2028 Volvo EX60 Cross Country– Following the global debut of the standard EX60 on January 21, 2026, Volvo has officially unveiled the 2028 EX60 Cross Country. This model marks the first time Volvo’s legendary “Cross Country” nameplate has been applied to a fully electric SUV. Built on the brand-new SPA3 architecture, the EX60 XC is designed for those who seek the silence of an EV without sacrificing the ability to venture onto gravel paths and snowy trails. With its signature rugged body cladding and a commanding stance, it positions itself as a premium, adventurous alternative to the Tesla Model Y and the Rivian R2.
Powerful Performance and AWD Exclusivity
Unlike the base EX60, which offers a rear-wheel-drive entry point, the 2028 Cross Country is exclusively all-wheel drive. It will be offered in two high-output configurations: the P10 and the flagship P12. These motors utilize an 800-volt architecture, allowing for hyper-fast charging that can replenish 10% to 80% of the battery in just 18 minutes.
| Feature | EX60 Cross Country P10 | EX60 Cross Country P12 |
| Horsepower | 503 HP | 670 HP |
| 0–60 MPH | 4.4 Seconds | ~3.8 Seconds |
| Battery Size | 91 kWh (Net) | 112 kWh (Net) |
| EPA Range | ~300 Miles | Up to 400 Miles |
| Towing Capacity | 4,500 lbs | 4,500 lbs |
Rugged Design and Ground Clearance
The Cross Country is immediately distinguishable by its Frost Green exclusive paint, inspired by Scandinavian forests, and its robust protective elements. It features brushed stainless-steel skid plates at the front and rear, along with charcoal-colored fender flares to protect against trail debris. The vehicle sits higher than the standard EX60 by default. Thanks to the standard adjustable air suspension, drivers can hike the body up for a total of 9.2 inches of ground clearance—perfect for navigating deep snow or rutted forest roads.
A High-Tech Interior with Google Gemini AI
Inside, the EX60 Cross Country serves as the debut vehicle for Volvo’s integration of Google Gemini AI. This conversational assistant allows drivers to control everything from climate settings to seat heaters through natural speech. The dashboard features a stunning 15.1-inch curved OLED touchscreen and a dedicated driver’s display. In keeping with Volvo’s sustainability goals, the cabin utilizes recycled wood and tailored textiles rather than traditional leather. Music enthusiasts can also opt for a 28-speaker Bowers & Wilkins system, which includes immersive headrest speakers in all four main seats.
World-First Safety: The Multi-Adaptive Belt
Safety remains Volvo’s core identity. The 2028 EX60 Cross Country introduces the multi-adaptive safety belt, a world-first technology that uses sensors to adjust belt tension dynamically based on the occupant’s size and the specific force of an impact. Additionally, the car is powered by “HuginCore”—Volvo’s new central computing brain—which manages a vast array of LiDAR, radar, and camera sensors to provide an incredibly precise understanding of the vehicle’s surroundings, making it one of the safest SUVs ever produced.
Pricing and Availability
While the standard EX60 will hit showrooms in 2026, adventure-seekers will have to wait just a bit longer for the rugged variant. The 2028 Volvo EX60 Cross Country is scheduled for delivery in the summer of 2027. Pricing is estimated to start around $75,000 for the P10 variant. Pre-orders are expected to open in late 2026 for the North American market, following the initial wave of standard EX60 deliveries.
