AI generated from our expert reviews

The OMODA 7 is longer than the Volvo EX30, and it provides a bigger boot alongside more room with the back seats folded. The Volvo EX30 is more powerful. Around town, both cars feature light steering that helps when making manoeuvres. Wide-opening doors and easily accessible ISOFIX mounting points also help when fitting child seats in either model. In the back, legroom is where the OMODA 7 shines, leaving more than enough space to get comfortable, whereas kneeroom in the EX30 is tight. Up front, the Volvo's touchscreen menus are easy to navigate, but the OMODA's infotainment menus are irritating to navigate.
