Watch the 2027 Volvo EX60 Global Reveal Livestream
Volvo is poised to unveil the highly anticipated EX60 electric crossover today in Stockholm, Sweden. This event marks a critical juncture for the automaker, which has faced challenges in its early transition to electric and software-defined vehicles. The livestream of the event can be viewed on Filmogaz.com, starting at 12 p.m. Eastern Time and 6 p.m. Central European Time.
Key Features of the Volvo EX60
The EX60 is marketed as Volvo’s most advanced vehicle to date. It will compete directly with other electric models, including the BMW iX3, Mercedes-Benz GLC EV, and Tesla Model Y. Notably, the EX60 leverages the new SPA3 architecture, which is a significant upgrade from the previous SPA2 platform that supported the EX90.
Performance Expectations
- Class-Leading Range: The all-wheel-drive version of the EX60 is expected to offer up to 400 miles on the EPA cycle.
- Competitive Edge: If confirmed, this range would exceed the Tesla Model Y’s current ratings of 330-350 miles.
As of 2026, range and charging capabilities are largely addressed challenges in the industry. However, the real test for Volvo lies in delivering a genuinely software-defined vehicle. This includes ensuring that updates improve the vehicle over time, feature completeness upon release, and a user-friendly experience free of the need for beta testing.
Lessons from the Past
The rollout of the EX90 was marred by numerous issues, including problematic software, unresponsive screens, and unexpected power losses. Anders Bell, Volvo’s Chief Technology Officer, acknowledged these shortcomings and indicated that enhancements planned for the SPA3 architecture should have been included in the previous iteration.
With the EX60, Volvo has the opportunity to demonstrate that it has learned from its previous mistakes. Successfully integrating hardware and software is crucial for regaining consumer confidence and advancing in the competitive electric vehicle market.
For Volvo’s future and the broader electric vehicle landscape, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Fans and potential buyers eagerly await the full reveal and additional details following today’s livestream.
