All-electric Volvo EX30 leaves some big reputations in its wake in reaching 100km/h from standstill in just 3.9 seconds without any bravado.

But even in narrowly missed out on the stopwatch, the thrill they provided from launch is what petrolheads live for. The soundtrack from the building revs, the violent acceleration that pushes you back into the superbly crafted racing seat and sometime a bit of wheel spinning that propels the car forward in a puff of dust.are as relevant as ever. The current state of affairs sees a fully electric compact SUV drilling these lean, mean, fire-breathing, race-ready machines off the line.

But it’s not so much about the fact that the Volvo EX30 managed to outsprint the big dogs, but rather the manner in which it did. Where the internal combustion engine rockets were all about big egos and automotive testosterone, the Volvo EX30 went about its business without any drama whatsoever. There is no dramatic visual effect from a head-up display or even inside an instrument cluster for the simple reason that the Volvo EX30 does not have these things. It features only a tablet-style screen in the centre of the dashboard. This controls everything from entertainment to displays usually found in instrument clusters.
