How the specs compare

Both belong to the SUV class, so their dimensions, performance and utility figures address a broadly similar type of car. One uses a battery-electric powertrain and the other a plug-in hybrid system, so range and consumption figures need to be read in that context.

2026 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD has the quicker recorded 0-100 km/h time at 4.8 seconds, compared with 5.7 seconds for 2025 Volvo XC60 T6 AWD Plug-in Hybrid. 2026 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD has the higher listed output at 351 hp; 2025 Volvo XC60 T6 AWD Plug-in Hybrid is rated at 350 hp, a difference of 1 hp. 2026 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD lists 493 Nm; 2025 Volvo XC60 T6 AWD Plug-in Hybrid lists 350 Nm from the engine and 309 Nm from the electric motor. These are not marked as a torque win because component and system figures are not directly comparable.
