Steven Persensky Thank you for a very informative video. After listening to your presentation of the 2 different battery chemistry models, do you regret that Volvo´s largest battery option does not use LFP chemistry? I look forward to your next video and a more in depth review of the EX30´s regenerative breaking system!
Thank you, I’m yet to see a high performance model using LFP chemistry, technically it doesn’t seem possible as yet. The larger battery is there to fulfill the performance variant, which at the time being at least need to be NCM
Finally a EV car reviewer that provides the information and language that I want to hear. Thank you! I would like to know a bit more about the cooling system used to maintain the batteries. I reside in a warmer than usually environment.
Hello and regards to Malta, you will become my favorites canal ..... because i was living 3 time in Malta and this is my favorite island. Good Luck my friend.
You are right about two modes of regen. But you are wrong on the one which is not OPD. The other one is, unfortunately, not a free coast. It will regenarat 12-15 kW at speeds 20-100 km/h. That is i significant amount of braking. Speed is lost rapidly, and I do not like it!
That’s an interesting question. I’ve never looked into how the efficiency varies from one model to another on their heat pump. It might be hard to find that documented though
@@TheFutureisElectric I know GM has published online stating all the innovations built into the one they use. I have also read range results from Kea/Hyundai comparing results between a heat pump and without, same models, with very little difference in results.
Almost made me cry this bs the world is their and always be there ev's will not change a thing. If we really want to save the environment we need to consume less. And yes volvo is doing it because if legislation as there ar penalties for every ice care made. So lets not kid our selfs. But overall a nice care the only volvo i would consider. Sadly the back space is a bit cramped.
