Official: Volvo Has Discontinued The Electric EX30 SUV For The US Market
Volvo has discontinued the electric EX30 and EX30 Cross Country in the United States after model year 2026, the company confirmed on Tuesday.
The decision comes as several automakers reassess imported EVs following a turbulent stretch for the sector. A mix of tariffs, shifting incentives, and slowing demand has pushed companies to pause or cancel some electric models. The EX30 is the latest example. For years, its US rollout was complicated by shifting trade policies.
When Volvo unveiled the compact electric crossover in 2023, executives pitched it as a rare affordable EV for American buyers, with a starting price below $35,000. The vehicle was initially earmarked for production in China.
But in 2024, under the Biden administration, the US imposed a 100% tariff on electric vehicles imported from China, forcing Volvo to shift US-bound production to Belgium.
Since production of the EX30 began in Ghent in April 2025, around 4,500 units have been built for the American market, accounting for roughly one-fifth of the model’s output at the site. In total, Volvo sold about 5,400 EX30s in the US last year, less than 5 percent of its overall sales there.
According to The Drive, Volvo dealerships have until March 20 to place orders for the EX30 and EX30 Cross Country, with production for the U.S. coming to a halt at the end of this summer. Volvo confirmed that it will continue to sell the EX40—an electric version of the compact gas-powered XC40—and the three-row mid-size EX90 in the United States and still plans to offer the new EX60 later this year.
