Volvo EX30 Is Coming To The US But There’s A Catch
18:41||Ep. 498The Volvo EX30 is finally making its way to the U.S., built in Belgium to avoid Chinese EV tariffs imposed by the US. Starting at $44,900, it's a big jump from the original $35,000 first advertised, but that is because this base version we get in the US today is a dual-motor AWD, so it isn't the cheapest Volvo expects to ship, yet. Yes we will still get the RWD version starting at a lower price. This AWD version offers 243 miles of EPA-estimated range and a quick 0-60 time of 3.4 seconds. In this video, I’ll break down the U.S.-specific trims, pricing, and how this version compares to the ones sold in Europe and China. I’ll also go over the key features and what options you’ll get here in the U.S. market. What do you think about the EX30’s pricing and features?Shoutout to our sponsors for more information find their links below:- Fort Collins Kia: Visit focokia.com for full details.
