Volvo EX60 set to beat Tesla Model 3 and become Australia's EV range king

Volvo's EX60 will offer the longest-range electric SUV in Australia with 810 km WLTP, featuring advanced AI tech from Google, Nvidia, and Qualcomm for a seamless driving experience.

  • On January 21, Volvo announces the EX60 electric SUV with a preliminary 810km WLTP range, ahead of its Australian arrival later this year.
  • Volvo's HuginCore combines Google Gemini for conversational AI with Qualcomm Snapdragon Cockpit Platform and NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Orin plus DriveOS for driver-assist and cockpit functions.
  • Built on the SPA3 architecture, the Volvo EX60 claims to handle 500 trillion TOPS and can add up to 340km in a 10-minute 400kW charge, though such speeds aren’t available in Australia.
  • Volvo's claim would unseat the Tesla Model 3 Long Range as Australia’s longest-range EV, and Volvo plans a complimentary four-year unlimited data package despite 18.6% sales decline.
  • On January 21, Volvo continues slow details release and promises a `seamless` and `no lag` system, though some charging benefits rely on 400kW speeds unavailable in Australia.
