The 2025 Volvo EX30 is a small SUV with big surprises. Edmunds’ 1,500-mile test reveals its Porsche-like speed and eco-chic interior. But tech quirks? They’re real. Ready to explore this electric gem? Swipe through to see why Volvo’s compact EV shines!
The EX30 hits 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds, matching a Porsche 911. With 422 horsepower, it’s a thrill. Standard mode? Still just 3.9 seconds. A 112-mph limiter caps its quarter-mile at 12.1 seconds. This compact SUV is seriously fast!
The EX30 isn’t a corner-carver like a 911. Its soft suspension causes body roll, says Kurt Niebuhr. Light steering feels “squishy.” But the plush ride and quick acceleration make every drive fun. Perfect for zipping around town!
The EX30’s cabin dazzles with recycled plastics like “festive confetti.” Comfy seats and retro vents add flair. “It’s imaginative,” says Duncan Brady. Textured panels feel artistic. This eco-friendly interior is Volvo’s best yet.
Volvo’s compact SUV shines in urban life. It parks easily and fits a small family, says tester Kaufman. Cargo space handles daily needs. The EX30 blends practicality and style for city drivers seeking a small electric SUV.
The EX30 offers 250 miles per charge, per EPA estimates. Efficiency? 31 kWh/100 miles. Edmunds’ real-world test is coming. Early signs suggest this EV suits daily commutes. A solid pick for range-conscious buyers!
The 12.3-inch touchscreen controls everything but feels clunky. Adjusting headlights takes multiple taps. Speed limit “bok” alerts annoy. Volvo’s 1.5.2 update should smooth these issues, making this EV’s tech less frustrating.
Apple CarPlay often fails, and Android Auto’s missing, despite Google software. Endless permissions frustrate, says Kaufman. Volvo’s OTA updates could fix this. Better connectivity would make the EX30 a tech winner.
The 2025 Volvo EX30 wows with speed, style, and compactness. Tech needs work, but updates are coming. Love this EV? Share on X! Check Edmunds’ full review. Poll: Worth the tech quirks? Vote now!
