Last July, the Swedish automaker, which is owned by Chinese behemoth Geely, delayed production of the flagship Volvo EX90 electric SUV, citing software issues surrounding its LiDAR system. The larger of its two models comes with a 69 kWh battery and a 268 horsepower rear-mounted electric motor, with an EPA-estimated range of 275 miles.

You might not know it to look at them, but these two cars—one Swedish, one Chinese—share underpinnings and a parent company. Volvo and its Chinese parent Geely are very serious about selling cars that plug in. Where it falls down is its EPA-rated range: a mere 208 miles. The electric XC40 comes from Ghent, Belgium, incidentally.

In October, though, Volvo announced that, due to positive public reaction and high demand, it would add production of the EX30 to its factory in Ghent, Belgium, where the current XC40 Recharge and C40 EVs are built. Expect US EX30s to come from Europe, once that line is up and running, to avoid import tariffs on China-built vehicles.
