The new Volvo EX60 also benefits from regular over-the-air updates enabled by the Superset tech stack
Volvo Cars is preparing to unveil the fully electric EX60 — a midsize sport utility vehicle that introduces a new era of human-centric, AI-powered mobility. The EX60 is the first Volvo designed to launch with Gemini, Google’s AI assistant, enabling truly natural, conversational interaction with the car. Set to make its global debut on Jan. 21, the EX60 combines cutting-edge AI, advanced computing and seamless software integration to make driving safer, easier and more intuitive. Every element of the car is designed to work quietly in the background, supporting the driver without distraction.
Gemini enhances every journey by enabling hands-free control through natural, multiturn conversation. Deeply integrated and highly personalized, it allows drivers to manage complex tasks without memorizing commands or diverting attention from the road. Whether retrieving information from emails, checking cargo capacity or planning a road trip, Gemini makes the EX60 intuitive and effortless to use — building on nearly a decade of collaboration between Volvo Cars and Google.
At the heart of the EX60 is the latest evolution of HuginCore, Volvo Cars’ newly named core system inspired by Norse mythology. Encompassing the vehicle’s electrical architecture, core computing, zone controllers and software, HuginCore represents a true software-defined car. It enables continuous improvement through over-the-air updates while reinforcing Volvo’s long-standing leadership in safety. The advanced AI capabilities of the EX60 are powered by the NVIDIA Drive platform, running on the Drive AGX Orin system-on-a-chip and the safety-certified DriveOS operating system. Together, these technologies deliver Volvo’s most responsive infotainment system to date — with instant screen response, fast-loading maps and improved voice recognition, all designed to keep the driver focused on the road.
HuginCore enables the EX60 to continuously interpret and assess its surroundings using a wide array of sensors, providing the car with a precise, real-time understanding of its environment. This awareness allows the vehicle to anticipate risks, support confident decision-making and deliver advanced driver-assistance features. With computing capability exceeding 250 trillion operations per second, the EX60 does not just process data — it learns. Drawing on insights from Volvo vehicles worldwide, including real-world incidents and near-misses, the car continuously improves its performance over time.
Like all new Volvo models, the EX60 benefits from regular over-the-air updates enabled by the Superset tech stack — Volvo’s unified software foundation that allows vehicles to evolve long after delivery. As Gemini becomes more deeply integrated, new capabilities will be unlocked, including the ability to use vehicle cameras to understand and respond to external conditions.
