The Volvo EX30 has been taken off sale as the Swedish brand scrambles to fix crippling software issues that has resulted in some owners handing the cars back. These issues, owners have told Autocar, range from screens going black and steering wheel buttons not responding to cars not charging and even emergency braking systems randomly activating.
” The EX30, Volvo’s first electric-only model that arrived in February, relies heavily on its software; with most key functions – including headlights, mirrors and climate control – accessed through its large centre touchscreen, something reviewers have been critical of. The electric crossover’s physical controls are limited to window switches, door locks and hazard warning buttons, with steering column switches controlling drive selection, indicators and wiper control.
