2026 Volvo XC60 prices: Refreshed SUV gets tech upgrade
The facelifted 2026 Volvo XC60 SUV range has been priced for Australia, headlined by refreshed looks and the brand's latest infotainment interface. As before the local XC60 lineup will be a four-strong affair, starting with the Plus B5 Bright (from $74,990 before on-road costs) and topping out with the Ultra T8 Plug-in Hybrid Dark (from $101,990). Compared to the outgoing range, prices are up by between $600 and $1900 depending on variant. These rises are, however, claimed to be offset by the introduction of fresh tech and new cabin materials. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. Externally, changes are limited to a new grille that apes the larger XC90, as well as new alloy wheel designs and darkened LED tail lights. Buyers will also have the options of new Forest Lake, Aurora Silver and Mulberry Red paint finishes. Inside is a larger 11.2-inch freestanding central touchscreen running the brand's latest software interface and supporting new online-supported functionality, apps and over-the-air updates. Volvo says pixel density has been upped by 21 per cent over the old screen, "resulting in an even crisper display". The company adds the new infotainment unit with Google built-in is more than twice as fast as the outgoing model thanks to its new Snapdragon Cockpit Platform processing from Qualcomm Technologies, while graphics performance is said to be 10 times faster. Volvo has already applied this new-generation infotainment display to the larger XC90 as well as its new range of EX-badged electric vehicles, while older models will be able to get the look and feel of the new interface via an OTA update later this year – for vehicles built as early as 2020 onwards. Other changes include new available interior decors, inlays and new upholsteries like Quilted Nordico. Volvo says there are also new cupholders and an improved wireless phone charger design for added convenience. Under the skin, the brand claims the new XC60 is even more comfortable and quiet than before by way of undisclosed improvements – no doubt extra sound deadening and a retuned chassis. Adaptive air suspension remains available depending on variant. B5-badged models carryover the previous model's 183kW/350Nm 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine with mild-hybrid tech; while the T8 Plug-in Hybrid gets a more powerful 233kW/400Nm petrol engine with 48V e-boost assistance teamed with a 107kW/309Nm electric motor on the rear axle. As before, all models in Australia are all-wheel drive – XC60 B5s get mechanical AWD while T8s have a rear e-axle – and feature an eight-speed automatic transmission as standard. While a full specification breakdown is still to be confirmed, Volvo Car Australia says the refreshed XC60 gets an "exhaustive list of standard features", including: All versions of the 2026 Volvo XC60 are on sale now. The outgoing MY25 XC60 Ultra B5 Bright has been replaced by the Ultra B5 Dark. Otherwise, the 2026 lineup is nigh on identical to before.
