Aerodynamic wheel inserts. How does this transfer when summer all season and winter tires are interchanged through the year, often with the winter tires running on steel rims.
As you see reading the comments people do not care about features of this car- the only thing which matters: it is beautiful.... And for such a reason Volvo can further cut cost e.g. removing the driver screen (one of important safety/comfort/ergonomic devices)
@@myslecinaczej8674 You're right - I suspect will be a backward step for some time to come. It's a bit like when Steve Jobs removed the keyboard from the original iPhone.
When will we be able to test drive this car in the UK ? Design is one thing, how does it drives in the real world is sometimes another ! Until I drive this car, it’s just a nice looking video star.
I‘m surprised the interior designer doesn’t talk about the deletion of the driver information module and the arrival of a small ’thing’ above the steering wheel. Would like to know what info will be in the eye of the driver!
@@volvopolestarvideonews so Volvo no longer stands behind their safety theme if reducing distractions while driving. Essential information should be in the eye of the driver and not to the right (centre of the car). By the way not all drivers/owners of the EX30 will be millennials!
@@dolpffwigbers232 Meh. I've driven a Yaris. It was a little odd at first, but since I scan left and right anyway, it was no big deal to check speed lower right instead of just lower.
Not sure why not just include a Heads Up Display (HUD). To show MPH. It’s all people really care about. It’s like, so many brains to make this happen, but no one thinks about the driver perspective.
It's 'Boba Fett' from Star Wars, not 'Bobo" as said at 3:10. I think maybe they're just trying to connect with the younger crowd with that statement. If I squint and close my eyes and imagine, but would I ever say that front end looks like Bobo's helmet, No.
I'd like more details on the rims from the thumbnail. Can't find anything online. Disappointed they weren't mentioned. I'd be swapping out those ugly rims first chance I get.
Only thing is on enquiring in Marshalls of Cambridge three days ago this new model will not bit the streets until some time in 2005 A bit disappointing for anybody that has entered one of the car competitions to win this model, as indeed I did last week.
Nothing mentioned about the battery degradation, any new technology/battery management system can make battery last longer? My i3 is 9 years old now, can drive 65 miles on a single charge in summer.
Fingers crossed that the google based system which controls almost everything in the car does not come with the known glitches that have bricked the 2022 and 2023 current models. Available now. These new cars are basically computers with wheels, an I worry about a simple software issue having the ability to render the car useless
Not only that but people should also consider for how long the software will be supported. Examples are TV and other devices that even thought they are big and expensive, stops getting updated and running new software after 3 year. Even phones have this problem.
To highlight one fact, Volvo is now owned by a Chinese company. But the frequent references to Scandinavia are obviously a preferred sales pitch. Great looking car regardless.
Designed and engineered in Sweden. Geely owns a controlling interest in Volvo and Polestar. they also own controlling interests in Lotus Cars, London Taxi, and Smart. So Geely buys a big piece then stays out of their way and lets them all use their talent to develop great cars. Some of these vehicles, but not all, are built in China.
Volvo is not a Chinese run company. you can see yourself in this video who is responsible for the content in Volvos. Scandinavia is the headquarters of Volvo and they set the parameters for Volvo while Geely sets some of the financing.
No digital instruments above or behind the wheel. Nope. Sorry Volvo but you've missed the mark big time here. Nobody told you to copy Tesla. How much is it asked to place a small LED screen centrally behind the wheel to show km/h and/or other basic features like indicators, safety lights etc? Nobody wants that screen broken and not be able to drive properly anymore. This would make me go for the Polestar 2 .
Volvo is phasing out dealers (turning them into service centers) and will implement online sales for their electric vehicles. So, it's not the usual dealer markup issue as with other brands.
Why dont you let me choose my wheel size? Get some decent exterior colours. Use 4 window switches, not the cheap and nasty ones you have to toggle. I dont like the interior door handle. Otherwise, its a nice car
SUV exteriors bore me and this one does as well. It looks like a cleaner, smaller XC40 with EX90 design language. I think Volvo needs to ditch the old logo and put in an illuminated one, a la the Concept Recharge. That would look better. Inside, however, I mostly love this car. You can't help but to see the relationship with Polestar as a lot of the materials, colors and shapes and the overall feel are very similar. Did Volvo change their seat design and give it a more Zeekr back? Otherwise, it's very much a Volvo. The dash is a modernization of the XC40 as are the door panels but there are big changes. Love the speckled material and if you don't like that, then there is denim or the plainer stuff. I'd prefer a small instrument display but, OK, they deleted it. It's probably too small in the back for 4 full sized adults. Still, the interior design seems more thought out and forward moving than that of the EX90 (which I like as well). I do look forward to Volvo's next-gen sedans and wagons and hope that they start to sell better than the current gen does. They are incredibly nice looking vehicles, IMO.
A lot of talk about Scandinavia, and nordic bla, bla, bla...in a Chinese car. This car has allmost nothing to do with Sweden.....atleast not the sweden i know...or once knew.. I will try it and properly buy one....It does look great.
Stunning car, but you need an agreement to use Tesla Superchargers. Public charging just isn't that reliable, but in a few years, this will be a great alternative to Tesla.
It’s not designed to look extravagantly luxurious like a LEXUS with tons of fake leather these days. Just research materials. A look of luxury does not guarantee authentic leather. The materials in Volvo are recycled to offset carbon imprint and are not meant to look like high end. Most high end cars are no longer even using “real leather”. They are using “leatherette” whatever that’s supposed to be, cause it’s cheaper and they can fool customers. Customers care that a car looks good w/o paying attention to whether authentic materials are really being used. So, in short, that simplistic interior is purely Scandanavian. Perhaps this car is not for you. I have a BMW and a LEXUS 350. I would buy this car in a minute! 😊
Is this car a car or only a politically correct piece of art? Does it have any car functions that make it possible to drive and use as transportation? Nothing in this video indicates that it is made for any use at all….maybe it is just a piece of furniture 😮
Pity it's not available as a conventional or at least a hybrid version. Regardless of anything else, a lot of the world in not going to have the required charging infrastructure for a long time yet.
@@filipepaninho6558 digitei errado, eu quiz dizer, é uma pena não vir também com motor a combustão, seria certamente o líder de vendas dessa categoria ! Carro Elétrico é um saco.
Except there is no such a thing as an S U V...Sport? In your imagination in these hight gravity centre porky vehicles...marketing rubbish. Efficient? An estate can be efficient but these vehicles? Wasteful. You keep cleaning the interiors as well...now it looks like as boring as a Tesla's. Any good bits? I am sure the stupendous Volvo build, reliability and safety will remain as well as the best seats ever but from Volvo I expect much more. Please keep Volvo Estates going, which are much better than this senseless stuff.
One day all these people will realise that these EV's are far worse for the environment that engine vehicles. They're far more dangerous and when the batteries finally give in it will be cheaper to buy a new shitty EV than to replace the battery. These things are a scam, don't be fooled.
Ridiculous car, far to much power, insane, and unsafe, 450 ps really????? More than a Porsche, insane. Chinese build, awful! This a car for the fleet sales and lease market only, after 4, 5 years it is rubbish. Was once great fan of Volvo, owned 760gke, several 240, V70, nowerdays....it is a shame they put the name Volvo on the current cars, worst reliability, rust problems, fit and finish provlems not to mention the ultra thin paint job
This car is BEAUTIFUL, you will sell it like cookies
Excellent video
This EX30 and the sister Zeekr X are by far my 2 fav electric cars: innovative and stylish
no HeadUp-Display, no driver display - that just doesn‘t work for me.
Seriously considering this when it arrives in Australia.
Volvo nailed the rims. So many EV rims look ghastly.
Aerodynamic wheel inserts. How does this transfer when summer all season and winter tires are interchanged through the year, often with the winter tires running on steel rims.
Absolutely the most beautiful car.
Absolutely love it🔥👍❤️
Great Design! Finally a Volvo that is not too big for a parking space 👍 Either the Polestar 2 or the Volvo ex30 are in my choices for a new car 🤗
Polestar 2 easily wins there.
Clever use of diverse range of people showcasing the car.
Feels like an Apple Computer advert!! Cool car
I will own 1 for sure! Drop dead #gorgeous !!
Wish the back seat was bigger or can slide back into the cargo area. The Chevy Bolt is small but has a large back seat.
Great looking car, beautiful design. Incomplete video, what about the performance specs, range, charging, acceleration etc.😊

