All models come with the highest specification 69 kWh NMC battery pack that provides up to 476 km of range for the single motor variants or 450 km for the EX30 Ultra Twin Performance1. The EX30 is capable of 175 kW DC fast charging and can be charged from 10 to 80 percent in as little as 28 minutes2.
Standard equipment includes LED headlights, 19-inch Diamond Cut alloy wheels, Pilot Assist, Harman Kardon Premium Sound, power tailgate, frameless auto-dimming side and rear-view mirrors, ambient interior themes, and the full suite of Volvo’s advanced driver assistance systems. The Ultra variants add Park Pilot Assist, 360° camera, powered front seats, and a panoramic sunroof.
Customers have the option of Cloud Blue, Vapour Grey, Crystal White, and Onyx Black exteriors, with an eye-catching Moss Yellow colourway – inspired by lichen growing along the Swedish west coast – exclusively available for the Ultra variants for a limited run in Malaysia.
The EX30 is Volvo Car Malaysia’s latest fully electric vehicle to be assembled locally and is priced from RM188,888 for the EX30 Plus, RM208,888 for the EX30 Ultra, and RM228,888 for the EX30 Ultra Twin Performance3. Sabah and Sarawak customers get the three variants at RM188,648, RM208,648 and RM228,648 respectively.
As with every fully electric model from Volvo, the EX30 comes with five-year complimentary Volvo Service Plan (VSP), digital services, 24-hour roadside assistance, and unlimited-mileage vehicle warranty. For further peace of mind, the high-voltage battery pack is warrantied for eight years.
Intelligently Safe
In conceptualising the car, Volvo designers worked on the basis that every moment matters – every idea, design, material choice, calculation, and test – to make a car that is meant for every journey and every person both within and around the car.
The EX30 comes equipped with Volvo’s full Safe Space Technology suite and advanced driver assistance systems shared with Volvo’s top-of-the-line cars – enabled by radars, ultrasonic sensors and cameras located around the car.
In fact, the EX30 adds even more safety features, including:
- An innovative door opening alert that detects bikes or other road users from behind and warns occupants with visual and audio alarms when attempting to open the door.
- Upgraded Pilot Assist that also adjusts the optimum distance from large vehicles on the highway.
- Automatic braking for front cross traffic, intersection turns, and low speed reversing.
- Automatic steering avoidance for vulnerable road users such as bikers travelling next to the lane and in the same direction.
The Volvo EX30 is also the first to include a new generation of Volvo’s Park Pilot Assist feature that can handle parallel, curved, perpendicular and diagonal fishbone parking spaces. Park Pilot Assist can automatically identify available parking spaces and take over the accelerator, brakes and steering to manoeuvre the car.
Personalised for Life
The EX30 blends chic Scandinavian minimalism with uncompromising safety, and its city-focused design is intended for a new generation of Volvo owners who live or commute in the city, value style and sustainability, and whose active lifestyle demands practical and effortless driving for multiple destinations in the same day.
The EX30’s urban-friendly size makes navigating busy city streets and tight parking spaces a breeze, while a low hood, extra-wide headlights and fenders, large wheels, and 171 mm of ground clearance adds to a confident look that never looks out of place at any office, gym, social club or urban destination.
The EX30 boasts a clean, minimalist cabin enhanced with five interior ambient light themes inspired by Swedish nature for every mood, featuring calming, shifting shades projected on the interior panels. For extra immersion, owners can pair each lighting theme with an ambient soundscape.
The EX30 is also Volvo’s first car to introduce Harman Kardon Premium Sound within a single soundbar unit embedded in the dashboard. Inspired by home audio design, the soundbar frees up valuable space in the front doors while reducing weight and material resources without compromising high-fidelity, driver-focused audio.
The EX30 maximises every interior space, with smarter storage solutions such as:
- Inbuilt wireless phone charging slot that keeps up to two phones in place, and flexible central storage that can easily fit a handbag
- Sliding cupholder and storage that can be fully tucked away under the central armrest
- Large door pockets replacing traditional door speakers
- Removable rear storage box under the central armrest that doubles up as a trash bin
- Rear luggage space of 318 litres with all seats up or 718 litres with the second-row split seats fully folded4, easily accommodating golf bags, flat-pack furniture and baby strollers
- 61 litres of hidden rear storage under the flexible load floor which can also be used to hide valuable cargo like laptops
- A handy “Will it Fit?” graphic on the power tailgate with intuitive examples of what can be transported with ease
The Volvo EX30 is the only sub-compact SUV with Google built-in, now enhanced with wireless Apple AirPlay for seamless connectivity. It also comes with a dedicated phone app that can be used to lock and unlock the car, set charging levels, and manage settings remotely.
Sustainably Electric
Every step that went into designing the EX30 has a significant impact for Volvo’s sustainability ambitions and electrification journey. By tackling emissions across the entire production and lifecycle of the car as well as considerate use of recycled or renewable materials inside and out, the EX30 designed to have the lowest carbon footprint of any Volvo car to date – less than 30 tonnes over 200,000 km of driving5.
The interior of the EX30 is inspired by nature, with clean, minimalistic Scandinavian design while maintaining a premium look and feel. All variants for Malaysia come with a sporty Indigo interior featuring upcycled denim textiles, upholstery made from 100 percent recycled polyester and Nordico with recycled PET content, while plastic materials are made with 30 percent recycled content.
