Let me guess , it’s the price of a 3 bedroom semidetached in Roscommon ?

[@NobbyOnCars]

Ah you might have to settle for a two bed ground floor apartment I think

[@SDK2006b]

Yeah, those complaining about the price of the EV9 are about to receive a shock on the price of this.

[@AngnNi]

⁠will they? It's going to be a bit more than the current t8 xc90 I'd assume

[@gerryrowe6389]

But not as sophisticated

[@srodigital]

I never imagined that I would ever see the day when car brands like Volvo would be described so casually as costing ~£100,000. There must be a lot of near millionaires that crave such a vehicle from Volvo. If only proper professional jobs had had the remuneration packages multiplied by the same factor that motor manufacturers have increased their vehicle prices by in recent times. Love the brand and the XC90 T8 Dual Motor, but hell the pricing and no doubt insurance, as well as the road tax ballistic increase once everyone (who can afford it) has gone electric. Thanks for the video. Stay safe.

[@pad4]

A family car at that price should have a leather interior. That grey material looks very impractical for families.

[@ALFOONUS]

@@pad4 leather is standard, wool is a no cost option, also the material is pretty bomb proof, probably more than leather.

[@nilmeanseo]

@@ALFOONUS No leather is NOT standard. Imitation leather (AKA plastic) is standard. But certainly more practical that wool in a family car.

[@Fondrom]

Why are you complaining? This car is obviously targeted for those who have the money. If you don't have £100,000, go for XC40, XC60? Besides, in a few years you can probably get this car for £60,000 second hand.

[@pu7768]

£100,000? I though ex90 prices at usd77000 comparable to your XC90 T8, no?

[@talkingwithcars]

Very cool! I think the first EX90 review I've seen.....would love to see you drive it and check out road behavior, etc.

[@darrentyrrell181]

Totally agree with you Nobby! Keep the video reviews coming i love watching your channel 👍🏻

[@alanrutland4424]

Lovely carpet in that hotel 😊😊. Unlike the EX 30 it does have a speedo and a HUD. Look forward to the next Nobby. Given your recent output that will be tomorrow 😊

[@marka4664]

Nice review, I have a dual motor on order for delivery late this year but probably next. EV bashing is so old hat now and done by those who have never driven them usually. I have a Mercedes EQC currently and love it, just need something bigger, looking forward to getting mine.

[@mrmawson2438]

Cheers mate

[@mrmawson2438]

Its a cracking car

[@thedrey100]

Looking forward to my car come in , Sadly will not arrive to the end of this year been I was the 3 rd one in the UK to order one .I have had 3 cx 90 in the past 6 years and my wife just pick up her 2 rd Volvo this on is XC 60 hybrid .she had full electric one before . But what to have one not fully electric

[@chriswatson9700]

Good looker although I might prefer the Polestar 3…bit easier to thread through traffic?

[@taylorhardaway8031]

That must be the highest trim with all the options.

[@AnthonyOvery]

The LiDAR scoop makes it look like a taxi 😂

[@lambialop3749]

No it’s not. Everything has been integrated perfectly.

[@sohrobotic]

Hopefully, someday it will be my personal taxi.

[@johngaudet6316]

No mention on the worlds first Lidar system?

[@dotamaze]

@@lambialop3749 If Volvo's were ever perfect then the brand wouldn't be bankrupt and sold to the Chinese.

[@chriss4949]

Great video👍 Nobody been killed….they just died of boredom😂

[@richardhowlett7398]

The carpet in the room was nice . A V70 please .

[@terrydelahunt842]

My 2017 v90 will do near 1000k range with a full roof box and boot and air con at full blast, has most of the same technology as this. Stick a full roof box and boot on this with air con going and they 600k notional range will be cut in half. And they call this progress

[@XLoaferY]

it doesn't have any of the tech this does. I'm sure it's a fantastic car, but it isn't the same.

[@terrydelahunt842]

@@XLoaferY it has level two semi autonomous driving/pilot assist, adaptive cruise control, BLIS, etc, so there really isn't much of a difference

[@Mr35000000]

Depends how many times per week you drive over 600K in a single day? Also charging at home this will cost less than 10p per mile, with less servicing costs and less wearable parts. Not to mention the tax breaks being offered to people to purchase Electric.

[@mrmawson2438]

Great 8 seater

[@Mr35000000]

Think it's a 7 seater.

