Volvo

EX30 is not only the smallest and cheapest but also the fastest electric Volvo, thanks to a twin motor high-performance powertrain. It was first revealed in Milan, Italy in June 2023. The subcompact SUV comes in three variants; Single Motor, Single Motor Extended Range, and Twin Motor Performance. 
Volvo&#8217;s all-electric SUV is only 166.6 inches (4,233 mm) long, with a 2,650 mm wheelbase. Customers in United States will be able to configure their EX30 starting Fall 2023. Deliveries will start in Summer 2024.

Volvo EX30 Twin Motor Performance

EX30 is not only the smallest but also the cheapest Volvo EV to date. It&#8217;s based on the modular SEA platform, like EX30&#8217;s Geely-equivalent sibling called <a href="https://www.licarco.com/zeekr-x">Zeekr X</a>. While it&#8217;s tiny on the outside, EX30&#8217;s interior will make you feel like it&#8217;s spacious. Similar to Tesla&#8217;s Model Y, Volvo only uses a 12.3-inch infotainment display powered by Google&#8217;s Android Automotive OS. 
The only downside is that EX30 is going to be produced only in China. That means you won&#8217;t be getting any federal tax return if you purchase a Volvo EX30. Swedish brand will open books later this year. First deliveries will be held early 2024.

⚡ In the video, a Tesla driver proceeds through deep water without hesitation, even as it rises above the hood.
🔋 Thanks to waterproof packaging around the battery and motor, electric vehicles can navigate such conditions without sustaining damage.
⚠️ However, there’s still a risk of water entering the vehicle cabin and causing damage to electronic components. During flooding situations, it’s essential to drive cautiously and avoid going outside unless absolutely necessary.

🔋The 2024 BYD Han boasts a range of 506 km (CLTC), which extends up to 715 kilometers in the version with an 85.44 kWh battery. During today&#8217;s event, it was emphasized for the first time that the car features a silicon carbide chip inverter and an 800V architecture. However, the charging speed of the largest battery being limited to 155 kW indicates that the entire high-voltage system is not yet ready for 800V.
🚗In the performance version of the car, a dual-motor powertrain capable of producing 517 horsepower and 700 Nm of torque is used, achieving a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.9 seconds.

#Audi has introduced its first car developed on the all-electric PPE platform, the Q6 e-tron.
The Q6 e-tron, which is priced 10% cheaper than its sibling model, the Porsche Macan EV, developed on the same platform, stands out with both more compact and lightweight electric motors and a large prismatic cell-based massive battery.

Audi, using NCM811 cathode cells produced by Chinese company Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL) in Germany, states that the larger cell form facilitates battery production. Additionally, it emphasizes that the newly developed smart thermal management system enhances battery life by continuously conditioning the battery and reduces charging time.
Regarding the engine, the company claims a 50% increase in efficiency compared to the first-generation electric Audis and states that it can produce more power with smaller motors by increasing power density by 62%. It should be noted that the Q6 e-tron uses an asynchronous ASM motor at the front and a permanent magnet synchronous PSM motor at the rear, differentiating it from the electric #Macan.

Diesel Volvo production ends in early 2024.
Volvo is closing its diesel era at the beginning of next year. The company had a 58% share of diesel-engine vehicles in 2019. Last month, diesel&#8217;s share fell to only 8.9%.
One of the three models sold by the Swedish company, which will sell only electric vehicles in 2030, last month was fully electric or plug-in hybrid. With the fully electric EX30, the share distribution is expected to change more quickly in favor of electric. The vehicle will be launched soon in Europe and America.

The current situation in Europe was also effective in Volvo&#8217;s decision to finalize diesel. In 2015, diesel sales accounted for more than 50% of the European automobile market. In the same year, Volvo&#8217;s diesel vehicle sales peaked with an 88% share. Today, the share of diesel car sales in Europe has fallen to 14%.

Diesel Volvo Production Ends in Early 2024

The EX30, a forthcoming compact, totally electric SUV from Volvo, has a new teaser video that offers a more detailed look at the car. The EX30 will be formally demonstrated on June 7th, the company has also announced. Online patent photographs of the EV&#8217;s external design have also appeared, giving a thorough overview of the car&#8217;s complete look.
The EX90 flagship and the smallest SUV in Volvo&#8217;s expanding lineup were originally revealed in November 2022. It naturally takes many stylistic influences from its older brother, but it also has a chunkier, sportier, and more fun appearance to keep up with competitive vehicles.
The split taillights, pixel-style headlamps, and general surfacing are shared characteristics between the EX30 and the EX90. On the other hand, the EX30 resembles the somewhat bigger XC40 in terms of its small footprint, dimensions, and greenhouse. The bodywork is more sculpted than the typical Volvo, with the clamshell bonnet&#8217;s closed lines emphasizing the toned-up fenders.
<h2>Single And Dual Electric Motors Will Be Options</h2>
The modular SEA (Sustainable Experience Architecture) platform from Geely, which already supports SUVs of a size comparable to the <a href="https://www.licarco.com/smart-1">Smart #1</a> and <a href="https://www.licarco.com/zeekr-x">Zeekr X</a>, is believed to be used as the basis for the Volvo EX30. Both single and dual electric motors, as well as battery packs with various capacities, will probably be options.
The EX30 was described as &#8220;really important&#8221; for the brand earlier this year when Volvo CEO Jim Rowan spoke about it. He stated that it will be provided at a &#8220;really nice price point,&#8221; while being &#8220;very safe,&#8221; with a &#8220;decent range,&#8221; and &#8220;high quality&#8221; at a &#8220;good size.&#8221; As it focuses on online sales and suggests a new subscription-based ownership plan with a three-month commitment, Volvo is hoping that the release of its new entry-level SUV will help the company connect with younger customers.
We will be on the lookout for additional teases and updates as the manufacturer promised &#8220;a lot more details&#8221; regarding the EX30 in the upcoming weeks. The Volvo EX30 will start taking pre-orders in a few locations on June 7, the day of its debut, it was also revealed. China will be the location of production.

