Volvo EX30 Secures Top Spot In Revolutionary Transport At Smart Space Awards
The Volvo EX30, a fully electric small SUV, has been recognised for its innovative design and sustainability. It won the Most Revolutionary Transport category in the Wallpaper* Smart Space Awards. This award celebrates items that blend beauty, design, innovation, and style.
Bill Price, Editor in Chief of Wallpaper*, praised the EX30: "The EX30 is a fantastic piece of automotive design, with clear and welcome influences from product design and contemporary furniture, and great use of sustainably sourced materials. It also drives beautifully and has an excellent range." This highlights the vehicle's blend of aesthetics and functionality.
Nicole Melillo Shaw, Managing Director of Volvo Car UK, expressed pride in the recognition: "Wallpaper* and its writers and commentators are internationally respected for their understanding of what makes great design. That makes this award of special value to everyone at Volvo Cars who has helped create a product that pushes boundaries in every aspect, not least in being the most sustainable car we’ve yet produced."
Since its launch in June 2023, the EX30 has garnered over 10 major awards. These include Car of the Year titles from The Sun, Carwow, and Electrifying.com. Additionally, it was named World Urban Car in the World Car Awards and won multiple category awards for small SUVs and family cars.
The EX30's accolades also feature a ‘Best of the Best’ win in the 2024 Red Dot Design Awards. These honours reflect its widespread acclaim within the automotive industry.
Efficient Performance and Sustainability
The development of the EX30 focused on efficient performance and sustainability. Its battery electric powertrain offers a driving range of up to 296 miles. Recharging from 10 to 80% capacity takes just 26 minutes using a DC power supply.
This focus on sustainability has resulted in the EX30 having the smallest carbon footprint of any Volvo car produced to date. This achievement underscores Volvo's commitment to reducing environmental impact.
The Wallpaper* Smart Space Awards aim to give global recognition to ideas that inspire and technology that lasts. The Most Revolutionary Transport category includes new technologies designed to enhance mobility in innovative ways.
The success of the EX30 disproves the notion that a car is merely a mode of transport. It stands out as an example of how automotive design can integrate sustainability without compromising on performance or style.
The recognition from Wallpaper* adds to a series of significant honours for the EX30. These awards highlight its status as a leading example of modern automotive innovation.
The Volvo EX30 continues to set new standards in sustainable automotive design while offering excellent driving quality. For more details about this model or to configure your own, visit www.volvocars.co.uk.