[@thomasfarrell7911]

0.28 is a better drag coefficient than 0.29

[@NobbyOnCars]

I’m aware of that. I mixed up the order recording a video on the fly, you should try it sometime

[@thomasfarrell7911]

​@@NobbyOnCars did you edit it on the fly too?

[@nilmeanseo]

@@NobbyOnCars Hi Nobby, I love the channel and I think you are great but maybe you're being a little bit too sensitive? Maybe....... If someone points out a small mistake it's a bit OTT to suggest that they try to do better themselves. Maybe they think you would like to know. Just remember, the more comments on the videos the better for the KZbin algorithms.💰

[@PixelVibe42]

Another great review, thank you! The more I learn about new cars the more I’m convinced I won’t buy one. Seems the sweet spot for family cars peaked around 2020/21. I personally don’t fancy having pay-walls for features, expensive virtue-signalling interiors, lane departure and speed warnings that I can’t deactivate permanently, let alone the massive price!

[@taylorhardaway8031]

I’m kinda picky about the screen being horizontal, that would make it skipable to me.

[@raspas99]

I will skeptical about the claim that nobody died from 2015 in the previous version but after searching online I have to admit there are many sources claiming that's true. It was one of the most unreliable cars in the world. Owners were complaining about non-stop repairs that made them go crazy and eventually sell the car but hopefully with the electric one they will improve reliability.

[@Cttechexpress]

Looks pretty nice with the leather - that gray cloth is what I expect in a $35K Honda, not a $100K Volvo So my electric 3 row SUV ranking still goes Rivian R1S, Lucid Gravity, Tesla Model X/Kia EV9 (tie), Volvo EX90. We'll see where the new Cadillac IQ slots in, maybe at the top aside from the ridiculous $130K starting price.

[@NobbyOnCars]

Good luck getting a new Honda for 35k these days too 🤣

[@Cttechexpress]

@NobbyOnCars you can still get a Civic, Accord, CRV and several other models for that.

[@jeremyfk]

Great review, keep it up. Sorry you have to put up with some of the nastier, ill informed comments.

[@philedwards7174]

Volvo do produce the fabulous Xc90 and clearly this EV model continues with this quality. However, for me if I required a 7 seater I think van orientated vehicles are worth a look. The last one I had was the VW Caravel/Multivan, as an EV VW now produce the buzz. The benefits are that the van vehicles don't waste space o bonnet length which results I more cabin space and easier access. Just put it out there. Perhaps someone should run a comparison between 7 seat SUV versus 7 seat van.😮

[@XLoaferY]

Volvo is doing the EM90. not sure of market release

[@mrmawson2438]

Brb its tea time

[@LL-ln5sw]

Have you heard if there will be wheel options for the EX90? Not a big fan of the look. Everything else is almost perfect!

[@NobbyOnCars]

There will be

[@user-zb6el4ks2b]

its needs a lot of power as is weighs near 2.5 tons ?

[@XLoaferY]

408bhp for the dual non-performance afaik

[@emmanuelstephen8554]

This would be a definite hit

[@gib321]

Eye watering price - how many have been allocated to RoI I wonder.

[@NobbyOnCars]

I did ask, they couldn’t say publicly unfortunately

[@nilmeanseo]

All the premium brands try and create an aura of scarcity with their cars. I don't believe it.

[@keithronson2624]

Mark, Volvo are on it! Volvo is the 'E' brand. Looks amazing. Brilliant design and of course world leading safety and technology. [Did someone mention Tesla? I will! Couldn't hold a light to Volvo.The demise of Tesla cannot come fast enough! And whilst on my hobbyhorse, Kia this is how you design a 7 seater SUV ..not that dreadful K9 or whatever it's designated. Volvo and indeed Polestar are in another league. ] Really is the e SUV to go for. And yes like below it is in another world in terms of price! And yes you could buy a terrace house here in NW England. It is getting insane. Thanks Mark for this early access to this brilliant Volvo.

[@johngaudet6316]

You get what you pay for, a Jap tin can or a Volvo.😊

[@pmd101]

Third row is TIGHT. Expected much more space there.

[@ISuperTed]

Massive battery, massive range, massive price!

[@toningtony8411]

Whats a turd row?

[@NobbyOnCars]

It’s a racist prick

[@Harhawink]

Questions is. Is this better than a Kia EV9 while being significantly pricier than the Kia and not as big and practical.

