About the Volvo EX30
The EX30 is Volvo's smallest and cheapest EV and a big hit in Europe - quick, compact and built around a minimalist interior with almost no buttons. Small but clever packaging leaves good spots for a tracking phone.
Where to mount a tracking phone in the EX30
- Under-floor boot tray - compact but ideal.
- Under the front passenger seat - flat and hidden.
- Glovebox / tunnel tray - easy charging.
- Power - USB-C or 12 V.
- Signal - avoid pressing against metal.
Private by design - no manufacturer cloud, no foreign servers
Modern EVs are permanently connected: the maker's own app knows where your car is and routes that data through its cloud. Our approach is the opposite. Tracking runs entirely on a phone you own, and your location history lives in your own SpySat account. We do not pass it to the car maker and we do not send it to any foreign data centre.
