Following the introduction of Volvo’s two flagship models, the EX90 and XC90 in April, Volvo Car Malaysia celebrates yet another milestone with a refresh on the brand’s most popular model, the XC60. The refreshed XC60, features new additions such as an athletic and elegant front grille, the Volvo air suspension system, and the latest intuitive technology.
The XC60, is not only a favourite globally with almost 2.7 million units sold to date, but also a trusted choice among Malaysian families. Since its introduction locally, more than 6,200 units have found homes across the country—underscoring its reputation as a go-to SUV for those who value comfort, quality, and driving confidence.
“The XC60 continues to be our most popular model in Malaysia, and for good reason,” said Chris Wailes, Managing Director of Volvo Car Malaysia. “It represents everything Volvo stands for — elegant designs, uncompromising safety, and powertrain versatility. Whether customers prefer a plug-in hybrid or a mild hybrid, the XC60 is our way of providing a sophisticated, sustainable drive to suit every lifestyle.”
The Popular Volvo Model, Refreshed
The refreshed XC60 is available in two electrified variants:
XC60 T8 AWD Plug-in Hybrid – estimated price starting from RM367,888
XC60 B5 AWD Mild Hybrid – estimated price starting from RM333,888*
Both variants cater to the evolving demands of Malaysian drivers – whether navigating weekday traffic through the heart of Kuala Lumpur or heading out for a spontaneous weekend escape, the XC60 is engineered for today’s electrified lifestyles—without compromise. Pricing for both variants of the refreshed XC60 will be announced at a later date.
The refreshed XC60 T8 AWD Plug-in Hybrid offers up to 89 kilometres** of pure electric driving (WLTP) – ideal for zero-emission commutes, school drop-offs, and city errands. When needed, the petrol engine delivers over 450Nm of torque, ensuring responsive performance for longer journeys. This combination of electric range and petrol flexibility makes it well-suited for those who value both sustainability and spontaneity.
The refreshed XC60 B5 Mild Hybrid presents a convenient, plug-free solution with improved efficiency. It recovers braking energy to support the petrol engine, lowering fuel consumption and emissions while maintaining refined, everyday drivability.
All variants of the refreshed XC60 come equipped with Volvo’s latest intelligent safety technologies, including adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and collision avoidance. Combined with Volvo’s renowned safety cage construction, the XC60 continues to deliver class-leading protection and peace of mind for every occupant.
Scandinavian Design, Refined
The XC60’s refreshed design reflects Volvo’s Scandinavian design philosophy—clean, confident, and purposeful. A new diagonal mesh grille compliments the signature ‘Thor Hammer’ LED headlights, and darkened rear lamps contribute to a more assertive presence.
New wheel designs and a curated selection of exterior colours – Forest Lake and Bright Dusk, further align the XC60 with Volvo’s modern electric line-up, while maintaining a timeless aesthetic.
Crafted with Comfort
While safety remains synonymous with Volvo, many have yet to discover the level of comfort and luxury, offered by the Swedish brand. Every surface is thoughtfully finished, every texture chosen with purpose and the attention to detail is best showcased inside the cabin of the refreshed XC60.
The seats, often recognised as among the most comfortable in the segment, offer the ideal balance of support and softness—whether for short city stops or long-distance drives. The result is a cabin environment designed for serenity, where distractions are kept at bay and comfort takes centre stage.
Adding to the sense of quiet comfort is Volvo’s air suspension system — offered as a complimentary feature in the plug-in hybrid variant, for a limited time. By effortlessly absorbing bumps and uneven roads, it elevates the driving experience and keeps both driver and passengers in refined comfort throughout the journey.
New interior enhancements also reflect Volvo’s human-centric approach. Wireless charging has been repositioned for improved ergonomics, while reconfigured cupholders and flexible cargo spaces offer better flow and usability for the day-to-day.
And because well-being is integral to Scandinavian design, the XC60 now features advanced air purification technology that filters out up to 95% of harmful particles, ensuring you and your loved ones can breathe easier—even when the air outside says otherwise.
Smarter Drives Ahead
Technology in the refreshed XC60 is designed to be intuitive and useful. At the centre is a new 11.2-inch freestanding display, powered by Google built-in, offering seamless access to navigation via Google Maps, voice commands through Google Assistant, and a range of familiar apps including Spotify and Waze.
For those who value premium audio, the Bowers & Wilkins High Fidelity sound system delivers a concert-level listening experience – adding another dimension to your daily drive.
With this latest refresh, the Volvo XC60 continues to evolve as one of the brand’s most well-rounded offerings—bringing together electrification, safety, comfort, and technology in a premium mid-size SUV.
