Great review amd summary and agree with the issue with the central screen. You do get used to it though and hopefully the software updates will address some of the challenges of deeply embedded functionality

I'm half way through this video and wondering if there will be any detail beyond the Volvo press release. No mention of the distance range prediction inaccuracies and the frunk is too small for the cables

[@robertpotton9179]

Yep, nothing new here move along!

[@slo007]

The lack of a dashboard is a major no-no for me. The rear headrests are far too small safety-wise. I'm very disappointed with this car. They tried too hard to cut costs and mimic a certain other brand... yet the price doesn't reflect the minimalist approach.

What are the chances this vehicle will not make it to the US because of the new 100% tariffs on Chinese made cars?

Volvo Ghent will build EX30. Polestar 4 will be built in South Korea. The U.S still receive these models but abit late than other markets

@@nguyenduymuoi5692 The EX30 is already being produced in China and was expected to be imported from there with a starting price of about $37,000 but the tariffs will push that to over $50,000, again making it uncompetitive in its segment. Volvo last fall announced it would add EX30 production in Ghent alongside the XC40 and C40, but not until 2025.
