Understanding The Volvo EX30 Range And Charging Options

The new Volvo EX30 is one of the world's most highly anticipated vehicles, and a huge part of that excitement is thanks to the Volvo EX30 range and motors. If you, like many Volvo Cars Palo Alto customers, are craving a closer look at this electrified compact SUV, we've got the answers you need.
Volvo EX30 Range Specs & Performance Capabilities at a Glance
Car and Driver calls the new Volvo EX30 "perky, balanced, and attractive"1 – we couldn't agree more. The Volvo EX30 release date has arrived, and Twin-Motor Performance variants are parked at our dealership now; Single-Motor Extended-Range powertrains are coming soon in 2025.
Here's an overview of the Volvo EX30 range, charging time, and performance specs specific to the Twin-Motor Performance configurations, and they're available for your test drive at the Volvo Cars Palo Alto showroom:
- EPA-estimated 250- to 253-mile electric range,2 depending on wheel size
- 69-kWh battery
- 8-hour 0-100% Level 2 home charging3
- 26-minute 10-80% DC fast-charging3
- Includes NACS adapters for access to public Tesla Superchargers
- Up to 422 horsepower
- Up to 400 pound-feet of torque
- Standard all-wheel drive
- 3.4-second 0-60 rate

How Does the 2025 Volvo EX30 Capture Such High-Level Range?
The Volvo EX30 range is made possible by a combination of meticulous Volvo engineering, a Twin-Motor Performance AWD powertrain, and a gorgeously efficient 69-kWh battery. Both of the current trim levels – Plus and Ultra – come equipped with matching 19-inch Aero wheels with all-season tires, too.
In addition to this sustainable, reliable Volvo EX30 range, miles-per-gallon equivalents are also essential to understanding how efficiently an EV system is functioning. The Twin-Motor Performance Volvo EX30 MPGe is verified at an EPA-estimated 116/100 MPGe (City/Highway)2 with 19-inch wheels. This data far surpasses the efficiency levels of popular competitors like the Tesla Model X, which only delivers an EPA-estimated 98/89 MPGe (City/Highway)4 with its smallest 20-inch wheels.
Once the 2025 Volvo EX30 Single-Motor Extended-Range Plus and 2025 Volvo EX30 Single-Motor Extended-Range Ultra variants make their debut, your driving range will likely increase significantly: The EPA is estimating these setups will travel an impressive 257 to 261 miles before needing to recharge.2 We're unsure if a 2025 Volvo EX30 Single-Motor Extended-Range Core trim will also join the family, but we're excited to share more information as soon as the brand makes an announcement.
