The Volvo EX30 is now more attractive than ever

For the upcoming model year, Volvo EX30 customers can look forward to new entry-level powertrains, elevated interior design, and an expanded Black Edition offering. The EX30 will also be available with Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) functionality, allowing the car to act as a powerbank and supply energy to other devices and appliances. In addition, forthcoming software updates will introduce a more intuitive user experience.

Several of the features will also be available to current EX30 drivers, free of charge, via over-the-air software updates.

The EX30 Cross Country range is also expanding, with the addition of a Plus trim level and a more efficient single-motor option.

“We’re making some big improvements to our smallest ever premium electric SUV, making an already award-winning car even better,” says Alexander Petrofski, Product Line Owner 30/40 at Volvo Cars. “By enhancing the user experience, introducing new premium interior options and adding smart technology like V2L, we’re making everyday life easier and more enjoyable for our customers.”

The power you need
The EX30 introduces a new powertrain that delivers 110kW (150PS) with a 51kWh battery and 339km of range, a perfect entry option for the person who needs a premium electric experience for the everyday commute. Alternatively, for those who enjoy the occasional longer drive, you can upgrade to a larger 69kWh battery for up to 476km of range. Together with the existing powertrain options, these updates give you greater freedom to choose the configuration that best suits your needs.

More intuitive and ready for new tasks
A new UX update improves access to the controls that matter most to you. A completely redesigned settings and controls system brings the right controls closer at hand, along with a customizable content bar that lets you use the space for predictive actions or the actions most important to you.

In addition, the EX30 is hardware-ready to offer bi-directional charging, a technology that allows customers to store energy in the battery of their electric Volvo and use it later. The V2L function, which initially will be available in selected markets, can transform the EX30 into a powerbank for charging other electrical devices, like an electric bicycle, or to power appliances such as electrical tools, sound systems, camping gear and cooking equipment. All you need is an adapter that connects your car with the appliance.*

New and current EX30 customers will benefit from the addition of V2L and these UX enhancements, which will be provided through over-the-air software updates planned during summer.

New exciting design options
Building on its nature-inspired design and calm Scandinavian feel, the EX30 now introduces two additional premium interior rooms.

The ‘Harvest’ interior room offers a warm light-toned aesthetic inspired by late Scandinavian summer evenings. It includes light-coloured woven recycled textile upholstery, subtly contrasting Nordico upholstery made from recycled material such as PET bottles and bio-attributed material, elegant dark flax décor, and a black headlining for a contemporary, natural feel.

The ‘Black’ interior room comes in an elegant deep-black shade, where the smooth Nordico upholstery with slightly contrasting seams is paired with natural, stylish dark flax décor for a timeless, sophisticated look. The EX30 Black Edition is now also available with the new ‘Black’ interior room. In addition, three exterior colours can be specified: Onyx Black, Vapour Grey and Crystal White.

With these updates, we’re expanding the expression of our Scandinavian design signature. The new options reinforce our commitment to calm, authentic interiors inspired by the landscapes, materials and people of Scandinavia – delivering a refined experience that feels both modern and naturally connected.

“Premium entry level electric cars are growing fast, and EX30 has been a leader in this segment since it was launched,” says Erik Severinson, Chief Commercial Officer at Volvo Cars. “The latest EX30 will further increase our addressable market in this segment, be a driver of electrified growth for Volvo Cars and attract more customers towards full electrification, together with our electrical options in all other size segments.”

All in all, model year 27 brings new features and design enhancements that make our smallest SUV its most attractive iteration yet.
