E-Drive Sweden brings us a matchup between the Volvo EX30 Twin Motor and the Tesla Model Y Performance. But the EX30 has one issue holding it back at the drag strip.
InsideEVs has been following the launch of the Volvo EX30 closely in recent months. The smallest electric offering from Volvo hits a sweet spot that many EV buyers are looking for right now. It’s a reasonably sized car with adequate charging speeds, an acceptable driving range and an affordable starting price. The EX30 doesn’t lead the pack in any category, and opinions are split on the Tesla-like, button-free cockpit.
The Tesla’s listed 0-60 times are for a rolling start, meaning acceleration from standstill might be a tad slower. While the EX30 has been shown to have significant throttle lag, making it difficult to time off the line. Get the best news, reviews, columns, and more delivered straight to your inbox.
