Thanks for the info. Pick mine up on Tuesday!
Great, have fun!
Thanks Thom, good info, as always.
Thanks! 😊
Now I also wish for a heads up display for the driver!
we all do, haha! 😉
I was thinking along those lines, but there are 5 or 6 Tesla drivers where I work (So California) and they seem to have gotten used to the single screen pretty quickly.
Had tesla for 4 years and dont even remember how it feelt to have a head up display.
I want a head up display for every passenger seat, except the driver seat.
@@calad6482 lol
good, I like the old ex30 badge at C pillar.
There's more... The Twin Motor Performance and Single Motor Extended Range will each get a badge on the tailgate to reflect what 'engine' the car has. Just as we are used to with current Volvo's.. 😊
I wonder what they will look like.
thank you so much, just ordered one delivery june hope i can deleay it... THX
26th of february I ordered my EX30. The car is expected in july. I hope mine will be on the right side of production this year.
Great choose. I get mine in Sweden in 2-3 weeks ❤❤
No dashcam/sentinel mode at all? I find it useful, and the ex30 seems to have the hardware necessary to do it.
Ah what a bummer for me that I have to drive in the "boring" grey color. Would have been great to have the cloud blue! I ordered half way February and delivery at the beginning of July, so fingers crossed I get model year 25.
I am sure very happy with your news about the steeringwheel update! I ordered de core single motor extended range for delevering in november! Hoping for more updates as the power consumption. Wil it mean that "my" car shal be modelyear 25 or 26?? I will follow your news with interest . Thank you Johan from Holland
That will surely be a MY25 Johan! By that time the car will also have some more OTA-updates so I'm expecting you will get a pretty efficient and 'flawless' EX30. Thanks for the support, regards!
Amazing car.
Hi Thom. Love your channel. We know you have connections with Volvo 😬. Please please relay message to their R&D a lot of use hate Teslafication screens. Not having a dedicated driver screen or at minimal high quality HUD is a huge deal breaker. TIA😊
I wasn’t expecting to discover we have it pretty good in the UK, with all the colours free and some options on Plus included as standard.
Yep that does sound like a pretty good deal compared to other markets.
Hi Thom, do you know if the phone app works on all trim levels? Even the CORE with LFP battery? Thanks
Yes you get the Volvo On Call app with all new Volvos. First 4 years or so are free I believe
Thanks Thom. One would think 2025 would bring a Tesla/NACS connector as standard.
I was hoping for a screen with thinner bezels. The current one looks outdated.
Thanks for the updates. Will the2025s have Tesla's charging port? I really hope so! Adapters are a pain!
Might be depending where you live. In Sweden we only have that charger for all chargers in the country.
The light blue one is breeze. The mist one is the grey wool one.
Whoops, yep mixed them up. Meaning Breeze ofc. Sorry 🙃
I was going to comment on this too. I loven the Mist interior, btw.
Great! Thanks. Love your accent which seems just right for discussing Volvos. Here in the UK, it is impossible to get a test drive of the EX 30. Yes, impossible. Even at regional promotion events, no driving, just looking. Is this the same in other countries? I will not buy a vehicle without driving it first, as road feel and seat comfort matter to me.
How is a Dutch accent right for a Swedish car?
I test drove an Ultra at my local reseller in Norway, while I was waiting to get my current Volvo from regular service. This wasn’t planned and was no problem. I liked driving it a lot, but the lack of a HUD is a major fault in my opinion.
There was/is a 24hrs testdrive possible in Germany. I drove the Plus and I fully agree with Thom: the buttons on the steering wheel are a pain. If you activate ACC and want to increase/decrease the limit, it is so laggy that the system always reminds you to stay focused and watch the road instead of the center display.
I want a small driver display or HUD and functioning steering wheel buttons. Then this car might be an option. Size is great for 2 without kids.
Check the Volvo webpage…maybe they offer testdrives for the UK too soon!
I'm disappointed that we still can't buy a long range with a white roof. If the roof must be black can it at least be fitted with solar panels?
HUD please! Just like its sister cars (or is that cousin?) Smart #1 and Zeeker!
no head up display upgrade? bummer
Do you think the Cross Country version could also arrive in summer or probably later?
My latest info was that first examples will arrive late this year. Let's say Q4. But hopefully a bit earlier.. Stay tuned!
Thanks a lot!@@thom-lov Really looking forward to the CC :)
Me too!!!
I heard it doesn't have Apple CarPlay?! Also are there aftermarket dashes available to go behind the steering wheel?
It do have it
Aftermarket dashes will come and they are perfect.
