As Volvo enters 2025, the brand continues to push forward with its commitment to sustainability and innovation, streamlining its model offerings while enhancing hybrid and electric options across the lineup. Most models remain mostly unchanged, continuing to offer all of the features that have made them favourites with buyers in the luxury segment. Here’s an overview of the 2025 Volvo models and the updates you can expect.
Sedans
- S60: For 2025, the S60 is now exclusively available with the T8 Plug-in Hybrid powertrain. This transition reflects Volvo's focus on plug-in hybrid technology, balancing power and efficiency for a refined driving experience. With the T8 powertrain, the S60 offers an eco-friendly choice that still delivers dynamic performance and Volvo's signature safety features.
- S90: Production of the S90 sedan has officially ended, but remaining inventory will continue to be available for customers. Volvo is shifting towards an electric future with the anticipated release of the ES90 electric sedan, which will build on the S90's reputation for luxury, comfort, and advanced technology—in an all-electric format.
Wagons
- V60: For 2025, only the Cross Country version of the V60 will be available in the mild-hybrid B5 variant. The traditional V60 wagon is now offered solely as the T8 Plug-in Hybrid in Polestar trim, providing 455 horsepower and up to 64 kilometres of electric range. The V60 Cross Country remains a great choice for those looking for Volvo’s rugged, versatile wagon with the benefits of hybrid technology.
- V90: Like the V60, the V90 is now only available in the Cross Country configuration. This model provides Volvo’s hallmark versatility and rugged styling, ideal for drivers seeking comfort and practicality with a touch of off-road capability.
SUVs

- XC60: The XC60 continues with the B5 mild-hybrid engine, which now offers a 4% improvement in fuel economy, giving drivers enhanced efficiency without sacrificing power. Additionally, the XC60 T8 Plug-in Hybrid option remains for those who want a greener option with added power and fuel savings.
- XC90: After ten years in its current form, the Volvo XC90 will receive significant updates later this year. This refreshed XC90 will feature design changes that modernize its look, plus a larger touchscreen that runs Volvo’s latest infotainment software, enhancing user experience and connectivity while maintaining the model’s spacious and luxurious interior.
New Electric Models
- EX30: The EX30 compact electric SUV is new for 2025 and it provides an exciting entry point into Volvo’s electric lineup. It offers a choice of two powertrain options designed to cater to different driving needs, with advanced technology like an intuitive infotainment system and comprehensive safety features that have always been a Volvo standard.
- EX40: Formerly known as the XC40 Recharge, the EX40 reflects Volvo's transition to an all-electric lineup. In 2025, the EX40 comes with an available performance pack offering up to 436 horsepower, making it a powerful choice in the compact SUV segment. A new black edition adds sleek styling to match its high-performance capabilities.
- EC40: The EC40, previously the C40 Recharge, brings similar updates as the EX40. It also offers the powerful 436-horsepower performance pack and a stylish black edition, adding to the appeal of this all-electric, coupe-styled SUV. This model shares its mechanical elements and major styling details with the EX40, offering a more distinctive option for drivers who put appearance over all-out practicality.
- EX90: As Volvo’s new flagship electric SUV, the EX90 is expected to arrive shortly, bringing top-tier luxury and technology. This model will feature an advanced electric powertrain, with extensive tech features such as state-of-the-art Lidar-based safety systems and a sophisticated infotainment experience, positioning it as a premium offering for families and luxury SUV seekers alike.
