@@BatteryLife as in how long can it keep going in km as a vehicle itself. Usually cars go sometimes up to 300k kms until they start dying. Ive seen some people go over 375k km in their teslas but the question would be if you think the volvo can live up to that too? Thank you
Wltp range is not the range in March at low temps with 130 km/h on the highway. Watch my normal daily use range test which simulates a mix of country and city driving.
I wouldn't say VERY low. Very low would be the City cars. I've done runs around the same speeds as here with consumption just under 25 so around 300km of range. But yeah, for autobahn a Tesla is probably better (or any sufficiently efficient car).
@@XLoaferY What I was trying to say is that this is a quite expensive car and it only provides, with some assurance, 200 km’s range at that speed. Well I have a Hyundai Kona and, at 150 km/hour I manage exactly the same distance... but if I’m going a 130 km/h I manage around 350 km of range. And the cost is much lower.
@@rogeriogomesosorio4755 yeah, but the Kona is worse in every other metric. A bike has excellent range, horses for courses and all that. Like I just said, the range is not 200km.
@@XLoaferY How is worse in every other way? You get much more for every euro on the kona that you do on the Volvo. And I have nothing against Volvo - I’m the owner of a 2019 V60 T6. I considered buying the XC40 recharge... but I felt that Volvo has already a lot to learn on this matter.
I own the car in the video, but no way electric vehicles will change much in terms of air pollution and greenhouse effects if we don’t change the way we produce energy in the first place. Today in the world 26,9% of the electricity is produced from burning coal, other 31,5% from petrol and 22,8% from natural gas.

Nice car, gives a real presence on the road.
Tried this car out for two days, I did NOT want to return it to the dealer. It is a car for the countryside or the city.
It is fun to drive!
Already have on delivery. Long delivery tho. To pricy really, but it is the fastest stock Volvo produced... SO WHO CARES
can you explain the charge speed in Km/h? this does not make sense to me?
How much range is added in an hour
@@BatteryLife I dont know why I did not think of this! Thanks
7:35 Can an EV be thirsty? :D
I ordered one of these and im wondering how car it can go in the future as after 180k km 🤔🤔. Do you happen to know by any chance?
Sorry, I don't know what you mean.

I have no idea. Sorry. We'll see.
Power with no range, that's a problem and it's way to expensive !
Glad I’m watching this. The advertised 400 km range is not true then…

Very low real life range... definitely not the best car for the German autobahn where you can go much faster

The Taycan is the car to get for high speed EV driving. The Cross Turismo if you need more space. A 4S is plenty fast.
Not bad car, but not very efficient.
Go electric for clean air to breathe.
Mommy where do electricity and lithium come from?
@@carminered where does oil and the big ships come from,
@@Vincent-ld4uz from using lithium in the refinery process, son.