Twin motors 0-60 in 3.6 secs ♥️ fastest volvo ever
Awesome. But please give me a rear center folding armrest with cup holders
Mind-blowing
Why aren't the wheels in the thumbnail featured more? They look so much better than these thick, multi-spoke turbine things.
I was JUST To ask the same thing
Great looking car, but not driver display or HUD seems stupid.
Can you fit a roof box? Love the car
Yes, and a a bicycle holder
When will we be able to test drive this car in the UK ? Design is one thing, how does it drives in the real world is sometimes another ! Until I drive this car, it’s just a nice looking video star.
The car is shaped like a brick and has aero wheel covers?
I still can’t comprehend even the hazard button being digital instead of physical

There is no screen. The "thing" above the steering wheel is sensors for the DMS (Driver Monitoring System)

bring to Aussie Land ASAP please with the cross country version. Also please consider V2L/G even if it is an option.
No rear vents?
Another formerly 20 Ks car now retailing at 40 - 50.000 €… what a future
I ordered one, I think it’s a stretch calling it a SUV tho. More like a VW Golf station wagon/hatchback.
what is the solution to all the batteries after their life - it pollutes more ?
I would like to know how to start the car and stop it.
レクサスのLBXとどちらを買ったらいいでしょか？
My new dream car.
Lot of talk about recycled material, which is great, however, how about something practical like a heads up display? Thanks
Large central touch screen is a big turn off for me, anoder turn off is range and price.
Espectacular!!!!!!
Which Apple phone is this
One big problem for me is： I don't know which one should I choose, Volvo EX30, Polestar 4, or Zeekr X. They are all great EVs in this segment.
why there is no classic color metallic paints? :-( only strange colors and black / white... we want a classic denim blue !!

Now even more desirable with NACS support 👍

This is a winner
Will these be able to use Tesla charging stations? Lol

Lovely car. Shame about the advertising drivel!
Beautiful car but it's a 45k ford fiesta
