The electric EX30 will enter the market next year and will cost from 36,000 euros (3.2 million rubles). It will be offered in three versions with one or two electric motors. The longest-range version of the EX30 will travel 480 kilometers without recharging, and the model will also have an “off-road” version of the Cross Country. He is promised increased ground clearance, 19-inch wheels and skid plates front and rear.
The EX30 crossover has the lowest carbon footprint of any Volvo model, with less than 30 tons of CO₂ over a production and life cycle of 200,000 kilometers. The novelty will be sold by subscription for 599 euros per month or at a full price of 36,000 euros.
There are three modifications to choose from. The starting Single Motor is a 51kWh LFP battery (49kWh available) and a 272bhp rear electric motor with 343Nm of torque. The range of such a car is 344 kilometers (WLTP), and it is suitable for trips over short distances.
The mid-range Single Motor Extended Range and twin motor Twin Motor Performance are equipped with a 69 kWh NMC battery (64 kWh available). The return in the first case is the same 272 forces and 343 Nm, in the second – 428 forces and 533 Nm. Extended Range is the longest in the family (480 km), and Performance is the fastest (3.6 s to 100).
Twin-motor cars and Extended Range support DC charging up to 153 kilowatts, for the basic Single Motor this figure is slightly less – 134 kilowatts. The maximum speed for everything is the same – 180 kilometers per hour.

The design of the EX30 is highly recycled: 25 percent aluminum, 17 percent steel and the same amount of plastic are recycled. The same goes for the interior. For example, the flooring is made from recycled polyethylene terephthalate (mostly bottles), the front panel elements are from recycled plastic, and the decorative inserts are from old jeans.
A total of four interior themes are available (Breeze, Indigo, Mist and Pine), each with its own special combination of recycled and renewable materials.

The media system in the EX30 supports all major Google services, as well as wireless Apple CarPlay, 5G connectivity and over-the-air updates. The diagonal of the central display is 12.3 inches, and it also takes over the functions of the tidy.
Other features include a windshield-mounted soundbar speaker, a centrally located glove box, smartphone pockets in the backs of the front seats, and a size scale on the tailgate that tells you whether, say, an Ikea nightstand will fit in there or not.

The ambient interior lighting in the EX30 changes five themes inspired by Scandinavian landscapes. There is an imitation of sunlight falling through the foliage; sunset on the west coast of Sweden; northern lights; golden midsummer sky and city sunset.
For the first time, the range of electronic assistants includes a safe door opening function that recognizes cyclists. For a surcharge on the crossover, it will be possible to install the next-generation Pilot Assist semi-automatic pilot and Park Pilot car parking.

Finally, in 2024, the EX30 will have a special version of the Cross Country. This design means increased ground clearance, 19-inch black wheels, skid plates front and rear, black front and rear trims, and a tiny Swedish flag on the edge of the hood.
Reception of orders for conventional crossovers will open today. Production of the EX30 will begin before the end of this year, but deliveries will have to wait until next year.
