Euro NCAP Crash & Safety Tests of Volvo EX30 2024

Euro NCAP performs a series of crash and safety tests on car models:
▶ a frontal impact test where 50% of the width of the car strikes an oncoming deformable barrier, travelling at 50 km/h
▶ a frontal impact test where the car impacts a full-width rigid barrier
▶ a side impact test where a mobile deformable barrier impacts the driver's door
▶ a pole test where the car is propelled sideways into a rigid pole and the robustness of the centre airbag is evaluated
▶ a whiplash test performed on a sled.
A series of pedestrian tests are also conducted with different impactors: adult and child head form, and lower and upper leg form. As well as AEB pedestrian and cyclist tests. In 2023, a test scenario for Cyclist Dooring Prevention was introduced.
Active safety is rated based on the performance of the car’s equipment: autonomous emergency braking car-to-car and car-to-motorcycle scenarios, occupant status monitoring (including seatbelt reminders, fatigue, distraction, and impairment), lane support, and speed assistance technologies.

Esperava mais de um volvo

[@pablogodi1392]

That's a chinese car with a Volvo logo

[@iamblepg]

88% For adult? Whats going on?

[@thorsev6960]

Smart #1 scored 96%. Very disappointing.

[@MANHE1217]

Wow, it hits a pedestrian and the score is 79 the yaris passed all the test and got a 78. WTF?

[@alfredgreybeard]

It’s because that pedestrian just robbed the bank on the corner. The EX30 apprehended a criminal.

[@AzumangaSever]

Dude its a volvo its always safe…

[@cXilion]

looks pretty safe to me. good car

[@video_avvto]

Ага

[@alek1004]

did you watch the video lol?

[@saladien9987]

Volvo what happened to your software? :/

[@vikingdk9150]

It does better than the new Audi A5

[@rerometo]

Not really! 87% and 88% for Audi; 88% and 85% for Volvo: it's about the same. Volvo did a slightly better job for the road users and safety assist. But for a Volvo, it's pretty DISAPPOINTING! They were far better in the 2010's.

[@vikingdk9150]

only the child occupant score is worse. But agree, they are more or less the same. I think I just expected more from Audi. Anyway, safety is in general very nice.

[@scottysvensson]

Mate its entry level car not even Volvo Smart based car go buy real Volvo EX90 or ES90 @rerometo

[@rerometo]

@@scottysvensson I understand! But a Volvo IS a Volvo, whatever the model! That's why WE have high expectations!

[@scottysvensson]

@rerometo yea mate i can understand u but dont worry, it's still Volvo better than german rivals 👍

[@-never-gonna-give-you-up-]

They use a nice tv commercial about the pedestrian safety and such but this just shows how bad it actually is... just plowed through multiple pedestrians without even thinking about emergency braking...

[@EnzoBergstrom]

Volvo dont know how to program the software for this. Theres ton of unusued hardware in this cars even thats promised with updates. I would not trust that promise at all.

[@Elaba_]

AI is starting to become evil.

[@JohnySilver7]

To be fair, the commercial was about Ex90, a premium suv which is priced three times this car

[@rerometo]

It's an EV; that's why the pole test is very good!

[@video_avvto]

Крепкий какой.

[@_Alex23]

Amazing❤

[@rerometo]

Not really! They were far better in the 2010's!

[@sIparatorr]

Good looking car but the results wtf?

[@jg16kodustudios21]

Disappointing results for a volvo😥😥😥

[@09RadBoy]

pretty good

[@rerometo]

I have to agree with you! They were far better in the 2010's!

[@logitech4873]

​@@rerometo Definitely not. Crash standards have increased, and tests have become more demanding.

[@rerometo]

And that's why WE have become more demanding, as well, with a brand like Volvo.

[@MigV40]

@@logitech4873yeah it’s a lot tougher now

[@bejaHalik]

Street figher voice: Skoda wins ! 😂

[@kk.fitness]

ไม่ดีเท่าที่ควรเลย Volvo

[@StuMunro]

Shame the safety systems are actually dangerous. Did you not test them in the real world? Lane assist tries to attack cyclists or pedestrians stepping into the road instead of letting you steer around them. Speed limit systems make sudden speed changes due to incorrect data (risk of rear end collisions). Distracts the driver at roundabouts warning about cars approaching from the right using the roundabout when stationary. Driver can't do much about that when stationary.

[@thorsev6960]

Outperformed by Zeekr X, BYD Dolphin, smart #1, Cupra Born etc. Volvo is no longer a leading brand when it comes to safety…

[@adrens4617]

Funny enough 2 of the cars u named shared the same platforms with it but i think the test have gone stricter

[@thorsev6960]

@@adrens4617 only in regards to safety assist and Zeekr X did the test after they changed it. The three Geely cars only share the underbody, plenty of design and structural differences possible…

[@scottysvensson]

​@@adrens4617zeekr is volvo what the hell r u talking about?

[@iamblepg]

@@scottysvensson I think he meant with the Zeekr X and the Smart #1 being on the SEA2 platform, which the EX30 is also based on.

[@kevinwang0206]

zeekr has basically the same car, but it did loads better. What is going on, Volvo?

[@saladien9987]

Not their Software? Or outsourced in this case because entry level? Anyway weird

[@kevinwang0206]

Not about city safety feature. It’s the basic protection percentage of adults and children.

[@pepchristian]

loads better? it only got a slightly better percentage

[@Billywoo12]

Disappointing when Volvo no longer owns its USP. That's what NCAP standards will do in the long term, kill innovation but lowest common denominator thinking...

[@mso8190]

Ford Explorer is safer

[@vladislav7217]

Great car, with imazing safety, bravo volvo
