Volvo has launched its configurator for the Volvo EX 30, giving us the opportunity to see how the entry-level EX 30 performs.
Built with the lowest carbon footprint of any vehicle ever designed, the Swedish brand made a bold move with its new model the EX 30. The model is available in three finishes: Start, Plus, and Ultra. We compared the new Volvo SUV to the Tesla Model Y, which is also an SUV from the American company.
A standard version with minimal range
The Volvo EX 30 is, of course, an all-electric vehicle just like the Tesla Model Y. Volvo’s offering is slightly below in terms of performance compared to the Tesla, with a shorter range, as well as a lower top speed and power.
To be clearer, here is a table listing all the information on consumption and power for both vehicles.
| Vehicle | Volvo EX 30 | Tesla Model Y |
| Range | 344 km | 455 km |
| Power | 272 hp | 275 hp |
| Consumption | 16.7 kWh/100 km | 15.7 kWh/100 km |
| Top Speed | 180 km/h | 217 km/h |
| Battery | 50 kWh | 61 kWh |
| 0-100 km/h | 5.7 seconds | 6.9 seconds |
An Attractive Price
Yes, the model is the lowest in the range, but its price is very attractive. €37,500 without the ecological bonus, which reduces the price to €32,500 after the rebate. In comparison, the starting price of a Tesla Model Y is €45,990 without the bonus and €40,990 with it, which is an €8,000 difference.
| Volvo EX 30 | Tesla Model Y | |
| Price before bonus | €37,500 | €45,990 |
| Price after bonus | €32,500 | €40,990 |
Ultimately, for €8,000 less than the Tesla Model Y, the Volvo offers good value for money, despite the slightly lower range by 100 km compared to its American counterpart.
