Not really my cup of tea but Volvo have done a cracking job there. Electric cars will play a part in the future, but my money is on synthetic fuels. Excellent presentation as we have come to expect.
It's great to see you back. I guess you been very busy especially with your new company that you started which, congratulations with your new company and I hope it's going really well. It might be a great idea as a free sponsor/ advertisement on your videos. Brilliant into to the EX30 and funny as well. The EX30 looks very stylish from inside and out. Looks like a city car that can go anywhere with the mileage it can do. But we need that special lady car journalist to up it through its passes especially the powerful one. Great video and made my Sunday. Well, all the best Anna. :-)
Hi Jason, thank you ❤ Oh you mean CarMatch? I am the sole owner so fingers crossed I can expand soon! The EX30 is a stylish fast little car, I really love the looks of it, let's see how it performs though! Have a great afternoon Jason
@@AnnaOnRoads Yes That's what I mean, CarMatch. I'm sure a Very clever business lady such as yourself will easily make work out. I just know you make it work and expand the business. Yeah the EX30 does look great and I'm sure it will sale really well especially with the low price tag. You're always welcome and thank you and I hope you having wonderful evening. All the best Anna. :-)
Hello, Anna!! Great to see you again!! You've presented other EVs before and I wrote I wasn't into EVs. However, I do like this one by Volvo. _Au contraire_ of other viewers, I love minimalist ambiance and practicality. Thank you so much for this interesting albeit brief presentation. I hope you haven't given up on taking your cars out for a spin which is the part I most enjoy of all your presentations. Also hope to see you again soon. Be well, Anna. 🤗🤗 👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you so much jsb354 ❤ I think the EX30 actually makes sense as an electric car - small but mighty. Albeit, perhaps a little too mighty! In terms of my presentations, oh, this was just a one-off static presentation. I was never a fan of those as you only learn the car once the rubber hits the road, but it was the only way to show the new EX30. I am now back with regular road tests ❤
Anna, Great to See u again Was beginning to Wonder, but am happy to know u have more Driving Reports in the Works,,,Your appearance may have been brief, but you did mention ‘de BOOT!!!!
Great production as usual Anna. Although EV sales have slowed somewhat in the UK at least this little Volvo could certainly raise a few eyebrows. It'll be interesting to see a full review when it hits the road. Certainly looking at the video the quality looks very good for the proposed price. Great intro with the model unveiling then to the full size car.
Sort of got a Range Rover Evoque look , which isn't a bad thing. The kitchen bench top interior isn't to my taste though. Nice to have you back Anna even if only for 5 minutes 😊
@@AnnaOnRoadsI am sure it will be worth the wait, excellent channel - btw you may find me commenting on some of your previous videos over the next few days 😉 please keep doing what you are doing ❤
Ciao Anna, first of all I always have to compliment you on your professionalism, your elegance and your beauty! Having said that I still can't get used to the electric car but I have to say that I like this Volvo model...👍😃😍 Samu Milan-Italy
Great to see you back Anna! This is an interesting proposition and demonstrates that EVs don’t have to be hideously expensive, but … if they just fitted a small and simple petrol engine they could probably be sold for a lot less. And here in the UK the EV market is cooling as the first adopters/business market has been satisfied. The used market has apparently dropped off a cliff and there are now stories emerging of cars catching fire - in one instance it spread to the house. I suspect history will record EVs as being a short-lived phenomenon before common sense prevailed and synthetic and biofuels became commercially viable. We’ll see.
It is hard to make a small SUV and make it attractive but Volvo pulled it off. If the performance is as advertised it will be an interesting proposition. Anna...great to have you back publishing content. You were missed.
Thank you Chad, I really appreciate it ❤️ absolutely, Volvo really did pull it off. The car just looks interesting and a little different to what's on the market.
Great to see you back Anna. I'm confused in the direction Volvo are going with their marketing. Volvo and Polestar are the same company and Polestar was the performance arm. Now Volvo have better performance vehicles than Polestar so I cannot understand which direction Volvo/Polestar are heading with their respective lineups.