[@XLoaferY]

the EV9 is better value imo, but the ex90 is a better car. So depends I guess? Partial to both but dog mode/ventilation and Google OS in the Volvo pushed it over the edge for me.

[@Harhawink]

@@XLoaferY EV9 has ”dog mode” aswell. You can leave the cars ventilation to a set temperature for hours without having to use the utility mode.

[@terrydelahunt842]

What happens to the range when towing? I'd imagine you'd want to be towing a charging station alongside you.

[@chrishopkins8215]

I prefer the current xc60/90 interior.. this is... 😬

[@NobbyOnCars]

Yeah I think I want more 'wow' inside for the money.

[@TG-pd3ft]

0:27 Nobby you need to edit that bit out (unless you're joking) as it's absurd

[@simono4991]

It is, apparently, true. At least the bit about being killed inside one. More technically, apparently not in an accident with another car. Obviously the bit about no-one being killed outside an XC90 isn't true, and I can't see that Volvo have ever claimed it.

[@NobbyOnCars]

I can assure you, it is true. I don’t make stuff up for the fun of it.

[@joeo8919]

Looks like they forgot to paint it and just sent it out in primer

[@petershorney7504]

Just too big. Buying a frigging bus would be cheaper. Soon as they're available they'll be dropping off Little Johnny at school, causing all sorts of accidents - non-fatal of course.

[@Mr35000000]

If you want smaller get the EX30 for half the price.

[@diarmuidlucey7482]

Crazy that these Tanks of cars are only 120 euro to tax annually, yet they'll clog up the roads, take up more than a parking space, and will cause a high level of environmental damge to manufacture.....meanwhil the Grandmother in her 1.0 litre2007 Toyota Yaris is payiny almost 400 euro annually, to take up the littlest of spaces and sip on petrol!....Big battery SUVs are flawed!

[@ahlads]

Tax is based on emissions although I'm sure you know that. When/if EVs start to become the most popular type of car on the road you can be sure they'll change it to be based on something else to drum up more money.

[@XLoaferY]

so buy a smaller EV? Who would cross shop an Ex90 with a yaris?

[@peterforshaw2560]

£117,000 for a car like that😳 and recycled materials… the world has gone mad!

[@blarkdexture8899]

Massive delayed

[@BillsCountrysideAdventures]

£100,000 wtf, shit colour, clunky info system, you didn't show fold down seats.

[@NobbyOnCars]

It’s a pre production car, they don’t fold.

[@Ireland103]

More crappy EV cars...really being forced down our necks... do a video on the second market values of these EV milk floats will ya. In the UK ya cant give them away second hand .. they are kind like phones ..disposable

[@NobbyOnCars]

I paid over 2k for a Sony Bravia nearly 20 years ago. Same TV is probably 800 new now. Not gonna waste my time on videos about news that everyone and their mother knows at this stage. Nobody is forcing you to buy any car.

[@Ireland103]

@@NobbyOnCars correct and right..nobody will force me or anyone with sense to buy these overpriced milk floats..great reviews but tell the truth on the massive deprecation on these cars and don't talk waffle about television's.. Ps..I bought a car you did a great review on..just happens to be a petrol hot hatch...each to there own I guess .keep up the good work

[@NobbyOnCars]

@@Ireland103 it’s not waffle, it’s how the price of technology falls. Cars generally go up in price, we’ve seen EV prices fall. If you do actually watch this channel, you’ll know that I’ve discussed price drops in EV vids so if you wouldn’t mind retracting statements commenting on what is my livelihood suggesting I’m not an honest reviewer thanks. I’m sure you wouldn’t appreciate me walking into your job and telling everyone you’re useless at it and walking off but that’s in a sense what you’re doing here except you can anonymously post under a vague username and walk away again. Think about how your flippant comments that are anti EV (and that’s fine) and turning into a personal attack on someone who is trying to do this full time.

[@Ireland103]

@@NobbyOnCars fair enough..I think your car reviews are decent. I apologise if you think I was getting at you...that was 100% not my intention..my original comment was focused on the plague of these cars...my personal view...we will agree to differ on the con of electric cars ok. But in fairness, I am within reason allowed to post a negative or positive view to a post on youtube but I hold my hand up to how it may have come accross. Apologies again.

[@lottomania7573]

Most useless review what I have ever see. More useless than nevo guy Derek.

It's not a full review as the car isn't production-ready yet. It's a preview. He did an excellent job at that.
