Volvo is set to reveal the EX60 electric crossover in Stockholm, Sweden, today. It's a make-or-break moment for the Swedish automaker, whose early efforts to build electric and software-defined vehicles were middling at best.

Watch the full livestream here, which begins at 12 p.m. Eastern and 6 p.m. Central European Time. More details will emerge shortly, with our own Mack Hogan reporting from the ground in Sweden. But we already know some details ahead of the reveal.

Volvo is positioning the EX60 as the most advanced vehicle it has ever built. It's a direct rival to the upcoming BMW iX3, the Mercedes-Benz GLC EV and the Tesla Model Y. It rides on the brand new SPA3 architecture that sits a clear rung above the SPA2 platform used by the EX90.

Even ahead of the full reveal, Volvo is already making bold claims. The EX60 is expected to deliver class-leading range, with Volvo saying the all-wheel-drive version will offer up to 400 miles of range on the EPA cycle. If that's true, it would comfortably outpace the Model Y’s current 330-350 mile ratings.

Still, in 2026, range and charging speeds are largely solved problems. The harder question for Volvo is whether it can finally deliver on the promise of a truly software-defined car, one that improves over time, ships without missing features and doesn’t require owners to act as beta testers.

The EX90 was supposed to be a turning point for Volvo, but its rollout was disastrous. Owners reported buggy software, unresponsive or malfunctioning screens, unexpected power losses and a laundry list of other issues.

Volvo’s Chief Technology Officer, Anders Bell, acknowledged as much in an interview with me last year, saying many of the improvements coming with SPA3 should, in hindsight, have been implemented on SPA2 itself.

What do you think?

That underscores just how much is riding on the EX60. So Volvo now has a chance to prove it has learned from its missteps and can finally marry hardware and software into one cohesive package. For Volvo’s sake, and frankly for the broader EV market, I really hope the automaker gets this one right.
