The new 2025 Volvo EX30 is a full-electric sub-compact crossover that will hit the U.S. market this summer. All versions of the vehicle are a great new car value — especially for an EV. Pricing ranges from $34,950-$47,900. But, let's focus on if you should buy the rear-wheel-drive (RWD) or all-wheel-drive (AWD) version.

Bryon Dorr flew to the other side of the globe — from Oregon to Sweden — to get some seat time in the great white north, just a few miles south of the Arctic Circle. Not only did Volvo create a 2.3 mile 75 turn private ice track, complete with adjacent slalom course, on a frozen lake, but also ordered up some properly wintery conditions — with Mother Nature providing fresh snow and high winds.
