CarTell take

We haven't driven the EX30 yet. On paper, the single-screen cabin removes the driver display entirely. Spend time with the centralised speed and ADAS read-out before committing.

Why consider it

  • 200 kW single-motor Long Range from $49,990 plus on-roads, plus Google built-in infotainment with Maps, Assistant and OTA updates standard.

What to know

  • 153 kW DC peak is mid-pack against 250 kW capable Ioniq 5 and EV3.
  • Rear-seat space is tight for the badge at the price.

Who it suits

City singles and small-family buyers who want a compact luxury EV with Google built-in. Performance buyers will want the Twin Motor for its 3.6-second 0 to 100.
