Volvo EX30 Electric SUV Spotted Testing Ahead of Global Debut on June 7

Volvo, a Swedish carmaker, will officially reveal the EX30 electric SUV for the international market on June 7. However, its production-ready version caught the attention overseas before the official global debut. According to the automaker, it plans to go all-electric by 2030. Industry reports claim that the launch of the e-SUV is a part of this strategy. The carmaker hasn't divulged any information on the SUV yet. However, market reports hint that the SUV will have an EV-specific platform and a powerful motor. It has been revealed that China will produce the EX30 for both home and foreign markets. In order to save costs, the mini electric SUV might also be delivered with a smaller battery pack. The EX30 won't, however, experience any cost-cutting in terms of the available technology or safety features. Let's have a closer look at what can be expected from this four-wheeler based on recent spy images.

Volvo EX30: India Launch Details 

There is currently no information available on the introduction of this electric SUV in India. We predict that Volvo will introduce the all-electric small SUV to the nation sooner rather than later and charge less for it than the current XC40 Recharge. Following its introduction in our market, the SUV will compete against the Kia EV6, the Hyundai Ioniq 5, and other models.
