Video: Electric Volvo EX30 SUV gets five-star Euro NCAP safety rating

The Volvo EX30 has scored a maximum five-star rating in the latest round of Euro NCAP safety testing, says Volvo Cars New Zealand.

“While we always design our cars to be safe in the real world and not only to excel in safety ratings, this result underscores the strong safety credentials of the EX30,” says Volvo Safety Centre head Åsa Haglund.

“With the EX30, we have taken our city safety to the next level, by creating a small SUV that looks after you as well as other traffic participants on busy city streets.”

Designed to help protect its driver and passengers in the event of a crash in real life, the EX30 does so through modern restraint technology, as well as a structural design that fulfills in-house safety requirements, says Volvo.

It comes with an advanced suite of active safety features, such as a standard advanced driver alert system, designed to help avoid and mitigate collisions or risks.

The EX30’s brake helps prevent or mitigate accidents at intersections, the car includes a door opening alert, and much more.
