 4.6sec, which is competitive with a BMW iX3 50 xDrive and Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD.

The 671bhp P12 (due in the first half of 2027) looks even more mighty; it’ll rocket to 62mph faster than any version of the BMW iX3 and Mercedes GLC Electric, though the Porsche Macan Electric GTS is quicker still.

If you’d rather not wait much longer for your EX60, the P6 is already on sale right now, with deliveries scheduled for early next year. It serves as the entry point into the range, despite offering all the performance most buyers could ever want or need. 


Is it agile and is the ride comfortable?

As standard, the P10 comes with an adaptive suspension which can be adjusted depending on your chosen mode.

The softest setting delivers a ride that’s supple and wafty, and well-suited to both town and motorway cruising. However, this can make the EX60 feel floaty along undulating country roads; switching to the ‘standard’ mode makes the EX60 feel more planted, but without compromising on comfort. 

advertisement

scroll for more

You might assume the stiffest ‘firm’ mode would turn the EX60 into a somewhat agile sports SUV, but it doesn’t. It’s competent on a twisty road, but lots of body lean and heavy nose-diving under harsh braking mean the EX60 isn’t all that fun to drive – certainly not as much as a BMW iX3. 

What’s more, the EX60 has really light steering, which, combined with the small steering wheel, can make you feel quite disconnected from the front wheels. It’s similar to the Tesla Model Y in this regard, though the iX3’s set-up is far more confidence-inspiring than either rival. It’s fair to say that the EX60 is much happier being driven gently than jostled around corners.

The forthcoming P12 will have the same adaptive suspension system, while the entry-level P6 has regular (or so-called ‘passive’) suspension. 

There will also be a Cross Country version with air suspension. By default, this model sits 20mm higher than regular EX60s for improved ground clearance, and you’ll have the option of jacking the suspension up by a further 20mm if you need to venture off-road or wade through deep water.

Is it quiet and how easy is it to drive smoothly?

Even on the largest wheels available (22in), the EX60 is supremely quiet and produces almost no road or wind noise. The result is a more relaxing drive than many rivals, including the BMW iX3 and Mercedes GLC Electric, and one of the quietest cars we’ve tested in recent memory. 

As we mentioned, the EX60 isn’t the most fun car to drive, but thanks to the light controls and an accelerator response that isn’t too sharp, it is at least super easy to drive. If we had to nitpick a flaw, the brakes can feel inconsistent at times, which means the iX3 and GLC Electric are smoother to bring to a stop. 


What’s the range like, and how quickly can it charge?

While only the forthcoming P12 offers that headline 503-mile official range, the entry-level P6 is still capable of a respectable 379 miles between charges.

This question is for testing whether or not you are a human visitor and to prevent automated spam submissions.

However, things may be slightly different when it comes to real-world range. You see, when we tested the EX60 P10 AWD against the BMW iX3 50xDrive, Mercedes GLC 400 Electric, and Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD, we saw a maximum possible return of 350 miles (using mostly motorways for our test). That’s 40 miles fewer than the GLC, and though it is 20 miles further than the Model Y, that car does have a smaller battery (75 kWh usable capacity versus 91 kWh).

As for charging speed, the P6 can accept a peak rate of 320kW, while the twin-motor versions allow up to 370kW. As a result, every EX60 can be topped up from 10-80% in under 20 minutes – assuming you’re plugged in to a powerful enough charger. 

I wouldn’t be surprised if the Cross Country model turned out to be both the most comfortable EX60 and the best to drive, thanks to the range of settings its air suspension allows.

How to test drive a car

There’s no substitute for a test drive in a new car. Take it on a variety of roads and surfaces to ensure it measures up.

Interior

Star Rating Red Star Rating Red Star Rating Red Star Rating Red Star Rating Grey

Volvo EX60 interior

Strengths

Weaknesses

What does the interior look like and is it well made?

Modern Volvos tend to look neat and classy inside, and the EX60 is no exception. You can choose between light brown, dark grey, and light grey faux-leather seat upholstery – if you go for the latter, the lower half of the dashboard, headlining, and even the inside of the steering wheel rim are colour-matched. That helps create a light and airy feel, with plenty of wow factor.

advertisement

scroll for more

There’s a real wool interior option, too, and if you’re going for range-topping Ultra trim, you can pay extra for genuine Nappa leather. Either way, the EX60’s interior features plenty of upmarket materials and feels solidly screwed together.

