That is fairly the feat, contemplating that the primary EX30 deliveries started in Europe in December 2023, not even a full 12 months in the past. Maybe much more shocking is the truth that the EX30 is Volvo’s fourth best-selling automotive up to now this 12 months.

Volvo is at the moment relocating EX30 manufacturing to Ghent, Belgium, the place it might probably keep away from large tariffs in North America and Europe.
If this transfer permits Volvo to satisfy its unique worth goal of $34,950—which appears doubtless—U.S. shoppers will doubtless purchase the EX30 in quantity, too.
