The refreshed 2026 XC60

The Single Motor EC40 for 2026
For the 2026 model year, the Volvo EC40 – the brand’s first fully electric crossover SUV – is now available with a single motor option, priced at RM248,888.
This new version comes only in Ultra trim and features a rear electric motor developed by Volvo, producing 175 kW (238 hp). It can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds. With a 70 kWh battery, it offers a range of up to 488 km (WLTP) and can be charged from 10% to 80% in just 26 minutes using fast DC charging.
A new color called Sand Dune, inspired by Sweden’s west coast, is now available on the EC40, along with existing colors Aurora Silver, Onyx Black, and Crystal White.
The 2026 XC90
The new XC90, Volvo’s flagship family SUV, now comes in a stunning Aurora Silver exterior color, alongside Onyx Black, Denim Blue, and Crystal White.
It offers two powertrain options: the T8 plug-in hybrid and the B5 mild hybrid, both featuring a 2.0-liter engine paired with an eight-speed Geartronic transmission for all-wheel drive.
The XC90 Ultra T8 is priced at RM434,888, delivering 462 hp, 709 Nm of torque, and impressive fuel consumption of just 1.8 liters per 100 km. The XC90 Ultra B5, available for RM418,888, provides 249 hp and 350 Nm of torque.
Both variants come with a comprehensive Ultra trim, which includes an 11.2-inch center display, 12.3-inch driver display, head-up display, next-generation Pilot Assist with adaptive cruise control, a 360-degree camera, Bowers & Wilkins audio, powered and ventilated front seats, panoramic sunroof, and four-zone climate control.
New user interface
To enhance the 2026 model range, Volvo Car UX, the new user interface, is introduced. This interface is standard in all 2026 models worldwide and improves usability with a clearer vertical layout on the center display, larger buttons, and context-specific shortcuts—like quick access to drive modes when starting the car or a 360-degree camera button when getting ready to park.
