The new Volvo EX60 SUV pairs an exceptionally quiet cabin with a conversational Google Gemini AI assistant capable of discussing everything from football to dating profiles

Volvo's new EX60 SUV is drawing significant attention for its integration of advanced technology, most notably a conversational artificial intelligence assistant powered by Google Gemini. Unlike traditional in-car voice-command systems, this AI assistant is designed to engage in natural, interactive dialogue with the driver. In addition to its smart assistant, the vehicle features distinctive styling, including 'Thor's hammer' lights, and is noted for operating with an exceptionally quiet cabin, described as being as silent as a mute button.[1][2]
The conversational capabilities of the Google Gemini assistant in the Volvo EX60 go beyond fictional talking cars like KITT from the television show Knight Rider or the animated character Lightning McQueen. This real-world system is capable of discussing a wide range of topics, from rival car manufacturers and football's World Cup to offering suggestions to help boost a user's Tinder profile. However, despite these high-tech features and the vehicle's quiet performance, questions have been raised regarding the necessity of the SUV's significant power output, prompting discussions about whether such a vehicle truly needs so much power.[1][2]
