A TAUNTON car retailer is celebrating success after its popular small SUV scooped a global award for its “revolutionary” design.

The Volvo EX30 was the winner in the ‘Most Revolutionary Transport’ category this year at a prestigious awards event.

The award came after the full electric small SUV was hailed by judges as “a fantastic piece of design” and commended for its sustainable materials.

This new award is the latest to join more than 10 major accolades for the decorated car model, including Car of the Year by The Sun, Carwow and Electrifying.com.

Vertu Volvo on Priory Way was ecstatic that the stylish Volvo EX30 was crowned the best in the Most Revolutionary Transport category at this year’s Wallpaper Smart Space Awards.

The Wallpaper Smart Space Awards celebrates objects, accessories, services and tools that combine beauty, design, innovation and style.

The leading international design authority awards the annual honours to give “global recognition for ideas that inspire and technology that lasts”.

Andrew Hooper is the Sales Manager at Vertu Volvo Taunton. He was incredibly proud when he found out that his branch won the award.

He said: “It is amazing to see another win for the Volvo EX30, especially in this category where the judges have recognised a vehicle that truly pushes the boundaries in every aspect, not least in being our most sustainable car yet.

“We welcome Taunton drivers to visit Vertu Volvo Taunton to learn more about the EX30 and its many accolades, and to chat to our team of friendly experts.”
