The Beijing Auto Show is still in full swing. In my opinion, countless booths, countless show cars, they are all a little less individual, a little less style. On character, Volvo is really a magical brand, really, just like the slow-paced Nordics, have you noticed that Volvo actually has no bright spots, but always feel that it has an indescribable high-end, car owners always like to get together, parking is willing to park together, driving is basically very Buddhist, and the feeling of no quarrel with the world.
Of course, the current Volvo is not very expensive, and young people can get it with hard work, so if you are a Buddhist youth, I think the EX30, the smallest SUV in Volvo, should not be missed, and it is guaranteed to be stylish when driven out.
Pre-sale of 21-260,000 yuan, which is not expensive for Volvo, but it is not cheap, and it would be better if it was officially listed and reduced by another 2-30,000 yuan, or dealers could give more discounts. The vehicle will be available on May 20 and delivered in June.
Volvo EX30 comes from the vast architecture, the vehicle size is 4233/1838/1555mm, the wheelbase is 2650mm, and the four-wheel four-corner layout with short front and rear overhangs makes it as large as possible in the interior space, positioning it as a compact SUV. From the front, the seatbelt logo and Thorhammer headlights are very recognizable, which is Volvo's most basic design style, and on this minimalist car, it retains only these two elements.
The side of the vehicle can be seen with two-tone stitching, the roof and body are of different colors, in the D-pillar area, you can see the EX30 logo, the rearview mirror is an integrated design without shell, the wheel size reaches 20 inches, the same two-tone style, the whole car has no superfluous lines, complex curved surfaces, simple, compact and sporty, Nordic Scandinavian aesthetics.
The tail is a little too strong for Volvo, its headlight shape is a bit complicated, the main part of the light is only the upper and lower two vertical light strips, the lower part of the annular part can not be lit up on the upper and lower sides, just play a decorative role.
Open the rear compartment door, the loading space inside is okay, there is a layer of storage space under the floor that can be expanded, and the rear seats also support a 4/6 ratio reclining. A careful design thought, in the middle of the tailgate closest to the car body after opening, hot stamping with the vehicle loading capacity label, marking some internal dimensions, as well as examples of items that can be loaded, this is still very "IKEA", don't look at the car is small, can be loaded a lot.
In the interior, minimalism is also Volvo's consistent style, there is only a vertical 12.3-inch screen in the middle, a few lines of the center console and a few decorations are designed, the steering wheel is flat up and down, the whole car can hardly see the physical buttons except for the steering wheel, the gear shift is a gear structure, the interior uses a lot of environmentally friendly recycled materials, smooth and delicate, the advantage is that it does not have a taste in the car, in addition to these materials contribute to the cause of environmental protection, the concept is worthy of affirmation.
The EX30's doors don't have any buttons, and the window controls are placed in the middle of the cockpit, similar to the Jeep Wrangler. At the same time, it only has two control buttons, and if you want to control the rear window, you need to click REAR, which is similar to the Volkswagen ID.
The new in-car system has finally become smooth, and the functions are sufficient, with CarPlay support, and a tire pressure display. The tire pressure display that I have in mind is really incomprehensible that some Volvos do not have this configuration in the fuel version. The car is equipped with Harman Kardon audio, and there is a 1.2-meter sound bar speaker in the front row, which is expected to perform very well, and Volvo has never been stingy in terms of sound.
The front storage space is very rich, the glove box is integrated in the middle of the main and co-pilot, it can be opened through the screen, this position will not affect the co-pilot's legroom, which is very important for this kind of car, otherwise it is difficult to open the glove box when the co-pilot has passengers.
Underneath the glove compartment is an open storage compartment with a charging port inside. The storage compartment also has a cover with a magnetic clasp, which is very delicate and made like IKEA furniture, which is perfect for storing small items. In front of the upper armrest box, the limit slot of the cup holder can be moved, and the water bottle needs to be dragged over, and it can be used as a small open storage compartment when the water is not put in the usual time, and it is very convenient to put high-speed cards, some small jewelry, mobile phones, etc.
The front seats are very wrapped, Volvo's seat comfort has always been very good, and you won't feel tired after a long ride, and the seats are not only wrapped in leather, but also spliced environmentally friendly fabrics, which have enough sense of grade. In terms of safety, Volvo's integrated seat is more ergonomic and reduces the impact of neck whiplash in the event of a collision, so it doesn't really need to be tied to an extra soft headrest, etc.
Entering the back row, the space is not too much pursuit, its positioning is more suitable for the use of the two-person world, and the back row is with pets. Of course, occasionally passengers can use it for emergencies, and long-distance travel is certainly not comfortable. Another novel design detail of the brain circuit, the storage compartment facing the rear row of the central armrest can be taken out separately, it is also very exquisite, not a simple plastic box, the outside of the storage compartment is carefully carved with reindeer, pine and other Nordic elements, this is petty bourgeoisie, this is the mood.
In terms of power, the vehicle provides four-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive models, four-wheel drive dual-motor layout, equipped with a 66-degree ternary lithium battery, with a maximum power of 315kW, a peak torque of 543 Nm, and an acceleration of 100 kilometers in 3.6 seconds. According to the declaration information, the vehicle will also be available in a 49-degree battery version, with a range of 410-590km.
Finally, Volvo EX30 is a non-practical personality choice, because the price of more than 200,000 is not like the domestic car to get all the things, its safety and environmental protection concept do not worry, but if you want intelligent cockpit, intelligent driving, EX30 can only give you the foundation. Its size and space are only suitable for their own driving or small couple's daily car, relying on the simple design, it is suitable for friends who pursue style and have a sufficient budget, daily life is not 996, but the coffee bookstore City Walk, in fact, this rhythm is also enviable.
