2026 Volvo XC60 price and specs

The Volvo XC60 has received a facelift for 2026, bringing freshened styling, new tech, and slight price increases.

Available now, the updated mid-size luxury SUV lineup opens at $74,990 before on-road costs, with all XC60 variants receiving price increases of between $600 and $1900.

The upgraded XC60 is distinguished from the pre-facelift model by a new grille, new alloy wheel designs, darkened LED tail-lights, and three new exterior paint finishes: Forest Lake, Mulberry Red and Aurora Silver.

The Ultra B5 Bright has also been replaced by the Ultra B5 Dark which, as the name suggests, features dark exterior trim elements.

Inside, there’s a larger 11.2-inch touchscreen – up from 9.0 inches – which features Volvo’s latest infotainment system and claimed improvements in processing and graphics performance.

There are also new interior decors, inlays and upholsteries, while Volvo has revised the centre console with new cupholders and an improved wireless phone charger design.

The XC60 is Volvo’s second best-selling model in Australia, with 857 examples reaching Australian buyers in the first half of this year – behind only the XC40 (1287).

The current, second-generation XC60 entered production in 2017. This facelift allows Volvo to extend the popular SUV’s life for a few more years; the larger XC90 has also received a similar facelift.
