Volvo Adds Europe-Only 147-HP EX30 Variant, Confirms OTA V2L and New UX for Summer

The update is intended to lower the model’s entry price toward about €30,000 in Europe.

Overview

  • The new single-motor base option sits below the 268 hp version and is not offered in North America according to current reporting.
  • Battery choices include 51 kWh for up to 339 km WLTP and 69 kWh for up to 476 km, expanding range options at the entry level.
  • Vehicle-to-Load capability and a redesigned user interface will roll out to new and existing EX30s via over-the-air updates targeted for this summer, with V2L launching first in selected markets.
  • Volvo is adding a Black Edition with dark exterior accents and new interior themes including Harvest, with a broader Black interior spec available across the lineup.
  • European-market EX30 production has shifted from China to Belgium, a move reported as avoiding EU tariffs, while official pricing for the updated range has not yet been announced.
