Volvo's new electric SUV just beat its own estimate. The EPA has certified the range-topping 2027 EX60 P10 AWD at up to 330 miles on a charge — higher than the 322 miles Volvo initially projected — as the automaker's first SPA3-based, NACS-equipped EV heads toward U.S. deliveries.
Volvo just got some good news from an unlikely source: government paperwork. The EPA has officially certified the range-topping 2027 Volvo EX60 P10 AWD at up to 330 miles on a single charge — beating the 322-mile figure Volvo itself had projected before certification. It's a modest 2.4% bump, but it lands at a good time, just as the Swedish automaker's newest electric SUV prepares for its first U.S. customer deliveries.
The EX60 P10 AWD is Volvo's current range-topper in the U.S. lineup, and the official EPA sticker now reads 330 miles for versions riding on 20- or 21-inch wheels. Step up to the larger, flashier 22-inch wheels, and that number drops to 312 miles — a fairly typical trade-off between wheel size and efficiency. Either way, it's better than the 322-mile estimate Volvo had been quoting ahead of certification, giving the brand a small but real marketing edge as it heads into a crowded field of luxury electric SUVs.
Volvo is calling the EX60 P10 AWD's range "the longest electric driving range of any Volvo car sold in the U.S. market to date." That title won't last forever — a more powerful, longer-range P12 AWD version is coming later, with Volvo projecting around 400 miles of range from a larger battery — but for now, the P10 is the one to beat in Volvo's own showroom.
The EX60 is the first Volvo built on the company's new SPA3 architecture, which brings an 800-volt electrical system to the lineup for the first time. Volvo says the platform supports charging speeds up to 370 kilowatts, capable of adding roughly 165 miles of range in just 10 minutes on a strong enough DC fast charger, with a 10-to-80% charging session taking about 16 minutes.
The EX60 is also the first Volvo sold with a native North American Charging Standard (NACS) port built in — no adapter required. That gives owners direct access to more than 29,000 Tesla Supercharger stations across the U.S. and Canada, on top of the growing number of non-Tesla networks that support NACS.
| Trim | Motor | Power | 0-60 mph | Starting Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| P6 Plus | Single, RWD | 369 hp | 5.7 sec | $59,795 |
| P10 AWD | Dual, AWD | 503 hp | 4.4 sec | $62,145 |
| P12 AWD | Dual, AWD | 670 hp | 3.8 sec | Not yet announced |
Trim levels above the base Plus package add further equipment: the higher Ultra trim, for example, costs about $6,600 more and adds ventilated Nappa leather, a 28-speaker Bowers & Wilkins sound system, a dimmable electrochromic panoramic glass roof, and heated second-row booster seats built into the seat cushions.
Volvo started EX60 production at its home plant in Sweden in April, with the first customer deliveries in Europe already underway. U.S. order books opened in May, and deliveries stateside are expected to begin in the coming months. The timing puts the EX60 up against a wave of new premium electric SUVs, including the BMW iX3 Neue Klasse, Audi Q6 e-tron, Porsche Macan Electric, and the upcoming Mercedes-Benz GLC Electric — not to mention the Tesla Model Y, still the volume leader in the segment.
The bottom line: A range certification coming in higher than the automaker's own estimate is a small win, but a real one — it's rare enough in this industry that it's worth calling out. Combined with an 800-volt platform, native NACS charging, and pricing that starts under $60,000, the EX60 P10 AWD gives Volvo a genuinely competitive answer to the current crop of premium electric SUVs, right as the brand needs one.
Californians bought 86,857 new zero-emission vehicles in the second quarter of 2026, pushing ZEVs to 19.1% of all new car sales in the state — a 3.3-percentage-point jump from Q1. The state's announcement ties the rebound to rising gas prices, and a new $3,500 instant rebate for first-time EV buyers takes effect next month.
