Volvo EX30 boasts the fastest acceleration of any Volvo to date. What were your impressions of its performance?
The Volvo EX30 offers a surprisingly engaging driving experience for a small electric SUV. The standout feature is undoubtedly the instant torque. Both variants deliver impressive acceleration, with the Twin Motor Performance version being particularly exhilarating.

The car feels agile and nimble in corners, and the steering is light and responsive, making it easy to manoeuvre in city traffic. The ride is generally comfortable, effectively absorbing most road imperfections.
