If you like your EVs with a more stealthy look, Volvo has just delivered. The Volvo EX30 Black Edition takes the brand’s popular compact electric SUV and adds a set of bold, dark styling upgrades, while keeping the same everyday usability that’s helped make the EX30 such a strong seller. 

 

What’s different about the Black Edition?

Volvo has kept it simple and focused. The Black Edition is offered in:

  • One exterior colour: Onyx Black metallic
  • One interior colourway: Indigo

Outside, you’ll spot:

  • High-gloss black 19-inch alloy wheels
  • Tinted rear windows
  • High-gloss black detailing on the grille strikethrough, iron mark, rear Volvo script and model badge
  • Colour-coordinated roof spoiler and door mirror covers 

Inside, the deep blue Indigo interior brings a sportier feel, with studio-inspired textiles and upcycled denim trim, exclusive to this edition. 

 

Price and trim levels

The EX30 Black Edition is available to order in the UK now, with pricing from £40,060 in Single Motor Plus trim. 

It’s available on:

  • Plus
  • Ultra 

And across:

  • Single Motor Extended Range
  • Twin Motor Performance 

 

Range and performance

Volvo quotes up to 295.2 miles (combined) range, and in Single Motor Extended Range form, a 0–62 mph time of 5.3 seconds. 

A heat pump is fitted as standard, designed to help maximise efficiency and support range in colder conditions. 

 

Safety and technology highlights

As you’d expect from Volvo, safety tech is a key part of the package. The EX30 Black Edition includes advanced sensing tech, with up to:

  • Five radars
  • Five cameras
  • Twelve ultrasonic sensors 

Other headline features include:

  • Adaptive cruise control
  • Powered tailgate
  • 12.3-inch centre display
  • Air quality measurement
  • Remote cabin air pre-cleaning 

 

A Black Edition line-up that keeps growing

Volvo introduced Black Edition styling on the XC60 in 2023, and the EX30 now joins a wider line-up that includes XC90, XC60, XC40, EX40 and EC40

Volvo also notes the EX30 was the UK’s tenth best-selling battery electric vehicle in 2025, and expects the Black Edition to broaden its appeal further.
