Change versionAI overview
Choosing between the Nissan Qashqai and the Volvo EX30 means weighing a spacious, familiar family SUV against a dinky, design-led electric car. The Qashqai is a sensible, easy-going all-rounder that handles commutes and shopping trips with a practical interior, though its boot is on the smaller side and the drive is not particularly exciting. On the other side, the EX30 is stylish, comfortable around town and brings plenty of badge appeal, but you have to live with a cramped back seat, a small boot and cabin controls that run entirely through the touchscreen.

Worth knowing
