EX30: the fully electric SUV redefining simplicity and performance at Volvo Mont-Royal

An electric SUV built for modern life

Volvo adds a new centrepiece to its electric lineup with the 2026 EX30, a compact SUV designed for efficiency, comfort and technology. The EX30 blends reassuring range, impressive performance, Scandinavian design and practical innovations while remaining accessible and agile in urban settings.

Optimized range for everyday driving

The EX30 is engineered for maximum energy efficiency. According to Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) certification cycles, two electric powertrains are available:

• Single Motor Extended Range estimated up to 420 km
• Twin Motor Performance estimated up to 407 km (365 km for Cross Country versions)

This range opens new possibilities for daily commutes, family trips and busy urban lifestyles.

Simple and fast charging

One of the EX30’s strongest advantages is its ease of charging. On a 153 kW DC fast charger, the battery goes from 10 to 80% in 26.5 minutes, ideal for active drivers who want to minimize downtime.

The vehicle can also send a recharge reminder when the battery hits 20%. The central screen displays nearby charging stations on Google Maps with the estimated charge upon arrival.

By selecting a charging station as a destination, the battery preconditioning system automatically adjusts temperature to optimize charging.

Two powertrains, two driving experiences

The EX30 offers performance tailored to different needs:

• Single Motor Extended Range: up to 268 hp, 0–100 km/h in 5.3 seconds
• Twin Motor Performance: up to 422 hp, 0–100 km/h in 3.6 seconds (3.7 seconds for Cross Country)

The Twin Motor configuration will satisfy drivers seeking a more dynamic feel while maintaining the smoothness and quietness of a Volvo electric motor.

Scandinavian design with purpose

The EX30 captures the essence of Nordic styling. Clean lines enhance both aesthetics and aerodynamics. The optional black roof and rear spoiler add a sporty touch and visually lower the centre of gravity.

New 19-inch wheels, lightweight and aerodynamic, feature glossy black inserts and sharp diamond-cut angles that create the impression of a larger wheel size.

Segmented, adaptive Thor’s Hammer headlights improve visibility without dazzling oncoming drivers, and the C-shaped rear lights blend seamlessly into the bodywork.

A minimalist and clever interior

Inside, the EX30 reflects Volvo’s signature simplicity. The clean cockpit helps the driver focus on what matters. The 12.3-inch central display combines essential driving information and vehicle controls in a clear, responsive layout.

Comfort and ergonomics

The front seats provide support comparable to larger Volvo models. Drivers benefit from 12 power adjustments to find the perfect seating position. Three levels of seat heating and a heated steering wheel enhance comfort in cold weather.

Technology that stays intuitive

Steering-wheel controls are divided by purpose:

• Left side for driver assistance systems like Pilot Assist
• Right side for audio, communication and customizable favourites

Display views such as Calm or Surround let drivers choose how much information they want to see.

Space and versatility in a compact format

Although compact, the EX30 surprises with its practicality:

• Rear cargo space: 400 L
•  Maximum cargo volume: 1000 L with seats folded
• Under-floor storage: 61 L
• Front compartment (frunk): 7 L for small or rarely used items

The flat floor and extended wheel arches maximize usable room. A “Will it fit?” diagram integrated into the tailgate helps visualize cargo capacity.

Cross Country version for adventure

The Cross Country variant adds a more rugged look with matte black elements and unique wheels. Increased ground clearance improves visibility and helps tackle uneven terrain.

Smart storage for daily life

Storage solutions are designed to simplify everyday use:

• Two retractable cupholders
• Removable storage box behind the centre tunnel
• Floor space for bags or meals
• Extra-large door pockets thanks to relocated speakers within the soundbar

Ambient lighting inspired by nature

The EX30 offers several lighting themes inspired by Scandinavian landscapes, including Northern Light, Forest Bath and Midsummer. The fixed panoramic roof enhances openness while reducing heat and glare.

Immersive sound systems

• High Performance 100W: integrated soundbar with five speakers
• Harman Kardon 1040W: nine speakers and a powerful surround-sound experience tailored to the cabin acoustics
