VOLVO EV WINTER TIPS & TRICKS | WINTER SPECIAL 1

Do you know if preconditioning the climate also preconditions the battery too when connected to the mains?

[@warrenparlee8083]

While driving my C40 on the highway during heavy snow fall, I like using the rear fog lights.

[@thom-lov]

Good addition Warren! Thanks.

Thanks for all these informations, I'm getting my C40 in 3 weeks, can't wait! I am in Canada, so I guess I'll see the winter capabilities quite rapidly!

[@thom-lov]

Happy to help! That’s awesome, they are still quite rare I understood? Nice Christmas present 😉

Got my C40 in january, and I REALLY enjoy it! We had a few days with temperatures below -30 and while the range was significantly lower I really did appreciate sitting in a warm car in the morning while most of my neighbours were trying to remove ice from the windshield. This is my first Volvo, had an Audi before : Absolutely no regrets!

[@snorkelgutt]

Great video! Cant wait to try out my C40 Twin come winter,live in Norway so roads can be tricky, but looking forward to it anyway:)

[@eddmelter1012]

thank you for the battery icon explanation for when it is below temp. I couldent find this anywhere in the manual.

[@thom-lov]

Happy to help! 😉

[@MustafaKemalMavi]

Great videos, mate! Thanks.

[@thom-lov]

Thx 😊

you make the best Volvo EV videos!!!

Thanks so much! 😊

Watching this video again after taking delivery of my XC40 full EV. Ordered in early 2022 and received end of Dec. Of course, I got the 2023 model and surprise! They added on the protection items and charged me over $600 cdn for it. For mats!!!! Inferior mats for a true Canadian winter, in my opinion. The dealer said that all 2023 in my trim level come with that pkg now and they could not remove the charge or the items. I was pretty angry as I had already purchased tuxmats here in Canada - started off the delivery with a negative feeling, unfortunately.

[@jenssch]

Thanks for the extra Information 👍🏻

[@thom-lov]

Happy to help! 😊

[@shaungregory1789]

East UK daytime temp was 0c or below for 2 weeks. Only got 190miles on a 90% charge.

[@thebutterman2232]

Any winter wheel/tire recommendations?

[@svenskbibel]

2:04. Menar du att man kan stänga av bilen men ändå låta värmen vara på och cirkulera? Hur länge då? Motsvarar det Teslas camp mode?

[@Goonercurt]

Are these features on the core c40 or only the max spec?

[@Rei_n1]

Has the offroad mode in electric c40 been downgraded from 50kmh to 30kmh? Even 50kmh in my "old" xc40 recharge was little too limited for some winter fun. 70kmh or more would have been prefered :)

[@thom-lov]

It goes until max 40kmh/25pmh. If you exceed that it will go into the usual driving mode. So pretty slow still.. ;-)

[@FrankBerzau]

Is there a way to pre-heat the battery without using Google maps? I prefer Apple CarPlay for navigation.

[@thom-lov]

Sadly not (yet)...

[@norbertmayer7005]

Do you use proper winter tyres or the recharge tyres?

[@thom-lov]

I have the Recharge all season tires, as winters here aren’t that severe..

[@WinkelHoof]

The recharge tires are not good in the winter, get good winter tires.

[@mdshovel]

Mind the Police on that roof :D

[@thom-lov]

LOL!!

[@biginers]

😒 When you hear "plug your car overnight" many times but it is not that simple since I don't live in a house

[@thom-lov]

😅

[@donaldwhite2807]

No volume. Can’t hear the audio 2:00
