Volvo has ceased importing the EX30 electric crossover to the US after tariff complications. The decision follows increased manufacturing costs due to shifted production from China to Belgium, affecting its pricing and availability.
The Volvo EX30 was initially set for a US market entry as a compact, affordable electric crossover.
Manufactured in Zhangjiakou, China, it was priced at $34,950 before tariffs were imposed.
Following tariffs on Chinese vehicles, Volvo moved production to Ghent, Belgium.
This shift led to increased costs, with the new starting price rising to $40,345 for the rear-wheel drive model.
Volvo confirmed the closure of US order books for the EX30, limiting future sales.
Only approximately 1,200 units are left in inventory, which will not be restocked.
The decision reflects broader trends in the automotive industry regarding tariffs and manufacturing locations.
While the EX30 is considered environmentally friendly, economic factors hinder its potential market impact.