The downside is that physical buttons have been almost entirely banished from its dashboard, while the gear selector is a stalk behind the steering wheel. 


Is the driving position comfortable and is it easy to see out?

In the EX60, you sit about as high up from the road (albeit closer to the floor of the car) as you do in the conventionally-powered Volvo XC60. So, like in the BMW iX3 and Mercedes GLC Electric, you have a really commanding view of the road ahead. 

Better still, large rear windows mean that you’ll have no issues when it comes to visibility over your shoulder or out of the rear. To help you park the fairly large EX60, every version comes with front and rear parking sensors, along with a surround-view camera.

Volvo makes some of the best front seats in the business, and that form hasn’t been forgotten with the EX60. Its front seats are both snug and supportive, with our only demerit being that they could do with slightly more side bolstering. 

advertisement

scroll for more

To help you find your perfect driving position, every EX60 comes with electric front seats and adjustable lumbar support – the latter being a cost option on most versions of the iX3. 

Another interesting feature is its digital driver display, which you view over the steering wheel, rather than through it. This setup is actually quite similar to Peugeot’s iCockpit system, but is much better implemented. Where the iCockpit can only be seen at specific seat heights (which is a pain if you’re either really short or tall), Volvo’s unit is laid out in a far more accommodating way. 


Are the dashboard and infotainment system easy to use?

Volvo typically uses portrait-oriented infotainment touchscreens, but for the EX60, it’s gone landscape. This change means the most commonly used functions and icons now sit closer to the driver, making for easier access. 

The EX60’s 15in touchscreen is slightly smaller than the 17.9in one you’ll find in the BMW iX3, and a whole league away from the 39.1in Hyperscreen you can spec into a Mercedes GLC Electric. The Volvo loses further points for usability here, because while its screen does feature sharp graphics, the system isn’t quite as responsive as those found in its rivals, and the various sub-menus can get confusing. 

advertisement

scroll for more

At least it’s a Google-based system, which means you get built-in Google Maps, with EV-specific features like suggested charging stops, and Google Assistant, to help out with a plethora of commands. The latter is especially important because the EX60 – like many modern electric cars – buries most of its basic functions deep within the menus.

Take the mirrors and steering wheel adjustment as an example: you have to go into the touchscreen, find the correct section, choose which item you want to adjust, and then make said adjustments using the buttons on the steering wheel. Now, you’ll likely only do that once for the steering wheel, but having to do that to adjust your mirrors in the heat of the moment, on a single-track country road or when parallel parking on a busy road, is a really unnecessary faff. 

On a more positive note, every EX60 comes with an excellent sound system. The entry-level gets a 21-speaker Bose Stereo, while upgrading to Ultra unlocks a marvellous 28-speaker Bowers & Wilkins unit.

I really like the interior of the EX60, especially with the lighter-themed upholstery, but the usability issues are a real shame. Even tiny adjustments are inconvenient and could have been much easier with a single button.

Strengths

Weaknesses

How much space does it have for people?

The Volvo EX60 is around 10cm longer than the petrol-powered Volvo XC60. Combined with superior packaging – and the fact that electric motors take up less room than petrol engines – that means it’s quite a bit roomier inside; even really tall people will be perfectly comfortable.

advertisement

scroll for more

You actually have more rear space in the EX60 than you do in either the BMW iX3 or Mercedes GLC Electric, meaning that even our tallest roadtester (who’s 6ft 3in) has more than enough space to stretch out. 

The width of the EX60 means you’ll easily fit three adults in the rear, while the totally flat floor gives the central rear passenger more foot space. The rear seats can even be reclined electrically so your back-seat passengers can have a snooze on long journeys.

Unfortunately you can’t have the EX60 as a seven-seater, like you can with the Tesla Model Y, and while the Model Y’s third row is tight, it’s worth considering if you want a seven-seater that’s not quite as large as the Kia EV9. 


How much room is there for luggage?

