Drivers can be among the first to experience fully electric model
A Peterborough car retailer is inviting local drivers considering the switch to electric to get behind the wheel of its latest fully electric model at an exclusive preview event.
Marshall Volvo Peterborough, on Mallory Road, an approved Volvo retailer, is opening its doors to drivers from across Peterborough to be among the first in the UK to experience and test drive Volvo's latest fully electric SUV.
Recently voted the UK's most exciting upcoming new car at the What Car? Awards just one day after its global reveal, the EX60 will be available to test drive for the first time at Marshall Volvo Peterborough from Friday 21 August to Sunday 23 August.
Blending Scandinavian luxury with Volvo's renowned commitment to safety, the P12 AWD Electric model offers the longest driving range of any Volvo to date, with up to 503 miles on a single charge. Designed to balance exceptional efficiency with cutting-edge technology, its ultra-fast-charging capability can charge the battery from 10-80% in as little as 16 minutes.
Inside, customers can discover a spacious, premium cabin featuring a dashboard-mounted speaker and a choice of four contemporary interiors, all crafted using a combination of renewable and recycled materials.
Visitors to the exclusive event can enjoy a personalised test drive with a Volvo Specialist, showcasing the EX60's innovative technology in real-world situations.
From experiencing the 360-degree camera and intelligent parking sensors to understanding Volvo's latest driver assistance features and seeing the benefits of its advanced 800-volt fast-charging technology at a nearby public charger, the sessions are designed to help customers feel confident about driving electric.
Guests will also have the opportunity to explore Google Gemini by asking it to recommend something tailored to them, whether that's their favourite local restaurant, a scenic drive or nearby places to visit.
Available to order now, the EX60 is priced from £56,860.
Terry Bradshaw, Head of Business at Marshall Volvo Peterborough, said: "We're delighted to welcome local drivers for an exclusive first look at the new Volvo EX60 here in Peterborough.
"This weekend long event is designed to be much more than a standard test drive, giving customers the chance to experience the technology that makes the EX60 so special. Whether it's trying the latest safety features, seeing how straightforward fast charging can be or exploring the capabilities of Google Gemini**, we want every visitor to leave feeling excited and confident about driving electric.
"Whether you're already considering making the switch or are simply curious about Volvo's latest innovation, we'd love to welcome you to the showroom."