Fully Electric Volvo EX30 Small SUV

Volvo has unveiled plans to sell an all-electric minivan in China, where it will be one of the company&#8217;s top-of-the-line cars, alongside the EX90 SUV. There is no information on when it will be released or whether it will be sold outside of China. But we have a pretty decent idea as to which newly launched car it will be matched to.
The news that there will be a Volvo version came during a media briefing held by Qin Peiji, President of Volvo Cars Greater China Sales Company. According to some reports, Volvo will reveal its electric people carrier in concept form in the third quarter of 2023 and the production version will be shown and launched before the end of the year.
The six-seat Zeekr 009 is a vehicle of the same design that rides on the same Geely Sustainable Experience Architecture platform that the Volvo will be manufactured on. It resembles the Swedish manufacturer&#8217;s reimagining of the Volvo electric MPV. It includes a large 140 kWh battery pack and a dual-motor all-wheel drive system with 536 horsepower, giving it a stated range of 511 miles/822 kilometers.
During a press conference given by Qin Peiji, President of Volvo Cars Greater China Sales Company, it was announced that there will also be a Volvo model. Volvo will unveil its electric people carrier in concept form in the third quarter of 2023, and the production version will be displayed and unveiled before the year is through.
<h2>Volvo Enlivens the External and Interior Designs with Its Minivan</h2>
Both Volvo and Zeekr vehicles will be sold in China, but neither brand&#8217;s parent corporation, Geely, will offset the other&#8217;s sales. Therefore, it is assumed that the Volvo model would be positioned more affluently than the 009, which presently has a starting price in China of just under $75,000.
Later on, a cheaper Zeekr 009 with rear-wheel drive will be made available, although Volvo could decide to keep their model all-wheel drive-only to charge higher prices for it.

Volvo Plans To Put Electric Minivan On Chinese Market

Volvo, a Geely-owned Swedish carmaker wants to offer solely electric vehicles by 2030. It promises to release one new battery-powered model per year, starting this year to meet that objective. Volvo&#8217;s mystery SUV will be an electric subcompact vehicle rumored to named as EX30.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-30078 size-large" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/volvo-concept-recharge-front-view-1024x576.jpeg" alt="" width="750" height="422" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/volvo-concept-recharge-front-view-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/volvo-concept-recharge-front-view-300x169.jpeg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/volvo-concept-recharge-front-view-768x432.jpeg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/volvo-concept-recharge-front-view.jpeg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
The EX30, according to Rowan, will enter production in China in 2023. It will play a significant role in helping Volvo reach its 2025 goal of selling 1.2 million vehicles annually. Due to manufacturing difficulties in China, Volvo sold 698,693 vehicles in 2021 and it seems to sell slightly less this year.
<h2>Volvo EX30 Ready for Sale in 2023</h2>
Late in 2023, buyers should be able to purchase the EX30. It will be built on the Sustainable Experience Architecture (SEA) electric vehicle platform developed by Geely, which is also the foundation for the new <a href="https://www.licarco.com/smart-1">Smart #1</a> that was unveiled last spring. That vehicle measures 168 inches/4.27 m in length, 72 inches/1.8 m in width, and 64.4 inches/1.64 m in height.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-30074 size-large" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Volvo-EX30-1024x576.jpeg" alt="" width="750" height="422" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Volvo-EX30-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Volvo-EX30-300x169.jpeg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Volvo-EX30-768x432.jpeg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Volvo-EX30-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Volvo-EX30-1568x882.jpeg 1568w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Volvo-EX30.jpeg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
Another compact electric SUV from the Swedish brand: <a href="https://www.licarco.com/volvo-c40-recharge">Volvo C40</a>
The Smart #1 features a single 272 hp (200 kW) motor, a 66 kWh battery, and a WLTP range of 273 miles/440 km. Its starting price of €41,490 may serve as a guide for the pricing of the EX30, which Volvo anticipates to be its best-selling vehicle in a few years.
<h2>Volvo Focusing on More Young Customer</h2>
The average age of Volvo customers is likely to decrease by 10 years, according to various news sources. However, Rowan worries that it will be too expensive for younger customers. Therefore, Volvo wants to offer it mostly through a subscription for a monthly price. Rowan asserts that using the subscription model makes it easier to attract younger customers.
Electrive claims that Volvo has ruled out battery changing as a strategy to keep pricing affordable for younger customers. This might be due to the battery pack becoming a structural component of the automobile for additional safety.
Volvo will offer a variety of batteries in the EX30, according to Rowan, &#8220;so a client may pick the range that best matches their lifestyle as well as their budget.&#8221; He went on to say that Gen Z customers &#8220;continue to seek top safety equipment, a terrific ride, and excellent quality.&#8221;
