As Volvo's least expensive electric SUV, the EX30 is perfect for city dwellers and those looking to make the transition to an eco-friendly vehicle without compromising on style or performance. Here at Volvo Cars Mission Viejo, we invite you to learn more about this revolutionary electric SUV.

Range Capabilities of the 2025 Volvo EX30

The 2025 Volvo EX30 delivers an impressive electric range for a compact SUV. Depending on the trim level and wheel configuration, the EX30 offers an estimated range of 250 to 261 miles on a full charge. The Twin Motor Performance edition, equipped with 19-inch wheels, has an EPA-certified range of up to 253 miles. This makes the EX30 a suitable choice for daily commuting as well as longer road trips, providing ample driving range for a variety of driving needs.

Official Range vs. Real-World Performance

While the official EPA range for the Twin Motor Performance edition is 253 miles, it’s important to understand that real-world driving conditions can affect the range. Factors such as terrain, driving speed, weather conditions, and the use of climate control systems can impact the overall efficiency. For instance, driving in hilly terrain or at higher speeds may reduce the range, while city driving and moderate speeds may allow you to achieve or even exceed the official EPA estimates.

Factors Affecting the Vehicle's Range

The EX30’s range is influenced by a variety of factors, including:

• Driving Style: Aggressive acceleration and high speeds will use more energy, reducing range.
• Terrain: Hilly or mountainous roads will require more power, impacting range.
• Temperature: Extreme weather conditions, particularly very hot or cold temperatures, can affect battery performance.
• Vehicle Load: Heavier cargo or additional passengers can also decrease efficiency and range.

Charging Specifications and Options

The 2025 Volvo EX30 is built for convenience, offering both AC and DC charging options. This flexibility allows you to charge the vehicle at home or on the go. With a maximum DC fast-charging rate of 153 kW, the EX30 can charge from 10% to 80% in under 27 minutes under optimal conditions. This fast-charging capability makes long road trips more convenient, allowing you to spend less time charging and more time driving.

Charging at Home: Setup and Speed

For daily charging, the most practical solution is to use a Level 2 (240V) charger at home. When charging with a Level 2 charger, the EX30 can gain around 30 miles of range per hour. This means you can easily top off your battery overnight while you sleep, ensuring your vehicle is ready for the next day’s commute or adventure.

To ensure safe and efficient charging, Volvo recommends having a certified professional electrician install the home charger. A proper installation guarantees that your charging system operates at its optimal level.

Fast Charging: Stations and Compatibility

The EX30 is equipped with the standard Combined Charging System (CCS) plug, which allows it to charge at DC fast-charging stations across the country. With the ability to charge from 10% to 80% in about 27 minutes, you can quickly regain range when you're on the road. Volvo has partnered with several charging networks, and through this partnership, you may have access to exclusive incentives and simplified payment methods for faster and more efficient charging.

Advanced Charging Features

The EX30 includes advanced charging technologies designed to optimize battery health and improve charging speed. One of these features is battery preconditioning, which helps maintain the battery at the ideal temperature before arriving at a fast-charging station. This ensures that the battery can charge faster and more efficiently, especially in colder climates, where battery performance can be negatively impacted by low temperatures.

Futureproofing With Bidirectional Charging

The 2025 Volvo EX30 is future-ready with bidirectional charging capabilities. This means that in the future, the EX30 could be used for vehicle-to-grid (V2G), vehicle-to-home (V2H), and vehicle-to-load (V2L) applications. These features allow the vehicle to send power back to the grid, supply electricity to your home during power outages, or even charge other devices, offering enhanced energy flexibility and value to the user.

Technical Specs: Battery and Performance

The 2025 Volvo EX30 features a lithium-ion battery pack, available in multiple configurations. The larger pack is used in the Twin Motor Performance model, providing the highest energy capacity for maximum range and power. While exact battery figures for all trims are not disclosed, Volvo has designed the EX30’s battery to be durable and efficient. The battery is expected to last between 8 to 10 years or over 100,000 miles, which is consistent with the warranty of most electric vehicle (EV) batteries.

Performance Metrics: Power Output and Acceleration Time

For those seeking impressive performance, the Twin Motor Performance model of the EX30 offers 422 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque. This allows the EX30 to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds, making it Volvo’s quickest production car to date. For those who prefer more everyday drivability, the rear-wheel-drive single-motor versions of the EX30 offer a more balanced, yet still responsive, driving experience.

Energy Consumption: Fuel Efficiency and Driving Tips

The Twin Motor Performance model achieves an EPA rating of 116 MPGe city, 100 MPGe highway, and 109 MPGe combined. To optimize energy efficiency and extend range, Volvo recommends maintaining moderate driving speeds, using regenerative braking, and preconditioning the cabin while plugged in. Additionally, maintaining proper tire pressure and following regular vehicle maintenance can further improve overall energy consumption.
