Smaller, cheaper and younger than any other Volvo: the EX30 is destined to open new circles of customers for the Swedish brand. Some technical details may help.

The EX30 is an electric car and is still the cheapest Volvo in Germany. The compact hybrid is on the platform from parent company Geely and will soon become the Swede’s best-selling model. Also by tapping new younger customer groups. But it brings a lot with it – but it still won’t be a real Volksstromer.

At 4.23 meters long, the EX30 is approximately 20 centimeters shorter than its bigger sister model, the EX40. Therefore, a new car is not very suitable as a family car, but singles and couples should live well in everyday life. Not least because the trunk is quite spacious at 318 liters even in the basic position. There is another small storage space under the front hood that holds the charging cable. There is room for three people in the back seat, but even two adults should be reduced. The lower back seat is more suitable for children.
