It is a fantastic vehicle with good range, decent charging, impeccable safety, built-in Android interface and Google Maps, and older models sell for similar prices to the Ioniq 5 / ID4 etc. I test drove it and it is luxuirous, comfy, and just a great and beautiful car. I don’t even see it mentioned almost ever.
I’m guessing perhaps the range, but the 2024 RWD model has around 300mi and AWD 256mi of range. Older ones around 220mi. I’m considering it above all others I’ve driven because it has better ride height and viewing angles for me as I’m tall with a very long torso.
Personally, I don’t like the current Volvo designs, but the infotainment system is absolutely maddening and that is the reason I won’t even consider them right now. The new gen stuff is getting good reviews, so hopefully they will improve dramatically in the next few iterations.
What are you hearing? It uses Android Automotive which from what I’ve used and seen in videos, it is intuitive and works well.
It’s not hearing, it’s using them. My in-laws have two Volvos. An XC-90 and an XC-60. I hate driving them because of the entire way they work. I don’t use Android, but that only matters using Nav or media. The reviews on the new little electric one (EX30) have been positive, but i haven’t seen the UI to see if it’s better. But that’s just my opinion, go to a dealer and play with one yourself.
