Volvo’s EX30 Gains Vehicle‑to‑Load Power for Camping and Everyday Use

Volvo has rolled out a software update for its EX30, the company’s entry‑level electric vehicle, adding vehicle‑to‑load (V2L) functionality. The update lets the car supply power to external devices, enabling users to run appliances such as coffee makers or campsite equipment directly from the vehicle’s battery. The change expands the EX30’s versatility beyond driving, positioning it as a portable power source for outdoor activities and emergencies. Volvo’s move follows a growing trend of EVs offering V2L capabilities, giving owners a practical way to use their cars as mobile power stations.
