The all-electric Volvo EX30 recently scored the maximum of Five Stars in its latest round of Euro NCAP safety testing. This success confirms that the model works hard to protect driver and passengers round every turn, even in busy urban environments.
The EX30 is Volvo’s smallest SUV but is still proud to be a flagbearer for optimum safety, further confirming why Volvo is so well-known for being the leader in automotive safety.
Euro NCAP is a leading independent car safety assessment programme in Europe, which aims to help customers make informed decisions about the safety performance of cars on the market.
“While we always design our cars to be safe in the real world and not only to excel in safety ratings, this result underscores the strong safety credentials of the EX30. With the EX30, we have taken our city safety to the next level, by creating a small SUV that looks after you as well as other traffic participants on busy city streets.”
- Åsa Haglund, Head of Volvo's Safety Centre
As one of the latest models to join the Volvo range, the EX30 benefits from Volvo’s unique safety knowledge gained from research in real-world accidents for over 50 years, designed to help protect driver and passengers in the event of a crash in real life. Modern restraint technology and a special structural design fulfils Volvo’s pioneering in-house safety requirements, which often exceed official testing requirements.
The EX30 comes with a suite of active safety features that are designed to help avoid and mitigate collisions or risks, such as an advanced driver alert system as standard. The model’s intersection auto brake makes city driving safer, bringing the car to a stop if another car crosses your path unexpectedly. Another clever feature is a door opening alert, designed to warn drivers through visual and audio cues whenever you are about to open the door in front of a passing cyclist or pedestrian.
