Volvo EX30 in a market flooded with electric SUVs that often come with sky-high price tags, the Volvo EX30 emerges as a breath of fresh air. It’s compact, tech-forward, and carries the premium DNA Volvo is known for — all while being surprisingly affordable. Whether you’re an urban commuter or an eco-conscious adventurer, the Volvo EX30 brings a lot to the table. Here’s a full breakdown of its specifications, features, interior, mileage, battery, and more — including its expected price and launch date in India.
Compact Yet Mighty: EX30 Overview
The Volvo EX30 is the smallest SUV in Volvo’s all-electric lineup, but don’t let its compact size fool you. This EV is built on Geely’s SEA (Sustainable Experience Architecture) platform and is designed to offer sustainability without sacrificing performance or style. With sleek Scandinavian design cues, cutting-edge tech, and a surprisingly plush interior, the EX30 is making waves globally.
Powertrain & Battery: Two Options, One Goal
The EX30 comes with two powertrain choices:
Single Motor RWD (Rear-Wheel Drive):
Power Output: 272 hp
0-100 km/h (0-62 mph): 5.7 seconds
Battery: 51 kWh LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) or 69 kWh NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt)
Range: Up to 344 km (51 kWh) and 480 km (69 kWh) WLTP range
Twin Motor AWD (All-Wheel Drive):
Power Output: 428 hp
0-100 km/h (0-62 mph): 3.6 seconds
Battery: 69 kWh NMC

Top Speed: Limited to 180 km/h (112 mph)
Charging is fast and efficient. With a 153 kW DC fast charger, the EX30 can charge from 10% to 80% in under 26 minutes.
Interior: Minimalism Meets Luxury
The interior of the EX30 reflects Volvo’s minimalist Scandinavian design philosophy, but it’s far from basic. Sustainable materials like recycled polyester and flax are used throughout the cabin, and the layout feels clean and futuristic.
Key Interior Highlights:
12.3-inch vertical touchscreen infotainment system powered by Google OS
Harman Kardon premium sound system
Panoramic sunroof
Ambient lighting
Smart storage solutions
Recycled and eco-conscious materials for seats and trims
Despite its compact dimensions, the cabin feels roomy and comfortable for both front and rear passengers, with ample head and legroom.

Expected Price in India
While Volvo hasn’t officially confirmed the EX30’s price for India, it’s expected to start at around ₹45 – ₹50 lakhs (ex-showroom). This price range makes it highly competitive among premium electric SUVs, especially given the performance and features it offers.
Launch Date in India
Volvo India has announced plans to bring the EX30 to the Indian market in late 2025, likely during the festive season. Given the growing demand for EVs and the success of Volvo’s previous electric models like the XC40 Recharge and C40 Recharge, the EX30 is expected to attract a lot of attention.
The Volvo EX30 is a testament to how luxury and affordability can coexist in the electric vehicle space. It’s not just about going green — it’s about doing so in style, with comfort, safety, and performance to back it up. With a strong focus on sustainability, cutting-edge tech, and competitive pricing, the EX30 is poised to be one of the most compelling EVs in its segment.