I was convinced that I would trade my car (Mini Cooper SE 2022) for the EX30, until I test drove it. I wanted the Ultra but there’s no sun shade (and I live in an ultra hot climate), no aircon vents for my kids at the back, no arm rest or cup holders… then the regen is so harsh, and I was told there’s no way to adjust it (it’s either on or off) and I am used to the one pedal drive in my Mini EV. It was disappointing.
Some good reasons to steps up to the XC40 if you can manage that financially. My impression is that the XC40 is more upscale with creature comforts and quality that you’d expect from a Volvo and entry luxury brand.
You can still get the sunshade cover officially from Volvo it's available on their website but a manual one.
@@rvtBC Only viable for this who don't mind the 20% lower range
@@karthikeyansubramaniyan5466 thank you, I don’t the salesman was aware of that .
I also have a 22 Cooper SE, I was thinking about the EX30 to replace it, then I drove it, not impressed. I’ll stick with the MINI for a couple more years.
Need active matrix LED’s
I prefer the current model year badging so glad I’m getting a my24. Only thing I’m gong to approach them on is the steering wheel buttons and get them swapped to my25 covers.
Expecting that many my24 owners will say exactly the same! 😊
I hope Volvo will retrofit the steering wheel controls for models year 2024, since it is malfunction from my point of view.
Would be a pretty legit fix, but I'm expecting they won't.. Perhaps for an additional fee.
Is it possible to see all upgrades and options for 2025 model somewhere?
I'd assume the dealerships have a detailed list/bulletin about it!
Vapor gray is boring? The color is a personal preference! For me, that is the color that suits this volvo perfectly.
So that's my personal preference then 😀
Interesting, I though that most/all car manufacturers used the summer shutdown to implement the changes needed for the production of the new model year. 🤷♂️
Sweden... 😂
so... if I order a EX30 from my dealer today (end of March), will I get the new 2025 model?
I ordered on Saturday, a 2025 model
@@calad6482best car!!!!
HUD as standard. I wouldn’t be buying just now. Also the buttons, come in Volvo your better than that. Really there is people just getting Cars and you think the buttons are not right.
I heard rumors that EX30 production will also take place in Ghent....is there any truth to this ....maybe next yr or so?
That’s correct! From 2025 Gent will start producing the EX30, yay! Made in EU 😎
@@thom-lov Yay, Made in Belgium !!!!!
I know my XC40 out of the Ghent plant has been flawless...kinda sad to turn it back in come May....but actually talking with my Volvo salesman today about purchasing a preowned XC90! Fingers crossed it goes well! @@thom-lov
Where can i find this information? My dealer wants to know
Let him watch this video 😂
Ofcourse , i already send him the video, but i want to see this options on a volvo site for myself and to show him@@thom-lov
Volvo Cars Finland configurator. Dealer bulletin will come once MY25 opens for the NL market. 😊
Thanks Thom, i will have a look at it@@thom-lov
Smart #3 or Ex30? Which is better?
#3 compares to a EX40, not EX30. That’s more comparable to #1
Thanks Thom, but if you see, both the cars built on the same platform and the battery mileage is more or less equivalent on both the cars. Would you see the smart #3 more upgraded version of the ex30 and would you think smart #3 outperform the ex30 in terms of performance?
China tends to only shut down during Chinese new Year, which just was. But then there is NOTHING moving for 2-3 weeks. Shipping is rail, that’s why Volvo is faster than many others these days.
Haha yes I’ve experienced that this recent CNY in Asia for weeks. Fun to experience though 😁
got my EX30 Twin Motor Ultra last week.. I love the car, but too many things are not working. The App, the Infotainment, the UWB key... It's frustrating. Worst thing that happened is a complete failure of the screen for a whole day. It went green, blue, red, black... couldn't see how fast I'm going, no music, nothing. But in general the car is great lol
I suggest you try a HUD app for your smartphone, which gets vehicle speed from GPS satellites. You put your phone on the dashboard in front of you and ir reflects off the windscreen back to your eyesight. I am not sure if the angle of the EX30 is right for this, though.
When are you going to address that the real world range owners are seeing is far off what was reported in the preproduction review?
so they moved the badge and added a raised rib on the buttons thanks for takin 10 minuets to explain that.
lol
Neat car, but just too small for families with baby seats.
The choice of colours is terrible
Sorry I’m Volvo owned by a Chinese company. It might be manufactured in Sweden but I don’t think Swedish uniqueness is still employed. It’s down to Chinese mass production so why would they tell you when they change things? Do they have to wake up and stop being a Volvo wanker?
