    Nice to know there's a bit of a buffer below 0% SoC. Some of the software issues you mentioned are to be expected for a new model car. I'm sure Volvo will address these issues through OTA updates.

      @@MasterChief37 I would prefer a driver display or hud but I didn’t find it awkward glancing sideways rather than downwards to monitor my speed. My concerns are with everything being monitored through one display is it is huge single point of failure if it malfunctions. I would say the though that the biggest flaw in the design are the haptic buttons on the steering wheel, really hit and miss to use at the moment, whether software updates can fix this remains to be seen….

    Thanks Kris, great video. I'm considering buying the EX30 and have been very impressed with the test drives I've had, love the work you've done proving range and charging. Probably will buy, can't make up my mind on which motor, twin or single.

      Depends where you’re buying it. In Denmark it’s similarly priced to Model 3 RWD. The cheapest EX30 is like a base MacBook….you don’t really want it, you want to upgrade the RAM and SSD and when you do, you’re suddenly trading blows with M3/MY, ID.4 etc

    Interesting size Volvo. Hilarious driving to 0 charge. Good job. Greetings from Collierville, Tennessee. I owned 2 ICE Volvos when my boys were young. Both served us well for over 110,000 miles. I visited Gothenburg Volvo to help improve their disc brakes.

      Worst part about Volvo (and Polestar 2) - pads fuse to the rotor if they are mildly wet at park. No other EV/ICE I've owned had this problem. So bad you have to floor it to break free from park, chunks tear, stick, and clunk every revolution.

    The thing that "rattles" me the most is it's consumption. Compared to very comparible cars (with even higher CW values) like a Kia Niro, it's just like 20%+ more consumption at the same circumstances. Even mine own Polestar 2 dual motor with enormous tires wil do this kind of consumption figures (also seen in you Excel at the end). All the other boxes are checked by Volvo. Fun looking car, it's a B segment SUV, so don't expect to much space in the back, but in the front (where you are sitting) it's quite marvelous. Good ride quality, android auto is so much beter then all the other infotainment systems (its even on par with the Tesla I had before). Pricewise it's quite comparible, performance is on par and even more, only that consumption..
    Driving an EV to 0% SOC is something you wil do sooner or later as an owner, and a EV is very predictable, so no worries there. But this EX30 will make it quite an obligation.

    How annoying noises the car makes when speeding or losing attention. Everyone is talking about it, but no one has shown them on video. Do you have a sound recording somewhere on the video?

    Thanks for the interesting results, particularly the consumption of 20.5 kWh at -1° to 4° with a speed of 95.8 km/h. I noticed the very different results from similar tests all with a speed of around 100 km/h. th-cam.com/video/HX_XP54qYa8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ydop0UY4R5b5KUmS&t=545: 19.1 kWh at 9°, slightly wet road? (most likely cruise control set to 100 km/h, in reality probably somewhat less contributing to the low consumption in combination with the warmer temperature). th-cam.com/video/8C3F_66h-c4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0uEUh6SChXcRdbtZ&t=959: 21.8 kWh at 7°, dry road, is on the other hand very high. Thus, it seems that wind, driving style (although probably all used cruise control as much as possible), and topography have a considerable influence in these similar tests (all seem to have used the same tires).

    Why don't you charge the car more at each stop? Surely there is no normal person who drives their EV the way you do?
    And why do range tests at highway speeds? Shouldn't it be better and more realistic to do it at lower speeds?
    For example 80-90 km/h

    • @KrisRifa
      @KrisRifa  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I explain why in the video, several times. How did you miss it? But I'll explain it again. The point of the test is to complete the route in with the shortest charging time possible. Hence, charging the car just enough to be on my way.
      As for you other question, this is not a range test. I do that in another video which is called "range test". Those tests are done at 120kph, which is the around the speed limit for most of my viewers. And offers the shortest range for the cars that are tested. If you can get for example 300km at 120kph, you get even more at 100kph, and even more at 80 kph, and even more then at 60kph.
      I only have these cars for a week at a time, and can't all different types of tests in all different scenarios and conditions.

    this is BS review. what I need to know is the size of the battery, the speed when testing (hopefully 120 because with 100 you don’t get anywhere) and number or kilometers done. simple. anything besides that is not useful

      Excuse me? First of, this is a Long Trip Test, not a Review. I've done 17 videos testing different aspects of the Volvo EX30, just pick the one that answers your questions. If you want to know the range at 120KPH, watch my RANGE TEST. SIMPLE. You are complaning about something this video does not set out to answer. It is like going to a cake store, calling it a bullshit store because they don't sell hardware supplies.
      The Long Trip Test is a very useful test that shows and compares how different EVs behave and perform on a long trip. Very useful for a lot of people. It is not bullshit just because you don't find it useful.
