  • Quick little highway range test with this EX30. Wasn't ideal conditions, so consumption are on the high side.

    Thanks. Was waiting for this. Efficiency as feared seems quite poor for this car. Your figures converted to 2.63mi/kWh which I understand better as from the UK. Yes,it was cold (4degC), rainy and the 20” wheels do not help but that gives a MAXIMUM range of only 170 miles 😮. That is identical to when I test drive this exact model here in the UK but with 19” wheels (6 degC and raining). So on a long motorway drive it has lost well over 100 miles of its WLTP range. This is certainly not a Tesla Model 3 in terms of efficiency.

    • @volvo_kristian
      @volvo_kristian  4 місяці тому +2

      Yeah, it doesn't appear as the EX30 are efficient on highway driving. However I will try again next weekend. I'm borrowing another EX30, that's running on 19" alloys.

    • @YorkshireDave

      I had even worse efficiency here in the UK in similar conditions and average spped of 40mph. Was awful. As well as that, the parking assistant couldn't identify empty spaces but instead tried to reverse into a parked car, cabin noise was awful, and tablet didn't work properly (couldn't even play the radio). Having waited 9mo since ordering, order immediately cancelled. So so disappointing

    Very interesting about the headlights. Good standard ones is a must when I go car shopping. Not interested in fitting extra ones. Volvo have traditionally been good with headlights

    • @volvo_kristian
      @volvo_kristian  4 місяці тому +4

      This is very subjective, but in my opinion the lights were just average. Maybe good enough in this segment of cars, but I wish they were stronger. Especially the high beam. But I'm pretty picky on this topic.

    Hi Kristian, I did a test drive too with the ex30. There are two unit ranges shown in the display, one is certified and the other is dynamic. Which one the ranges are more realistic when driven from 100% and what is the practical range it gives for 100% battery and until 5%? Thanks in advance

    • @volvo_kristian
      @volvo_kristian  4 місяці тому

      The dynamic will always be more accurate. The range will depend on a bunch of different factors. Speed, elevation, exterior temperature, climate usage, alloys and most of all your right foot 👍

    You mentioned the headlights is decent and the extra lights would be nice. But how good is the low beam compared to xc40?

    • @volvo_kristian
      @volvo_kristian  4 місяці тому +1

      They are definitely a step or two under compared to the XC40. However. The biggest difference and reason for my complaint towards the EX30 are the high beam. Both in spread, power and brightness.

    I was watching your video looking at one pedal range comparison and now it is gone, am I doing something wrong? On your XC 40 would be interested in wiper power draw and if the consumption screen in the car is accurate/useful.

    Interesting video, but would like to know how wet conditions affect consumption. If comparisons are to be made against an ICE, it's not very convincing that an EV is actually the way to go for long distances. Certainly for urban distances I can see the advantages.

  • @Maisemore
    @Maisemore 4 місяці тому +1

    How much difference in consumption do you think the winter tyres made? I won't need those in Southern England.

    • @volvo_kristian
      @volvo_kristian  4 місяці тому +1

      Haven't seen any numbers on how much winter tires will impact range, but there's definitely more rolling resistance in these.

    If you bailed out at Ljungskile with 37%, you could still have easily made it to Spekerød despite the collapsed parts of the E6 around Stenungsund and arrive at the Ionity there with around 10% or so remaining. That would be more representative of how far the car can go. As Bjørn Nyland would say - go deep. That way, you can maintain peak charging speed for longer.
    Any plans to do 1000km challenges like Bjørn does, all the way down the E6 to Helsingborg and turning around?

    • @volvo_kristian
      @volvo_kristian  4 місяці тому

      Yeah. Maybe standard are enough. Would say it depends on how long your daily trips are? And your access to a charging point.

Eksempelvis Volvo Car Fornebu, Bilia Hønefoss, Bilia Follo, Frydenbø i Bergen. Usikker hvor du holder til. Men din lokale Volvo forhandler skal kunne hjelpe deg her 👍

      The 265 aren't a estimate. Isn't that the WLTP figures you're referring to? Will never get close to that in these conditions. Cold, wet, high speed and with 20" alloys

      Hi Kristian, Let's assume I have 19" wheels and will be driving at highway speed over a mountain range at 65-70 MPH. Will it get anywhere near 265? Do you think it will get 200 in the given conditions?
      Thanks.
