Their listed outputs are also identical at 272 hp. Both specifications list 343 Nm of torque. These figures describe straight-line potential only; they do not establish braking performance, ride quality, steering response or durability under repeated hard use.

Dimensions, cargo space and towing
2026 Volvo EX30 Single Motor Extended Range provides the larger quoted cargo volume: 318 litres versus 313 litres, a difference of 5 litres. 2024 smart #1 Pro+ is 37 mm longer overall. Exterior size is not a benefit by itself: a longer body may create useful room, but cargo shape, rear-seat space and ease of parking still require a physical inspection.
