Chic, compact and with 315 kW AWD power: The fact that the new EX30 comes from Volvo is obvious at first glance: it bears the classic Volvo design. Albeit in very compact dimensions: Measuring just over 4.20 meters in length, it rivals electric vehicles such as the VW ID.3, Smart #1, Kia Nero EV and BYD Dolphin or the VW Taigo in the combustion engine segment. As such, the EX30 steps into a market segment where the choice of electric vehicles is still limited. This begs the question of how the electric drive will fare where petrol and diesel clearly dominate.
Nio ET5 Touring, stylish symbiosis of Nio design and estate car: The first electric estate car from Chinese manufacturer Nio: a smart touring car with style that is currently only comparable with premium-class combustion models. Fully electric estate cars from Europe are still lacking. Nio has once again demonstrated style with the ET5 Touring. The flowing roofline, panoramic glass roof, striking proportions and ambient lighting as a “digital waterfall” create plenty of elegant visual highlights. The result is that the ET5 Touring can be hailed as the winner of the German Design Award 2024.
