Volvo’s Dual-Redundancy Door Handles Promise Exit, Even If the Battery Dies

Volvo’s EX60 uses shark-fin exterior door handles with an integrated electronic release and a mechanical backup in the same motion, paired with two DC-DC converters so the 12-volt system stays powered for emergency operations even after a crash. The design ensures doors can be opened electrically or mechanically as needed, addressing ongoing safety concerns about power-door handles and highlighting Volvo’s emphasis on redundancy for safe exits.

Volvo bets on a smarter, faster EX60 to reboot its EV push

Volvo unveils the EX60, a new two‑row EV crossover built on the SPA3 platform with an 800‑volt system for ultra‑fast charging, a structural battery and megacasting to boost efficiency. It runs Volvo’s HuginCore software, integrates Google Gemini AI, and supports vehicle‑to‑home/grid capabilities, with three powertrains (P6/P10/P12) offering up to 400 miles and a 10‑year battery warranty. Production starts in 2026 (P6/P10 in April; P12 later), with a starting price around $60k for the P10, as Volvo aims to improve profitability and reboot its EV lineup while expanding charging compatibility (NACS) and grid support.
