    Review was spot-on! Just picked one of these up last Saturday. Ride quality is tremendous. I know you said that EV power may get old, but so far we can’t get enough. This thing is a rocket!!!!

      @@tk6729 No issues with range thus far. I installed a GrizzlE level 2 charger in my garage. Charge every other day. 99% of our driving is around town, so we don’t have much range anxiety. We did a few 200+ mile trips and we were lucky both times to find nice Electrify America fast chargers. 20 mins on the plug and it added plenty of range to get home. The car drives so well. Exceptionally stable in extreme wet driving. Had it out on the highway during heavy down pours and the car drove like it was on rails.

    Short answer, yes. Long answer, yeeeeeessssss. Everything from the cab design to the exterior to the smooth acceleration to the ease of navigating to the interior features to the freaking built-in garbage can makes the XC40 Recharge superior to its Tesla counterpart. The only things they need to improve are the available frunk space (at least enable a couple grocery bags to fit) and the single charge battery mileage (over 300, please) to get my signature on a purchase.

    Great review, and I agree, I owned Tesla before, my brother is a Tesla guy through and through, but I’m not convinced at all with the quality, and I’m frankly appalled at their low level of customer service. Tesla won’t even buy back their own cars (here in BC Canada, and they have only one dealership in the province and no coverage for their emergency road services past the Lower Mainland) , all that should tell you something… This Volt is definitely a contender for the Tesla Y, looking at AWD (dual motor), interior space, great range, torque, a more familiar interface and also it seems to handle the torque well (I remember the 2021 Chevy Bolt was swerving all over the place if you would put the pedal to the metal, even though the 2022 is much better, it’s still a bit shaky). Yes I know, the Bolt is not a luxury vehicle, just making a comparison….and, this Volvo might seriously outdo the German Luxury EV’s …I think your review showed everything really well!

    Volvo got style, but they did keep their classic front style. Very sleek and compact. Looks good for a long drive and the price is appropriate for Volvo. Just wondering if they are built as tough as the old-style Volvos. Not buying a Tesla everyone in NYC seems to have one I always wanted a Volvo for city driving.

    Tesla has the tech down. Other established auto makers have the build quality down. I'd take this over the Tesla for that reason alone. Plus, I've always been a fan of a boxier look in my suvs.

    I've owned several Volvo, s40, s60, xc90, I love the safety factor on their cars, perfect size vehicle, what kinda tax credit do you get on this car, how quickly can you recharge, I never liked tesla, always heard about the poor quality workmanship on their vehicles, and their very unattractive

    "What kind of EV do you have? Tesla?" Tesla at this point is like when they ask what your favourite classical composition is and you say "umm, Beethoven...da da da dummm". Be interesting and get much better quality for the $, Volvo is the way to go.

      After seeing the inside of the vehicle, here is my opinion on it. It’s alright looking, the best thing I like about it is the screen area where you can see the speed and etc. That area is a 10/10 but the infotainment area could have been designed a lot better.
