2027 Volvo EX60

[Mr. Mercedes]

The part under the screen kinda looks like a pull out rubbish bin, other than that, I like it.

Hopefully it's got Blum runners.

IMHO, the EX60 and BMW ix3 have absolutely nailed the exterior design category of their segment. Both will look fresh for many years to come.

And generally being a big fan of Volvo/Polestar interiors, I am very confident that I will also very much like the EX60's.

As a side note, I had the opportunity for a more detailed "look and see" session with the Polestar 4 yesterday. I am...impressed. Also, a very nice crew at the Polestar Space in Hamburg. Sadly, the Polestar 5 was no longer on presentation display. I just missed it, dammit.

I prefer the GLC TBH especially because of the abysmal interior of the EX60, and the strange interior of the iX3.

I didn’t like the GLC when it came out, but I’ve definitely warmed up to it, and I think we have three great cars here each with their own unique identity. It’s good for consumers.

I just love the Scandanavian no-nonsense, yet welcoming clarity of the Volvo/Polestar interiors. Cool, functional elegance paired with that element of "Hygge". Not easy to achieve.

Minimalism is now heading towards ugliness. The cabin resembles a Japanese kei car.

I am surprised that there’s real Nappa Leather in 3 colors available on the EX60, 1600€ is not very expensive for this option.
No HUD is a bummer however.

I agree the differences are surprisingly big.

Fortunately it’s not as silly as in the EX30, which is really atrocious.

Oh yes. The GLC is very different. Traditional. Out of the three it's the one that looks most like a car rather than an EV both inside and outside. Night and day difference in design philosophy between the GLC and EX60.

It is pretty barren, but the price is attractive and it's fast.

I just saw the first minutes of the autogefühl video, the door handles are indeed fully electric, Volvo is in hot water now, especially in China.

As is the smart #1 Brabus, which is the same but with an excellent interior with more space and matrix LED and HUD.

I wonder if they were too far in the design process to update that? Maybe they have a solution for the Chinese market ?

Same energy:

On a positive note the space between the front seats to put a bag is. That alone will win many female customers at a dealership. No need to go to the boot or put a bag in the backseat footwell. Just step into the front seat with it, and put it in a designated space and not the passenger seat triggering seatbelt warning.

I dislike the humpback rear. Odd shaped b pillar for a car that is not s three row. Inside, it’s lovely and has lots of parallels with Range Rover interiors. Calming, minimal shiny plastic or use of harsh textures like wood or carbon fibre. Makes the ix3 interior look over designed and too visually busy.

The BMW iX has the same void between the dash and seats, it's handy for sure, BMW dropped it from the iX3 which IMO is a backwards step.

I agree, now to capitolise on it Mercedes need to improve the range and decrease the price to match the competition.
