Thanks for making this video and opinion on the quality of these speakers, you are the first to review it, even these big name ars reviewers don't talk about it in details, missed such big important details!
Hello thanks for the video. Is it possible to make a video of the automatic parking capabilities of the EX30? I haven't seen a video about it anywhere. Thanks!
I think the audio test would be better if you did it through an app installed in the car like Spotify for example since the audio will be of better quality than through Bluetooth.
Hi, thanks for the good insight. Can you do in one of your next videos insight in the interior preheating and pet mode/keep climate on functionality (can the car be locked, would light switch off, any time limit, consumption)?
As I understand the two sound setups. Core: Soundbar with 4 speakers, tweeter and midrange left and right. And an airwoofer in the front right, under the plenum. HK: Soundbar with 5 speakers, tweeter and midrange left and right and adding a midrange in the middle. One midrange in each rear door. The subwoofer in the luggage right side. And also the airwoofer in the front right under the plenum. So you could say two subwoofers.
Thanks Christoffer, I have watched all your videos about EX30, they are really pretty useful, especially for me, future EX30 owner (April). I was watching a lot of other videos but could not find the Auto Pilot video where car is adjusting the speed according the traffic signs. How it works, is the car able to reduce speed automatically once recognize speed limit and then increase it after it is canceled?
@@theelectriccarmagazine Hi Cristoffer do you have a tow hook? I heard that you can not use any cruise control (no dumb cc or pilot) while using the tow hook.. can you verify this?
Need to add sensors and that will drive up the costs. Keep in mind it’s Volvo’s lowest end cross over SUV . I’m not even aware of any cars that have human presence sensor inside.
Tried the car, and the soundbar is really horrible compared to speakers in the front, doors and back. The virtual surround sound is really hollow and if you hear radio hosts or podcasts their voices sound like they are in the bathroom, not good!
I agree with you on the hollow part when there’s radio hosts speaking etc, as I had the same thought when I test drove it, however i highly encourage to try it with Spotify, UA-cam or even your phone connected. It’s a completely different and amazing experience, and the sound thing is nothing an over the air update couldn’t fix, but I agree, the current state for radio binge listening is horrible.

Drove the Single Motor Extended Range in South Africa Yesterday, my petrol feels like driving a Horse after Driving the EX30.🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Hi. Where did you rent one from in SA? Prices?

Problem would be copyright then I think, unless there was a UA-cam app
@@DFWsCarsI searched Spotify there are copyright free songs (so says the titles…)

Work during the week but will save suggestions for the weekend :)

1,040 watts is going to sound sooo over driven for this system.
Is that sound system standard on the performace ultra?
Excellent thank you!
My advice is to disable the quantum surround and leave the setting in rear setting. Best audio fidelity. I own an EX30 plus :)

No pilot assist video yet, will try to record one during the weekend.

@@thomaskampshoff9995oh really? Yes, I have a tow hook, maybe I have to rent a trailer to try it out asap!
Mine EX30 will arrive in may. Can I charge a iPad or phone when I’m leaving the car? Will it charge mine devices in the meantime?
Do a charging graph and analysis on your trip.
How does it handle on a motorway/highway
Only driven it on dry asphalt so far but good. Have a video coming whwre I have driven it alot on motorway :)
Anybody knows the Bluetooth connection audio specs? Is there something like aptX HD, LDAC...or its low end like AAC or SBC???
It wouldn't be bad if the sound focus recognized whether there is a passenger or just the driver.
