The centre glovebox is a good idea, makes it more accessible to the driver so they don’t have to lean over to get something out of the glovebox.

Doug is the type of guy that triggers everyone's google devices in the worst possible way. I was actually okay for air conditioning right now, thanks Doug.

That little zoom to the screen at 13:19 was the most cinematic shot ever in a Doug review

[ericm]

Your review of the EX30 was more thorough and complete than any other review of this vehicle. It totally changes my opinion of this car.

[brushedaluminum]

Having the measurements of the trunk space in various configurations printed on the tailgate is genius. Never knew I wanted that before seeing it here, but I love it.

[jakubknotek]

I'm very used to operating screens, but I really like my buttons in my car. Screens are just impossible to operate without looking at them, while buttons can be operated without looking.

[GenSparks]

That is actually a very nice ev for the price. Volvo really stepped up.

[ritual]

I’d rather have physical buttons for every day controls, such as the aircon. As for the voice control, I was sick of the “hey Google” after the 3rd time Doug said it. But I still love the amount of enthusiasm Doug brings to his reviews.

[spooksmagee]

Volvo is gonna sell a zillion of these little things. Definitely at the top of my list for a first EV.

[Arcadium]

I want this vehicle so bad, i love the speckle recycled interior and how considered everything is. Can't wait for these to have the NACS port in the US!

[amazingjason]

Doug is the type of guy to say that the best cars are electric cars while exclusively owning and driving gas guzzlers.

[fstap]

Nice to see an EV at a normal person price point and actually gives you what you want instead of doing stupid stuff like so many EV companies do. This isn't just a good EV, its a good car i could actually see myself buying

[PaNativ]

Doug is the kind of guy who gives an electric vehicle “a little gas”….

[walkerl.]

Doug’s the type of guy to repeat the hey Google command enough times to drive a viewers smart home crazy 😂

[joelkelsey]

So happy that Volvo made an affordable electric car that looks like a normal vehicle

[johnmarkmines]

As someone who drives a 2004 Saturn Ion, it's just nice to be represented.

[superregera]

It's not easy travelling with a full-size office chair, but Doug demands a comfortable seat even when filming in dingy parking garages and I, for one, respect that.

[frankierodriguez]

Hi Doug, Great video man. This is really a winner for sure. For that price I'd say this is the prettiest Volvo in many years, fully loaded with the most advanced tech, everything in the car is no nonsense designed and put together and then again, the price range put all its rivals to sleep. Well done Volvo. Well done Doug !

[Wheatybic]

i love how down to earth you come off still after all these years

[thomascain]

My goodness I am so excited for this car. I work in a Volvo Retailer and just placed my order yesterday! Merry Christmas to me!
