I ordered the Ultra with Bowers and Wilkins here in France. It was due to be delivered in spring next year but it’s late and it’s gonna be in winter sadly… This summer I was invited to the Paris event to show some customers this car and it was very nice.
@@VagabondBuilds And we could touch anything we wanted (but very carefully) 😁 I’ve been driving electric since May 2014, Ifirst with a Leaf 24 for two years, then in 2016 with a Leaf 30 and since 2019 with a Model 3 LR. I also bought an EQV 300 in October this year. I’m a private driver in the Champagne area (since 2016) and drove 700000km in electric cars. The Model 3 has done 383000km and still going strong.
Vagabond- Absolutely superb review. I appreciate how you make references to the size and scale of seats and roof height, especially in the middle row. It helps to know your size at 6’2. We are a tall family and we’ve learned that most second row/back seats of cars and SUVs are usually undersized and skimpy. This looks like an under 200 inch vehicle that would accommodate taller folk and fit in a standard 2 car garage! Thank you!
Hey! Thank you so much for the support! Glad we can help!! We are trying to get our hands on the first ones that get on to the dealership floor so we can bring you more content!
Great video Vagabond. One of the few detailed early release videos of EX90 available on RU-vid. 👍 Questions: 1. Is the display car in dawn silver or vapour gray? 2. Does it have a real leather seat option? 3. Does it have a digital rearview mirror like on the Polestar 4? 4. Does it have any dashcam functionality like Tesla's Sentry mode? 5. If the captain seats do become available, will it still remain as 7 seaters? Thanks again 🙌
1. I’m not exactly sure which exact one was it. 2. No real leather options in the ex90 3. The one in the video did not have a live feed rear camera, not sure if a trim will come with it. 4.I don’t believe it has such tech. 5. Would be 6 seats. Hopefully I was a bit of help. When they start rolling out we will try to get some trims filmed. Thanks for the support.
Great video. Eagerly awaiting the availability of this car. I previously owned an S70 a while ago and have been asking about an electric Volvo car since back then. Currently trying to choose between the EX90 and the Tesla Model X. Decisions decisions....
honestly Volvo over Tesla. Dont worry about the charging infrastructure. The car itself reigns superior than Teslas cheap engineering flaws. Volvo all day.
This one is very nice. Hope I can afford this someday. That's how Volvo cars should be built, and not the way the EX30 is built. Buttons for electric lifts must be in the doors and not in the center console, among other things.
Also these seats look very cheap. Just like any 30k car seats look like. 😂 does not look like a 80k car to me. It might feel different, but clearly not look premium.
@@VagabondBuilds I was in a rollover many years ago. Luckily no one was hurt with solid roof. May have been different with glass. Even luckier was that the other side of the gravel road was a three hundred foot embankment. Enjoy the small things in life. Also don't like the fish bowl effect or the green house effect. Peace out everyone. Stephen Supposedly the glass roofs started so the mechanical robots could assemble the interior of vehicle with the roof off, making it easier. Then just glue the glass on at the end. Don't know how true that is.
what happens with all these technology is it breaks often. Don’t use complex tech. Simplicity do just fine. I’m sure the light would break often after few years and expensive to fix.
@@Wasabi9111 You completely missed the point. The safety thing has nothing to do with how they design the lighting, for example. As matter of fact, eliminating necessary buttons such as climate controls, hurt safety as it distracts the driver. I'm not against tech at all, I'm an early adopter. but the problem is you cannot "overload" with techs that do not work or unnecessary. Things that are counter intuitive, break often or hard to operate should be avoided and stick to the time-tested design that is simple and works all the time.
@@kevinkrolick8511 The units built at this factory will almost certainly be for the USA/CAD domestic market. Units for the European market are either built in existing factories in the European Union or imported from China. I don't think Volvo will import units from USA to EU bc never did that probably for cost and taxes
@@VagabondBuildsNo, he means an electronic sliding shade cover like on XC40. My guess is no as it doesn’t look like there’s enough room. Volvo designed it for maximum head room.
