Volvo is preparing to launch the EX60 electric crossover, a move positioned as a meaningful step toward more attainable electric mobility. According to company CEO Håkan Samuelsson, the model is intended to narrow the price gap with combustion cars while keeping comfort and everyday practicality intact. If that promise holds, it could land right where most families are looking.The EX60 will be built on the new SPA3 architecture, developed specifically for electric powertrains. The platform integrates the battery into the body’s structural frame, which trims weight, boosts rigidity, and liberates extra interior space. This rethought layout is also designed to make production more profitable and pricing more competitive—an approach that usually pays off both in dynamics and packaging.The model will use Volvo’s in-house electric motors and batteries, with improvements in energy density and efficiency. The company also plans to introduce Megacasting, producing large body sections as single pieces of metal. The EX60 is slated to debut in the second half of 2026. If executed as planned, these measures should help meet the cost targets without dulling the user experience.
