Finally someone calling it what it is... a hatchback

[markhamilton]

you know it's a quick car when your passenger makes little squeaking noises when you accelerate. i always love the attention to detail in your reviews.

[ellistreloar]

Regarding driver info on the large display in the dash. Two things.
1. Volvo have researched the distraction time comparing eye movement down/up to view drivers display behind steering wheel; with side to side eye movement to view the large screen display. Volvo found no difference in distraction time from ‘eyes ahead’ between the two choices.
2. Our biological human design provides much wider field of view horizontally than vertically. The eyelids get in the way of vertical peripheral vision. Therefore the potential is that side to side eye movement allows greater use of peripheral vision to observe the road ahead.

[bidanmashauri]

Always here for your content, no bias, practical review and your explanation is just on point. Keep up the good work.

[LCKRWLL]

Did you have the chance to test the "sound bar" speaker system? I was wondering how the soundscape compares to a standard setup with speakers in the door cards.

[hormeesis]

missing dash display is a real dealbreaker

[azgman]

I hate the center only instrument panels. Too many years of driving conventional vehicles I suppose!
Excellent review, as always, Thomas!

[LarryNgetich]

Lia is the official gigglemeter for aceleration😂

[zdenekanyz]

As the ergonomic expert I can say they yellow fillers for storage areas are designed as contrast background not to forget something like black/dark objects such as mobile phones, wallets etc… this is smart thinking, I like the idea.

[fordgrunt]

Great review! Have been hanging your Volvo EX30 drive review.

Big fan here, I always watch you EV reviews 👍

[leakmasters]

The deal breaker for me in Australia is lack of sun shade on glass roof.

[tomaszwroblewski]

I wonder if all these driving settings (e.g. one pedal driving) remains set when close veihicle and come back?

[eZstah]

Great, but would still pick Megane E-tech. Interior is just unmatched.

[davidcottrell]

Very impressed! I like the open feel inside, but I wouldn’t want to be a rear passenger, and it really needs a sun roof shade. The only thing I wonder about is the One Pedal drive with the RWD vs the AWD. Volvo seems to have done a good job of it, but I’m not sure I’d trust RWD to slow down when it’s slippery out. Thanks for a solid, detailed review, Thomas!

[nealeTH]

Fantastic EV. Just a shame they don’t have a small screen in front of the steering wheel with key info such as the speed.

[caitlin_stahn]

Another great video, thanks Autogefühl team! I have to thoroughly disagree with you on the seat trim/upholstery this time though, Thomas. I was thrilled to see that Volvo is now offering a light colour with wool-mix again. I love wool :-) I don't like the feeling of bare skin on plastic-based upholstery (such as leatherette) or leather AT ALL, especially in summer when it gives a sticky feeling. Good to have options in any case :-) Nice touch that they are using flax in the interior. Would be great if the upholstery on the seats would be made of fabric that is made of 100% natural fibers.

[StaffA]

So much to like about this car. However, no drivers display or heads up display is a dealbreaker.

The EX30 is nearly a perfect vehicle, with the exception of a missing HUD. With Volvo being a safety-first car company, I'm rather surprised that the opted NOT to have a Heads Up Display, which will cause the driver to take their eyes off the road. Please reconsider adding a HUD as optional!
