I've been a long time reservation holder, but just got a Polestar 2 instead. EX30 is amazing on paper, but the real world takes just aren't great. I care about the drive characteristics and it seems like a big step back from last gen Volvo EVs. The Performance mode losing one pedal drive is a real shame. The delay in power delivery under normal mode is even more disappointing. So you are basically carrying around an underwhelming front motor that activates sometimes? Soft suspension to combat the short wheelbase is also a let down. Even though it's faster on paper and there are no test drives in my country for EX30, I feel good about my Polestar 2 choice.
I totally agree with you. I drove the ex30 this weekend and the power delay is really tangible. The overall quality is bad, the buttons on the stearing wheel is horrible. Its not a car that should represent Volvo. Polestar 2 sound like much better choice. Congrats!
The thing with voice commands is that you need to know what voice commands you can make. Also in my Volvo I can adjust wiper sensitivity easily using the stalk and sometimes I will make multiple adjustments within a few seconds. I wouldn’t want to be using a voice command each time in that situation.
Appreciate the honest review. Was considering the EX30 over the EC40, since the latter is getting a bit dated. Seems like you just made decision way easier
At around 7:00, which drive mode do you have? (Which modes does it have at all?)
I would assume, since it is RWD in base mode, the front drive unit disconnects unless needed -> minimum* latency of 100-200ms in cold weather for physical reengagement.. half a second delay wouldn't be surprising for a non-racing application
Removing all the physical buttons is just penny pinching and a bad idea same as Tesla who wants to mess around in multiple menus to find stuff that you need while driving. Bring back the buttons.
Hey Google...
@@EdwardBartel and Hay Google sure as hell don't work correctly on my phone not does the speech command's on my current cars stupid AI , buttons rule.
Thanks for this video Kris. You have highlighted some really important features that a lot of other reviews don’t show. I change the adaptive cruise distance a lot during driving. The configuration in loads of submenus makes this car a no-go for me now.
One of my main problems with the car is the one pedal drive experience. It’s not well calibrated at all, especially noticeable in slow driving. When coming to a full stop the mechanical brakes are way too noticeable, not smooth. And the one pedal drive doesn’t work in reverse.
It doesn’t do EV stuff well or software and it’s packing isn’t as good as the competition.
Very disappointing.
Volvo already said they will add OTA updates to the one-pedal driving. And speaking of competition, how's the one-pedal driving in the ID.4?
I'm getting concerned about all the negative feedback all the TH-cam reviews have about the menu systems. No one discusses that a simple "Hey Google" prompt will adjust almost anything in Volvos. Can't you simply say, "Hey Google, change the wiper sensitivity to Low" if you want to adjust this setting?
just good voice commands are not good enough - so we should have a minimum array of buttons or stock and if not call it out. If you are on the phone or talking with somebody in the car and face a situation you need to react fast, its a security problem, I totally agree with it - and there is only one reason why they try it out - cost reduction. It's less secure.
@@bavariancarenthusiast2722 it works fine enough on my XC40... Talking on the phone, driving AND fishing with buttons is a recipe for disaster. A simple voice command keeps your eyes on the road.
@@EdwardBartel I respect that it works for you - but not for the majority of drivers - I want both options and will not buy an EX30 or Tesla M3 because of it.
How about it doesn't understand you as often as it has to?!! I've had android Volvos on loan for many, many weeks and they simply don't understand me. (I'm a swede that has lived in the UK for almost two decades so I'm fluid in both Swedish and English. Sorry, it doesn't understand me) Give me hard buttons ANY time!
Agree. Nobody mentions the voice control.
Wow, I got so lost with the wipers.
I had twin motor ultra for 2 hours today. Some points, its suspension needs work, on anything other than a smooth road it throws you around like a bucking bronco, not comfortable at all. Too many beeps, if you look sideways at the speedo or map it beeps at you, it’s desperately needs a HUD or driver screen, in a flash Volvo has destroyed decades worth of effort promoting safety. Our last 4 cars have had HUDs, I won’t buy another car without one.
Driving it is like driving an old school 80’s turbo car, stomp the throttle and not much happens then bang off she goes when the front wheels hook up, it’s like turbo lag.
I really wanted to like this car. If Volvo can fix the suspension and add a HUD I’d take another look.
What are you talking about when you say gears? If I am not mistaken, this car (and most of not all EVs) have a single speed transmission. So no gears change at all.
I said it feels like it has to down shift under full acceleration. This is because of how the drivetrain is tuned. The front motor is disconnected in normal driving and has to engage with a physical clutch. This in combination with how it is tuned makes it feels like it has to down shift several gears.
If you turn off the driver's aids, are they still off next time you start the car?
Yes, this in due to new EU regulations that come into affect from July 2024.
That Luleå prenonciation was very impressive, almost sounded like you had a practise or two after the last video😉
Look forward to some further testing of this new Volvo and especially the infotainment/menu debacle.
Cheers mate
😅😅🙈🙈
How long from 0 to V-Max on the ice? You surely must have had a straight long enough to try that with that power?
I have no idea why Volvo are really taking the worst from Teala and implementing it to their own products. (While there are other car makers that take the best of Tesla instead... There is plenty to copy)
Kris. I was very disappointed to test drive the AWD EX30 a day before I was due to pick up the car I had ordered. The OPD was crap, having to delve into the touchscreen to turn on lights, fog lights etc was not an option for me. The total lack of storage for the driver, the window switch button and I could not sit in the back seats, cranked at an angle with nowhere for my feet. So glad I dodged this bullet. Volvo should hang their head in shame for accepting this Chinesium clone
Buy the new Smart, it’s the same basic car but better engineered.
I know, I drove the Brabus version, but there is no heated steering wheel in the UK, an essential for an EV
@@xyredmax it doesn’t get that cold in the UK. I live in Norway don’t use the heated wheels in the cars I’ve had with them. Wheels take a couple of minutes use to warm up.
It is of course personal choice, but having driven EV's for 12+ years, I would not have a car without a HSW. I also suffer with poor circulation, so gloves are not an option either. Anyway, paying so much for an EV, it should have what you want shouldnt it?
Gangnam Style
no one gonna change steering wheel mode while driving. just set it to most heavy all the time.
First* drive I think. :P
I think its ugly and hate the tesla approach, I will just buy the good old xc40 recharge
You guys planned to meet or this happened just accidentally? 😂
Not planned, Kristian was just hanging out in the middle of nowhere in northern Sweden 😅😅
@@KrisRifa 😂😅 - which is why he just happened to be wearing a mic when you stumbled upon him. 😉😉😉
I do like the occasional "team up" video to break up the rhythm. Nicely done!
@@EdwardBartel exactly 🤣🤣
This video can be summed up in two words, "Hey Google." Honestly, you need to understand the target demographic for this SDV (Software-Defined Vehicle). Some of your criticisms are fair. The car isn't 100% AWD, but complaining about going through a menu to adjust rain sensitivity is likely not a game changer for who this car is meant for.
The car on paper sounded great. Order in and waited 8mo for a test drive.
Well....was NOT worth the wait. Awful car.
Efficiency terrible (35kWh/100km) at 10oC 40mph avg speed, park assistant can't detect spaces and instead tried to reverse into a parked car, software terrible (the radio didn't even work!! It's 2024!), v top heavy drive, one pedal waaaay too soft so you have to brake anyway.
Obvs cancelled the order immediately.
Imo this car is so bad, especially at the price point, that I suspect Volvos reputation could be in tatters if it doesn't quietly try to shelve this disaster of a car
