More about the Volvo EX30
Inside, the EX30 embodies Volvo’s signature Scandinavian design ethos, combining minimalist aesthetics with a focus on sustainability. The cabin makes extensive use of eco-conscious materials such as recycled textiles, reclaimed metals, and bio-based composites, resulting in the brand’s lowest life-cycle carbon footprint to date. Despite its compact footprint, the EX30 provides practical versatility with up to 904 litres of cargo space when the rear seats are folded. A vertically oriented touchscreen, powered by Google’s built-in software, serves as the central control hub for infotainment and vehicle settings. Volvo’s renowned safety is at the forefront with advanced driver-assistance technologies like Pilot Assist, 360° cameras, blind-spot monitoring, and door-opening alerts coming as standard.
What's my Towing Capacity?
The EX30 is rated up to a maximum braked towing capacity of 1,600kg, allowing it to handle even up to medium-sized caravans. To confirm the exact rating of your EX30, please refer to the VIN plate, which is located in the rear right-hand door on the central pillar.
Which Towbar is best for my EX30?
The fixed swan neck towbar offers a perfect balance of strength, style, and simplicity. Its smooth, one-piece curved construction blends effortlessly with the vehicle’s rear design, creating a modern and aerodynamic appearance. Thanks to its streamlined shape, it typically performs better with parking sensors compared to traditional flange styles. Although it doesn’t support certain flange-mounted accessories such as bolt-on bike carriers, it’s a superb option for drivers who prioritise a sleek look and consistent towing capability.
The detachable swan neck towbar combines the same elegant design and robust towing performance as the fixed model, but with a convenient quick-release mechanism to allow the towball to be easily removed when not in use, keeping the car’s original appearance intact and ensuring uninterrupted function of parking sensors. This makes it an ideal choice for those wanting a practical, discreet towing setup. With its mix of flexibility, strength, and premium styling, the detachable swan neck towbar is well-suited to both everyday driving and longer towing journeys.
Will it need a bumper cut?
The towbars for the Volvo EX30 require a cut to the lower edge of the bumper, keeping impact on the vehicle’s aesthetics to a minimum and allowing a detachable towbar to be almost invisible whilst detached.
