I figured I would start a thread on the Volvo EX60 (Moderator, please place this in any spot you deem the correct spot. Cheers.)

It’s coming to Canada, so it is going on my short shopping list for when I replace my current ride (May 2018 build LR RWD TM3) in spring of 2028.

Here is the EV60 link (to the Volvo web site):

https://www.volvocars.com/en-ca/cars/ex60-electric/

With eight years experience of using my TM3 for long drives (in all types of weather), whatever car replaces it must match what I get now PLUS:
  • Not have the ADAS get crippled when dealing with brine covered highways on grey overcast days with freezing precipitation,
  • Not have to deal with babysitting the rockers from sand/salt spray for months at a time, and
  • Not have to deal with so much noise at speed
 
The configurator for the UK market:


In UK pounds, the prices are:

The Plus version BP 56.860
The Ultra version BP 62.360
The P6 (RWD standard range version) "standard"
The P10 (AWD standard range version) add BP 3.000
The P12 (AWD long range version) add BP 8.000
I do like the P12 version w/ the 117 kWh battery c/w 400 mile range.
If you do purchase, my guess is you will be looking for 400kW chargers to charge at the max rating, the 400V DC/DC booster only max's out at 120 kW- which btw is faster than my Kona rated at 100 kW.
I also like the interior floor tray between the front seats, just high enough to stop stuff from rolling around the floor, but low enough to step over if need be.
Thanks for the configurator link...hopefully a new EX60 subforum will be added soon so less posts to move over there...the better.

Note: I would definitely inquire before purchase that the manufacturer of the battery is not the same supplier as the EX30
(70% SOC limit and park outside)
