Volvo increases the batteries for 2028 XC60 and XC90 plug-in refresh
The refreshed Volvos also get new infotainment systems with Gemini onboard.
Volvo has announced an increase in battery capacity for the 2028 XC60 and XC90 plug-in SUVs. The company provided flights and accommodation to Ars to showcase the refreshed vehicles. The XC60, which has sold over 2.7 million units globally, and the three-row XC90 are receiving the update. While the exterior styling changes are subtle, the new plug-in hybrid powertrain significantly boosts the real-world electric range.
The SUVs feature "Thor's Hammer" headlights with matrix LED projectors and a redesigned front grille. Inside, there's a new ventilated leather option and an improved 11.2-inch infotainment system with a Gemini personal assistant for voice control. The new Gemini voice assistant performs better than its predecessor.
