Oh good. Another luxury SUV. Just what the EV market needs /s.

Volvo started with the cheap EX30, so this is a logical thing. Most other car makers started with luxury cars and are trying to get cheap ones out.

I mean I wouldn't call £33,795+ for the EX30 'cheap' and it's still a SUV. We need more compact hatchback sized vehicles, imo.

Well considering current EV pricing, that's what it is, in relation to other cars.

I agree that we need more 20-25k€ models on the market.

I settled on a 57k€ model because at the point where I adopted, there was less good choices around.

I really wish they would make an EV version of the discontinued Smart Roadster. That thing looked like a miniature Lotus Elise, and the diesel version could get 70 mpg.

Yeah, I thought that thing looked pretty cool to. A EV MX5 might be neat to.
