EX30

Look for the most-used controls at the bottom of your center display. These aren't standard shortcuts, though. Controls only appear when the feature is available. Want that tailgate up? You'll have to wait until your speed is low enough for it to function. Widgets on the center display are smart, too. Get access to navigation, your phone and media without having to swipe. Just tap to access full functionality. The welcome view makes it easier to customize your drive before you even set off. Choose an ambience theme to set the mood, activate controls like one pedal drive and engage available Pilot Assist.

Get driver information how you want it. Calm view sweeps away everything but essential driver information. Surround view presents the same information plus active driver support features and a real-time look at vehicles around you. Choose your preferred view on the center display or program a switch on the steering wheel to toggle between them.

With Google apps and services built-in, you can connect to your digital life without pairing your phone to the car. Download your favorite apps on Google Play and use them hands-free with Google Assistant. Now your music, audiobooks and podcasts can be called up simply by saying, 'Hey Google.' Google Assistant can also be used to control some car functions, make calls and send texts, check opening hours and do the same quick searches you do on your phone. Navigate more confidently using Google Maps. Easily set your destination and view turn-by-turn directions on the center display. You’ll also see your available range, estimated battery level at your destination and charging stations on your chosen route. Your experience will become more seamless over time as Google adapts to your preferences.

The squared design of the steering wheel delivers a sporty grip. And it’s packed with stylish switches for driver controls. You can even customize one for convenient access to a specific function. When the temperature drops, heat the steering wheel. Use the center display or let the car do it automatically. Below 45°F, the steering wheel can be heated as part of a preconditioning program scheduled in your Volvo EX30 app.

Load and unload whatever you’re hauling more easily in the EX30’s wide 14.1 cu. ft. load compartment. It has a flat floor, no lip and you can lower it for extra convenience. Need to pack more in? There’s a hidden compartment under the load floor and the hood, and you can fold down some or all the backrests to increase cargo capacity. A central multi-storage gives everyone space on the floor. Pop down your bags and takeaways without worrying about spills. There’s more space slotted underneath it for even smaller items. Look for hooks, holders, nets, boxes and pockets throughout the cabin and boot. Volvo cars are designed for life, and life comes with stuff.

We design seats to maximize support for the spine. This can reduce pressure, hunching and shoulder strain. Find your ideal seating position using the power-operated settings. This doesn't mean bulky front seats, though. Their slim profile aligns with our minimalistic design approach and improves legroom for rear-seat passengers. Want your seat a little toastier? Use the center display to heat it or let the car do it automatically when temperatures drop below 45°F. It's part of a preconditioning program you set up in the Volvo EX30 app.

A 20 percent charge automatically triggers a charging reminder. With the reminder, your car offers to list nearby public charging stations on Google Maps. Select a station and enjoy turn-by-turn navigation plus an estimated time of arrival and expected charge level on arrival.

Select your route to a charging station, and your car will precondition the battery, pre-heating or pre-cooling it to the optimal temperature for charging. That can make a big difference to how rapidly and efficiently the battery charges when you arrive.

Charge your EX30 from 10 to 80 percent in 26.5 minutes at fast public charging stations. A wallbox makes rapid charging at home faster, too. Compared to a regular household socket, it can charge your EX30 up to five times faster. And you can start and stop charging, schedule charging and monitor progress on the wallbox and your smartphone.

Over-the-air (OTA) updates are an effortless way to equip your car with the latest software. No workshop visits. No customer helplines. Using the Volvo EX30 app, you can schedule OTA updates at the best time for you. Then they’re rolled out via the cloud straight to the car. OTA updates also make it easy to add new and complementary software-based functions to your car when you want them.

The EX30 is equipped to access high-speed 5G mobile networks. It's a rate of connectivity that gives you real-time communication between the network and the car. It can also plug your EX30 into the traffic ecosystem outside the car. For example, your car can share its location and speed to Google so Google Maps can navigate a route that avoids congestion and gets you where you want to be in the shortest time. The car will use other available mobile networks where 5G isn't offered.

Our next-generation infotainment system is powered by software developed by our in-house engineering experts and Snapdragon Cockpit Platforms from Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
