The Volvo EX30 Cross Country follows a Swedish tradition of adapting popular models for the harsh Arctic winters.

Volvo, a pioneer of the soft-roader style with models like the V70 and XC70 Cross Country, is now applying this concept to the EX30, its smallest electric crossover. The model is designed to offer greater versatility, featuring optional 18-inch off-road tires and increased ride height, ensuring better capability to tackle challenging terrains where SUVs with summer tires would struggle.

The EX30 Cross Country comes with a dual-motor and all-wheel drive, focusing on durability and practicality for outdoor adventures. It also includes details such as a front grille design inspired by the Kebnekaise mountain range in Arctic Sweden and accessories like a roof rack and mudguards, common in more rugged models such as Land Rover and Land Cruiser.

According to Jim Rowan, CEO of Volvo Cars, the brand’s mission is to provide a complete experience for its customers, not just a car. He highlights the importance of durable vehicles built for all weather conditions, a crucial aspect for Swedes who endure harsh winters but also make the most of nature, regardless of freezing temperatures.

Pricing and availability for the UK will be announced soon.
