Volvo's baby electric SUV has up to 428hp - but if you can do without that, will cost from just £31k...
Three figures relating to this car, which is the all-new Volvo EX30, caught my eye. The first relates to its potential speed, and it has some potential in that regard. There was a time when Volvos were square and slow. Not anymore, though. Bearing in mind that the EX30 is a small SUV – smaller than the XC40 and, at 4,233mm, only a wee bit longer than a Ford Fiesta – perhaps the last thing you might expect to hear is that this is the quickest-accelerating Volvo, ever. But it is.
If the Twin Motor Performance's banzai acceleration is the first noteworthy point, the second is the EX30’s Single Motor's price. Sifting through all the bumf, it turns out you can order one right now and it’ll cost from £33,795.
Inside, the EX30 is typically Volvo. Which is to say, classy, minimalist, and with what looks to be snazzy selection of materials. Not only does it look good inside but where possible the materials have been selected for minimal impact on the environment. This brings me onto the last of the three noteworthy figures. Volvo says that the EX30’s end-to-end CO2 output, which includes production, fuel and disposal, is less than 30 tonnes over 200,000km. That’s 25 per cent less than an XC40.
