This was one of the best long reviews ever presented I reckon. Even better than Mr Watson's 😅

[martincheffert]

you are the only one to talk about the payement over the air and V2L V2G. kudos to you !

When there are no buttons it's good you mention the voice activation but I don't think I've ever seen a test of whether a car's voice system is good enough to make up for a lack of physical controls.

I run a XC60, superb underated car, no problems at all in five years build quality is second to none, and although I’m not a EV convert, this is the only one I would consider would be a Volvo. To slam the door the door is the best test.

I'd rather the EV9 to be honest :)

[MrNozyk]

Seriously, who's buying this kind of car? Who needs 7 seats? Most of the time there's only one person who drives and that's it.

LOL... The Ikea bit is funny. I guess a Škoda Kodiaq test must be with kegs of tasty Pilsner beer 😅

[Decranz-sbpg]

It's a dream car! Very beautiful and future safe! It will give you many years of excellent and safe driving!🤩

[urbanstrencan]

Just simply Volvo, but the battery tech and efficiency isn't really it's strong point.
We need wagons from Volvo V90 or V6 Cross Country ❤❤❤.
Great video 👍😉

Fantastic review, I guess the location helps but even so, an impressive episode. Taxi light aside, I think it’s a good looking machine although the interior is perhaps playing the ‘understated’ theme a bit too strongly at this price point. It’s also looking a little out of step, with many manufacturers abandoning the no button approach after strong negative feedback. I think there could be a wider problem for Volvo though, the car is late and feels like it’s been around a while now. Some of interest has inevitably waned as other interesting alternatives from the likes of Kia and Hyundai have come along. Those manufacturers also seem to be capable of making their software work. Ultimately, Volvo’s about turn on scrapping saloon and estate production and a facelift for the XC90 tells you all you need to know about EVs - the path to electrification is expensive and not enough people are prepared to pay the cost to convert.

LiDAR was introduced first 2 years ago with Lotus Eletre, so it's an overstatment that Volvo is the first car with said technology. 15:30

Hi Kris, I have a 2017 XC90 R Design. I want to upgrade to a newer model, I feel this upgrade should have been done in 2019/20 or 2022 at the latest. It's too late for this light update. If it had been done earlier, I would have bought one a 22 model now.

Very nicely filmed guys 👌and good to here the fair criticisms of the car

[roblillack]

I’m just three minutes into the vid, but I cannot unsee how the bumpers’ colors aren’t matching the rest of the car. 😂

[CaryInVictoria]

Good review except I thought you were too harsh in complaining about the car's software gliches. The XC40 and C40 also had some software problems at launch but they were fixed fairly quickly with over-the-airware software updates.

[MrBobberone]

On our C40 with software ota updates we saw a massive increase in mileage, 20% more than the beginning (380 km at the beginning, which was less than the 440km promised, but now after two years we have a 480km real world range)

What Car? deserved at least a million subscribers 🙌🏻

[Dominator]

Alone the lack of buttons for mirrors and climate control will put the car out my buying list. Happy that my EV9 still have all of these.

[TomanswerAi]

great non nonsense review. Like the style

[Donkjnr]

So the car recognises a profil based on mobile phones and then sets the seat, mirrors and steering wheel for that profile.

Which is null and void when your partner walks to the car before you when you are the one driving.
