2025 Volvo XC60 Facelift Coming to India on August 1, 2025 and It’s Smarter

Mark your calendars for August 1, 2025 because that’s when the 2025 Volvo XC60 Facelift India Launch happens. If you’ve been waiting for a luxury SUV that’s Scandinavian cool with Google smarts and actual safety tech, your wait might just be over. This isn’t a major redesign, but it’s a thoughtfully updated version of Volvo’s best selling SUV – and yes, that’s globally, not just in India.

What’s New in the XC60 for 2025?

Let’s start with the brains. Volvo has upgraded the XC60’s brain with a crisp new 11.2-inch touchscreen powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon tech, offering smoother performance and sharper visuals than before. That means smoother swiping, snappier maps and a clearer display – basically your phone might get jealous. And yes, it still runs Google built-in so Assistant, Maps and Play Store are baked right in. OTA updates? Of course.

But Volvo didn’t stop at tech. They gave the outside a light touch-up too. There’s a new grille with diagonal slats, sleeker rear taillights and a couple of new shades like Forest Lake, Aurora Silver and possibly even Mulberry Red. No one’s reinventing the wheel here but it’s enough to make you look twice.

Interior Vibes & Safety That Actually Works

Inside it’s more of the same Volvo goodness but better. Inside, the updates are all about comfort and clarity – with refreshed cabin materials, a rich-sounding Bowers & Wilkins setup, four-zone climate control to keep everyone happy, wireless charging for your devices, and a sharper, smarter 360° camera system that’s genuinely useful in tight parking. Also the front seats? Still heated, cooled and massaging – your back will thank you.

Volvo’s still playing defense with their legendary safety suite: BLIS with steering assist, Cross Traffic Alert with auto-brake and pedestrian/cyclist/animal detection.Nothing flashy or overhyped here – just safety tech that kicks in when it really matters.

Engine & Performance? No Surprises, Just Smooth

Under the bonnet it’s familiar territory: a 2.0L mild-hybrid turbo-petrol that puts out 250 hp and 350 Nm with an 8-speed automatic and standard AWD. It’s not a rocket but it’ll get you up a hill or through a Mumbai monsoon with zero drama.

How Much?

Volvo hasn’t announced the new price yet but expect a small bump over the current ₹70.75 lakh. It still lines up against the BMW X3, Audi Q5, Mercedes GLC and Lexus NX – but with a cooler name and a calmer vibe.
