Volvo EX30 Arrives at Stoneacre Sheffield
24th January 2024
The latest addition to the Volvo range, the fully electric Volvo EX30, has finally arrived at Stoneacre Sheffield on the 22nd of January 2024. Despite its compact size, this SUV embodies the outstanding qualities synonymous with the Volvo brand.
The Volvo EX30 establishes a new benchmark for environmental consciousness, boasting the smallest CO2 footprint among all Volvo vehicles produced to date. Embracing electric power minimises its environmental impact, aligning with Volvo's dedication to sustainability.
In a sleek and efficient package, the EX30 beautifully embodies the Volvo brand's design principles. The exterior seamlessly fuses equilibrium and elegance, boasting a lengthy wheelbase, generous wheels, and symmetrical overhangs. Its electric identity is unmistakably apparent, featuring a confident front fascia, a closed shield, and a digital rendition of the iconic Thor's Hammer headlights.
Enhancing its allure and uniqueness, the EX30 presents a palette of five lively exterior colours. From the chic Cloud Blue to the vibrant and expressive Moss Yellow, inspired by the lichen gracing rocks along the scenic Swedish west coast. These colours inject the vehicle with character and charm, ensuring it effortlessly stands out in any setting. Furthermore, the EX30 is designed to elevate the driving experience, providing convenience, relaxation, and enjoyment through innovative technology and thoughtful Scandinavian interior design. Inside the car, owners can choose from four distinct interior themes, each offering a unique expression to personalise the ambience. The cabin is equipped with intelligent storage solutions, ensuring a clutter-free and organised environment.
Tailored Powertrains for Your Every Desire
When it comes to powering your journey, Volvo wants you to know that they go beyond a one-size-fits-all approach with their batteries. At Volvo, the focus is on empowering you to choose the battery technology that suits your specific needs. That's why the EX30 offers three powertrain options and two distinct battery types, providing not only a personalised driving experience but also an attractive entry price point.
Volvo acknowledges that each driver has unique preferences and priorities, and that's why they provide a range of powertrain options. Whether you value extended range, enhanced performance, or a balance between efficiency and affordability, the diverse choice of powertrains for the Volvo EX30 SUV ensures that you can find the perfect match for your lifestyle.
Charging Brilliance
When it comes to charging, the EX30 truly stands out with its impressive speed and convenience. The Twin Motor variant, featuring extended-range capabilities, boasts a robust charging capacity of up to 153kW, while the standard-range model offers a still impressive 134kW. This translates to a swift 10 to 80 per cent battery charge in just over 25 minutes, ensuring minimal downtime during your journeys. With the EX30, you'll spend more time on the road and less time waiting for your battery to charge.
To further elevate your charging experience, the EX30 offers intuitive controls through its centre display and dedicated app. Drivers can easily set the amperage, determine the maximum charging level, and even schedule when they want to start charging. This level of control empowers EX30 owners to optimise their charging routine according to their specific needs and preferences.
Introducing the eco-conscious EX30 with Remarkable Safety Features
The EX30 marks a groundbreaking achievement in sustainability across the Volvo lineup, proudly setting a new standard as the Volvo car with the lowest carbon footprint to date. This exemplifies Volvo's commitment to ambitious sustainability goals, addressing emissions throughout production and the vehicle's lifecycle, and employing considerate material usage. The result is a total carbon footprint below 30 tonnes over 200,000 kilometres (124,274 miles).
Safety remains a top priority for Volvo, and the EX30 is no exception. Crafted to deliver the expected Volvo level of safety, especially in busy urban settings, the EX30 comes with a special safety feature for bikes as a standard inclusion. This feature actively prevents "dooring" accidents by alerting drivers when they are about to open the door in the presence of a cyclist, scooter rider, or runner. Volvo's dedication to innovative safety measures reflects its commitment to safeguarding both drivers and others on the road.
To enhance the driving experience even further, the EX30 incorporates a contextual single-screen user experience. This intuitive interface seamlessly integrates with Google services and features the latest version of an advanced infotainment system. This technological combination not only boosts connectivity and functionality but also encapsulates the true essence of Volvo's design philosophy.
