next level, by creating a small SUV that looks after you as well as other traffic participants on busy city streets.”
As our smallest SUV, the EX30 is as safe as you’d expect from a Volvo car. With safety systems developed through our unique safety knowledge gained from research in real-world accidents for over 50 years, it is designed to help protect its driver and passengers in the event of a crash in real life.
It does so through modern restraint technology, as well as a structural design that fulfills our pioneering in-house safety requirements. These ambitious requirements often exceed official testing requirements and are designed to prepare our cars for various real-world scenarios which can sometimes be far more complicated than standardised testing.
In addition to our consistently high standards for protective safety, the EX30 also comes with an advanced suite of active safety features that are designed to help you avoid and mitigate collisions or risks. For example, an advanced driver alert system comes as standard and looks out for you when you’re not at your best.
In the city, the intersection auto brake on the EX30 is designed to help you prevent or mitigate accidents at intersections. If another car crosses your path in front unexpectedly, the automatic brake intervention feature is designed to bring the car to a stop.
The EX30 also includes a door opening alert. It can warn you through visual and audio cues, if activated, whenever you are about to open the door in front of, say, a passing cyclist. So-called dooring incidents are responsible for a significant number of cycling crashes and when turned on, the door opening alert can help reduce such incidents.
