SINGAPORE – An electric vehicle’s (EV) architecture allows for superior space packaging, since the absence of a bulky engine and transmission means the axles can be farther apart. This pertains to EVs which are purpose-built, and not those which are converted from or share a combustion-engine platform.
An excellent example is Volvo’s latest EX30, which is slightly smaller than the Volkswagen Golf but has more than enough legroom for five 1.7m-tall occupants and a boot to stow four carry-on luggage bags at the same time.
