2025 Volvo EX30 Consumer Reviews

Exactly what we were looking for!

We've had the car for a few weeks now and continue to be happy and impressed with it. We chose the EX30 to be a commuter car, and it excels in this role. It's stylish, comfortable, and fun to drive. The acceleration is exceptional! The interior is thoughtfully designed, with a nod to recycled materials. This is our first EV, so it takes a bit to get used to everything being manipulated through a touchscreen. There are literally no buttons or knobs on the dash. There is also no screen or any gauges directly in front of the driver's sightline. This requires just a few seconds of pre-trip planning to ensure you have the screen and environmental setup you desire before taking off on your trip, but it's truly not particularly inconvenient. Most controls can be manipulated via voice activation, too. The front seats are comfortable. It is a tight fit in the back seats for adults, but, as I mentioned, most of our driving is commuting. For a short trip with friends, the back seats are absolutely do-able, but we'd probably default to our other car for a longer trip with family or friends. Finally, charging is convenient as the EX30 is compatible with the Tesla charging network if you get the adapter plug. This significantly expands your charging options. Finally, I found it refreshing there are only two models and limited option packages. Both models are well-provisioned, so you don't have to go through an extensive list of extras....and extra costs. Overall, we love the EX30 and have enjoyed driving it.