Hey Anna, good to see you back. First time commenter but from a fellow 29 year old American, I’d like to see you in some pick up trucks such as the Ram 🤠
Thank you so much Flying Ant ❤ Hard to get my hands on the RAM in Europe, but in a few weeks, I do have a Raptor booked! So that'll definitely go heavy offroading ;-)
Nice to have you back on RUclips, Anna. As for the car, I sighed when you showed the hidden button for the boot. Hidden buttons on cars, TVs etc. are a pet hate of mine.
just think of all the other hidden buttons thanks to the ludicrous obsession to make cars ever more dangerous by having touch screen and sub menu style controls As for minimalist, it kinda reminds me of a public convenience..... As to price / performance, MG has it trumped...otherwise, a welcome effort :)
Hmm Anna wearing Pink is this the trend of "Barbie" the movie ? Nah its just Anna showing her style and her unique style of Car reviews , I'm staying with combustion but a nice little car none the less :)
Climate emergency we’re told ! But if you buy an electric car the world will be all fine and dandy 🤔 aside from that, the EX30 looks rather nice (would prefer a hybrid version) and Anna always brightens up the day 👍🏻
They will save the planet 🤣 I think hybrid would fit this car perfectly. Because it's not too small to just be a city car, there is a great deal of practicality to even travel with a child.
@@sebastianslapek 🤣 probably! But I am actually not a fan of electric cars on a racetrack at all. A combustion engine builds up that adrenaline with the revs and sound, it's more natural to accelerate this way. Vs being put in a space rocket, even the likes of Taycan etc. but that's just my personal experience.
Whatever about the speed and size its not the prettiest Volvo I have seen. Personally its a pass from me. Wonderful to see my favourite car reviewer back doing what she does best.
Thank you very much ❤ Fair enough! Look-wise, I still prefer the S90, but that's just me. This is young, stylish yet a bit funky. Great car for young people and women!
BMW try with their brochures showing their cars outside of some futuristic house. but your video thumbnails pics are just so much better, kudos to your wardrobe and your camera shot framing
Thank you so much Tom ❤ it means so much to hear it. The photography in this case was a little tricky because it was a low-ceiling room with poor lighting, but I do have a talented photographer. We could do wonders next to those villas though, it's all about skills and creativity :-)
@@AnnaOnRoads yeah well everything is a crossover now. All my clients are buying them at about 90% rate. I just think its bland. They all look nearly the same.
@@jeremyr7147 Jeremy, if you don't mid me asking - which brand are you selling? Well, all cars are somewhat similar, hard to truly stand out. The new EX30 does stand out, I have to admit - it's rather feminine, but I love it.
@@AnnaOnRoads hello Anna banana 😂.. well I drive an 05 Volvo s60R w/ 240k that I've restored/ built by hand to be like new today. Just finished part of the paint job on it after I welded in new quarter panels & rebuilt rocker panels because of rust forming. Cant have that!! I have my own mechanic repair shop, everyone is buying new crossovers. I don't even have to ask what they're getting, all the same.. Different brands but Hyundai/Kia seems to be most popular & is pushed a lot here as economical crossover. My neighbor just got a Hyundai too. I'm 90 miles out from Chicago, in rural area. Thanks for your interest 🤗
@@AnnaOnRoads There is a lot of hype about this car here on youtube. Only i can see is a people talking about EX30. It is very hard to see how small or big this car is. 😁 Here in EU we can allready order one. And we also did it. The problem is that nobody have seen this car yet, and nobody have drive in one.
@@AnnaOnRoads I mean, it looks like a beautiful car, no doubt. 😁 I am more concerned about size of it. In other video they compare it with CX40 wich is a bigger vehicle. We have a škoda karoq today and it seems when u stand by EX30 that is much lower car. We have a škoda karoq today
You are correct - Volvo, just like Polestar and Lotus are owned by Geely. Bear in mind, most car manufacturers have a rather major Chinese ownership, Mercedes to name a few...
@@AnnaOnRoads Didn't know that, thanks for the info - I will look into it more closely. Had no idea Mercedes had some (more than some) Chinese ownership.

@@AnnaOnRoads you will have fun when it goes on the Volvo configurator.
The Volvo 66 was the smallest Volvo ever made. Volvo probably want to forget it as it was a rebadged DAF.

Not really the smallest ever Volvo car maybe SUV remember the Volvo C30 from recent years or Volvo P1800 from the 70s ?
Is this Volvo pretending to be a Polestar, or is Polestar pretending to be a Volvo? 😉
Thanks for the upload Anna! 😊
