Thanks for sharing was waiting for your video!
Thanks very much for the review, I've driven both the SM and twin and am still undecided which to choose. Great car though and will be buying one.
Useful commentary: thank you for your insights
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks!
Perfect car for me. 90%+ of my driving is now local. Twice a year on 200 mile journey.
It drives so well. The comfort is tangible.
The Google Voice assistant can deal with music, heating and a few other items.
200kw motor will last well compared to its competitors.
I like it so much.
So I’ve ordered White Extended Range Ultra.
I am happy to hear that!
Same here but the gray one. Truly a great car and will only get better. My brother work here in Sweden at Volvo cars. They working a lot on the over air updates and looking at all the feedback from there Facebook group where they go through everything that people have to say.
@@andreasl4507 Tgats interesting and reassuring information.
I am looking forward to having my 1st EV. Charger was fitted earlier this month.
I will thoroughly embrace this new way of driving to give it the best chance. Without listening to all those “doom sayers” I will decide for myself!
@@Odinscrow1962 sounds great man. I I Have had Tesla 3 long range 2019, for two years now, I’m upgrading to Volvo EX30. Taking delivery on Friday ✔️😁 havnt had charger at home like you do becouse I get to charge at work. But if I charge home I just do the normol contact and charge slow or I go and fast chargers in weekend if I did go somewhere but I getting a charger installed to in about one month becouse gonna change up my work abit so just gonna charge at work 1 time a week. Earlier I charged around 2 times and then 1 time friday for the weekend. but I got a long way to drive. EX30 also got way better range then my Tesla atleast in the winter and also does way better in winter. I had a EX30 over a weekend 2 months ago up in north Sweden winter storm and it was way better.
@@Odinscrow1962 good luck with your EV journey. Will do great for sure now when got charger fitted at home. It can’t get better then that ✔️
How did you find the Hardon Karmon system?
Really good! Not mindblowing, but really good.
And you get free HUD with it :)@@RoamingNorway
Efficiency is something that is very often at odds with aesthetics. If you want an efficient car, you need a very low CX, and that can only be achieved by making very aerodynamic lines, which usually turn cars into something... I don't dare to say ugly, but boring. Examples Model 3 or Ioniq 6. As efficient as they are unattractive. It is something that you should think about when buying your car.
No autohold option with awd mode??
In performance AWD mode. Normal driving mode will kick in AWD as well.
@@RoamingNorway did i understand correctly. So when the perf. Awd mode is engaged you dont have a option to activate auto hold or parking brake?
Please Focus the Camera next time. I see a shoulder and a blurry Windscreen...
"Has great drive train tuning," goes on to list all of the reasons why it's not, lol. XC40, C40, and P2 legitimately have best in class execution so I think EX30 can get there with some updates.
For sure 🎉
Tidligere tenkte jeg at dette kunne være en aktuell bil for meg litt frem i tid, men.....uten en egen førerskjerm er den uaktuell. Det har derimot brødrene Smart #1 og Zeekr X
Polestar 4 ❤
It looks like you have the Indigo interior, which is not the best interior you can get. Mist is the most premium interior.
Understood! Thought it felt really nice.
Facts
I think the trick with any Car now is low mileage year old. This Volvo will lose 30% of its sticker price in the fist year and then it’s very attractive price wise. The sweet spot is the long range RWD. It dives better for the money. Battery tech is changing so fast they could add 100 miles real world to the range within three or four years and keep the price similar.
You put some buttons and HUD or small screen and it would be even better. Cheaper than the Model 3. To be honest I’m looking at the new Renault 5 now over this. I was in the Volvo and it looked great in the flesh, I found the interior a bit boring but fine.
Disagree, if you are selecting ultra trim. All that extra performance and the safety of awd for just another £2.5k
Not in Norway it won't. 2nd hand cars are typically 10% or so down after a couple of years, with El bil depreciating less
@@wayneoxborough351facts. It’s only 30% and more on the Teslas. Becouse they are the one dumping the price of there cars. Truly disgusted by a company to dump prices so there early customers get fuked. Atleast Volvo stay around the same and goes down by time like a real company should donit
I agree that efficiency is a big issue.180-200 miles range is just not good enough. The one pedal driving is poor, and the continuous interruptions from looking away eg to look at the touchscreen was so off putting I excluded it as a realistic option.
Cry baby. The car as extended range does more then 200 miles in Swedish winter so will for sure do longer where anyone els live.
faster charging and efficiency will come though, right, though updates
I believe it when I see it.
@@RoamingNorway came with Polestar 2. Expect it to come here also
Will come though over air updates. My brother work at Volvo. They do a lot of work for the over air updates that will get going
@@dmndgdl Nice to hear!
Actually, let's wait and see. Had mine since last Thursday. Got into the car for first time and 100% charge said 239km range. Dual motor performance. This is wrong.
Seems decent for a chinese car.
Swedish styling with Chinese battery tech what’s not to like. The Chinese are years ahead in manufacturing and battery chemistry and can build units to cost that lowers the price.
Volvo cars got more workers in Sweden in China and it’s a Swedish company with a Chinese owner. Volvo cars just does the manufacturing in china. Volvo cars got around 7000 workers in Sweden.
I extensively test drove the EX30, Smart #3, Tesla M3 Highland and the Model Y RWD. Out of all the cars the EX30 was the worst, it felt cheaper inside, fidgety to drive with a top heavy feeling and the rear leg room was laughable. Delivery times were also estimated to be 6-8 months which is laughable considering a Tesla can be ordered and delivered (from factory not inventory) within 2 weeks. On top of all that the range was not on par with the other cars. If you want the fast acceleration and build I would go with the Smart #1 or #3 Brabus. The car I eventually chose was the Model Y RWD (BYD battery) because for the money it was the best deal @ €43k and 0% finance. Its mature enough in its release cycle that a lot of issues have been resolved, so it feels like the most accomplished too. Build quality may not be on par with the others, but its more than good enough.
I'd buy a #3 (or Zeeker X) in a second but it's not available here and importing one is complicated with leasing and warranty. I'm stuck with the EX30 :(
I drove the #1 and the ex30. Space wise and features, #1 wins, but the ex 30 is too funny to drive and with a nicer look. Unfortunately, there is no zeekr in my country, and Tesla dealer Tesla is to far (the nearest official Tesla officine is 700km Sestu from my house). Volvo dealers are nice and prepared, so I guess even their technical support, and this is a great plus for me. Still undecided if but it or not.
Not driven the Smart but to me the Volvo driving experience and interior was in a different league to a Tesla model 3.
Not true at all. For me and a lot others the EX30 truly take the price. It’s a fantastic car. Some small system bugs but will be fixed by over air updates. Truly a great car!!!
@@andreasl4507 do you get paid to write stuff like this or do you just enjoy simping over billion dollar corporations ? :))
It's a decent car, would be a great car if it was 25-30% cheaper or had some more features. Stop drinking the coolaid !
