The new Volvo EX60 P10 AWD has been tested in the Alsace region of France, covering roads in the Vosges mountains and German highways. This electric SUV, manufactured in Torslanda, Sweden, was evaluated by Volvo France as part of its national testing program. The vehicle is built on the SPA3 platform, which will also be used for the Polestar 7. It includes advanced features like "Megacasting," a method of manufacturing that reduces weight, and "Cell to body" battery technology, which integrates battery cells directly into the vehicle's structure. The HuginCore system, which manages safety and entertainment features, uses a central computing unit from Nvidia and a processor from Qualcomm. These innovations help reduce the vehicle's weight by nearly 130 kg. The Volvo EX60 is available in three versions: the P6 with 374 horsepower and an 80 kWh battery, the P10 AWD with 510 horsepower and a 91 kWh battery, and the P12 AWD with 680 horsepower and an 112 kWh battery. The tested P10 AWD model has a 660 km range and can charge from 10% to 80% in 16 minutes. During the test, the vehicle was limited to a maximum speed of 180 km/h, achieving 0 to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds. It was driven on German highways, where it maintained speeds significantly above the legal limit in France for extended distances. The vehicle is noted for its comfort and excellent noise insulation, effectively reducing road and wind noise. The Volvo EX60 has a stable energy consumption of 36 kWh per 100 km, thanks to a low drag coefficient of 0.26. This is achieved through features like active shutters on the front of the car, a flat underbody, and contoured door handles. During the test, the battery was charged from 5% to 80%, taking 17 minutes and 10 seconds with an average power of 245.28 kW. The charging curve peaked at 380 kW when the battery reached 42%, then dropped to 113 kW once 80% was achieved. This confirmed the 16-minute charging time from 10% to 80% as stated in the technical specifications. The Volvo EX60 offers a bright and spacious interior with a small-diameter steering wheel and a dashboard with minimal physical buttons. It has a trunk capacity of 523 liters and a front trunk of 58 liters. The EX60 P10 AWD starts at 69,500 euros for the Plus trim and goes up to 76,400 euros for the Ultra version. It is priced lower than similar models from German manufacturers such as the BMW iX3 50 xDrive, Mercedes GLC 400, and Audi Q6 e-tron. With its strong performance and advanced features, the Volvo EX60 is positioned as a serious competitor in the electric SUV market.
