Volvo EX30
Striving to do more with less, the all-new EX30 is not only the Swedish brand's smallest EV, but also its most efficient and fastest so far. Delivering 268 hp (single motor) or 422 hp (twin motor), acceleration is powerful. Maximum range is 402 km or 420 km depending on the model. Inside, the seats are comfortable, while fit and finish is beyond reproach. Too bad that most of the vehicle controls go through the centre touchscreen. Also, a head-up display is missing.