The EX60’s main boot has a 523-litre capacity, making it competitive with the BMW iX3 and slightly down on the Mercedes GLC Electric. True, the Tesla Model Y officially gives you 854 litres, but this number is a tad misleading because it includes the space above the parcel shelf, rather than simply below it.

To make those figures a little more relevant, we managed to fit nine carry-on-sized suitcases into the EX60’s boot and an additional one beneath the boot floor. That’s two more than the iX3 and one more than the GLC Electric (it’s worth noting that the GLC’s larger frunk makes up for that difference).

When you need to cart around more luggage, you can fold the rear seatbacks down in a 40/20/40 split by pressing buttons on the walls of the boot.

You can fit one more carry-on-sized suitcase under the EX60’s bonnet, taking the total to a very impressive 11. By comparison, the GLC’s frunk can take two suitcases (so it matches the EX60’s total count), while the iX3’s small frunk won’t fit much more than the charging cables. 

I appreciate the fact that there’s space beneath the boot floor for the parcel shelf, so you don’t have to leave it behind or stash it in the rear footwell when transporting bulkier loads.

How much does it cost and what equipment do you get?

Regardless of which Volvo EX60 you go for, it won’t be particularly cheap. Indeed, even the entry-level version will cost you more as an outright purchase than the cheapest versions of the BMW iX3 and Mercedes GLC Electric, while the Tesla Model Y – at the time of writing – starts at around £15k less.

Being an electric vehicle does mean the EX60 will make a great choice for company car drivers, because it sits in a low benefit-in-kind (BIK) tax bracket.

Volvo has also been very generous with standard equipment for the high asking price. The cheaper of two trim levels (called Plus) comes with 20in alloys, a panoramic glass roof, three-zone climate control, heated front and rear seats and a powered tailgate.

That’s the version we’d recommend, but if you’re interested, the one-up Ultra trim adds 21in alloy wheels, brighter LED headlights, an electrochromic glass roof (which means you can adjust the level of shading), and that epic Bowers & Wilkins sound system. 


Is it reliable and how long is the warranty?

Since it’s still a brand-new model, we don’t have any reliability data as yet for the EX60. However, Volvo didn’t do brilliantly in the 2025 What Car? Reliability Survey, finishing 21st (out of 30 brands) in the overall manufacturer league table. That puts it above Audi, Mercedes and Land Rover, but below BMW in sixth and Tesla seventh.

scroll for more

Every EX60 comes with a three-year/60,000-mile warranty, matching the length of the packages offered by BMW and Mercedes, but not their unlimited mileage perk. 

As with most electric cars, the drive battery is covered by a separate eight-year/100,000-mile warranty.


How safe is it, and is it easy to steal?

Volvo has created many safety innovations over the years, from the three-point seatbelt and curtain airbags to blind-spot monitoring. It’s come up with another for the EX60: the multi-adaptive safety belt.

Unlike conventional seatbelts, which can adjust the force that’s applied to suit small, medium and large occupants, this new design has 11 profiles to further reduce the risk of injury in an accident. There’s the potential for Volvo to make this even more refined in the future, too, with remote software updates. 

This technology is currently only available for the front-seat passengers, but in time, it will be introduced to those in the rear.

The EX60 also debuts a new type of Pilot Assist Plus that, at speeds of up to 80mph, is said to steer and assist more accurately with lane changes than in any previous Volvo before it.

FAQs

How much is the Volvo EX60?

No matter which version you choose, it isn’t cheap and will cost you more than the cheapest BMW iX3 and Mercedes GLC Electric – just bear in mind that it gets a bigger battery than those cars. 

Is the EX60 a good car?

Yes, it’s a very good car. It’s one of the most comfortable electric SUVs out there, has loads of interior space, is well-equipped, and feels very upmarket. Aside from some usability issues inside, it’s excellent. 

Which is better, the EX60 or the GLC?

While the EX60 is excellent, it compromises things like being great to drive in order to be more comfortable. The Mercedes GLC Electric finds a better balance in many ways, making it the superior all-rounder.

Is the Volvo EX60 fully electric?

Yes, the EX60 is a pure electric car. It’s the first Volvo to use the brand’s new SPA3 platform, which was designed exclusively for EVs, and is said to avoid the compromises of earlier electric Volvos.
