Nope that is the B6. The T6 is the same as the T8 (PHEV) but with less mechanical HP from the front petrol engine.

Thanks so much! 😊

Thanks! That’s the camera just not capturing these kind of lights ‘properly’. 😊

lol!

Yep that would be a very interesting facelift! I wonder if they consider doing that or just keep it as is until the next gen

@@thom-lov i hope they know about the product lifecycles and in my book this one is declining. They should improve interior if they want to increase growth of c40 lineup. Such a nice exterior, i went for a tesla but considered this one 1000 times.

​@@alsaadchowdhury7672 I totally agree. They could have introduced the display they have in the EC30 with some slight interior changes to give it a more competitive and fresh look. Compared to other EVs on the market at this price range the display is lacking. I'm certainly not interested in something as big as what's in a Tesla though, which I think is overwhelming and really designed to save cost then provide a better experience.

@@accountability2000 they are, tesla is known for that even getting rid of indicator stocks lol. But i agree, why not the polestar 2 like dashboard where the opacity looks nice unlike the dark theme in xc40 lineup? Also, i would have purchased ec40 had they had a display like ex30. Looks so clean setup! Summary: Lovely car, needs a interior refresh badly.

Yeah we’ve all been there haha

EC90 would be very cool! But, it are 2 EX90’s 😉

@@thom-lov Ha3 yes EX90's 🤭 I look forward to your review of the new EC40 & EX40 to know whether or not Volvo has fixed the vibration problem in your ex-C40, as well as some of your other criticisms 🤔😁

Thanks Timo! NO VIBRATIONS!! It’s a miracle. 😉 Maybe some ‘Smokey’ wrap can make those red taillights a bit more appealing. Though this package as standard looks really badass in real, haha! Cheers

That's fantastic that there's no vibration!! ​@@thom-lov

@@accountability2000 haha, now we know it is possible.. ;-)

Thanks! 😊

Thanks!! The color in question was not in that small color lineup on display. I asked all Volvo product experts present there and they also had no clue. This is a real mystery color, haha! Thanks for watching 😊

@@thom-lov Oh, always a pleasure, thanks for answering and giving further details 😊 - what a pity still, blues are usually my favourite shades, and this one looks so good on the Volvo lines, not too pale, not to dark, not boring nor too vibrant, so Volvo should call it "mystery blue" if it ever hits the market one fine day... that will hopefully bring interiour colours/upholsteries back that I miss, like cranberry red, espresso brown, pine green, a nordic shade of blue... I like shades of grey on the outside of a car, but not inside. My V40 used to have a blueish off-white moonlight exteriour colour, way ahead of its time, with a sand and espresso brown interiour, très chic like a Dior handbag, and my dad's 244 DL was dark orange with brown corduroy upholstery in the 70ies. Funky! Individualizing has a hard time these days unfortunately. Way to go, Thom! 😊 Thanks again!

Yep that’s a pretty firm rumor actually. However for timing I’m expecting this facelift next year with my26. Exciting! 😄

It will get there as well, hang in there 😉

It really was! As for that blue color, we don’t know yet, haha! A must see when in GTB/Sweden 😊 cheers!!

The blue color looks very much like mussel blue (older xc60 color)… the ex40 black looks very purposeful, good looking car. God job, Thom.

Could the colour be the older Volvo Orinoco blue?

@RullarR good one! It does look very similar

@@thom-lov Definitely on my must see list when I finally get to Sweden! It's funny because I'm already missing having a Volvo...not that I don't love my Mini Clubman....made me realize what a truly connected to the road drive is missing in most Volvo models...but Volvo is "home" to me...been looking at a couple of used XC70's at my dealer....maybe if they give me a good trade in value for the Mini I'll pull the trigger....🤷‍♂

Yeah still not sure what color that is. Perhaps a one off or something.

Thanks!! You're in for a treat 👍

I’m being told November for EX40 in UK

@@Salarygirl_uk the EX40 and EC40 are already with first customers here in The Netherlands. Also other EU countries. Big chance you'll see them on UK roads prior to november as well

Thanks Tim! Cheers,

Wat jammer! Heb je gereden met een recent variant waarin de ruiten ‘dubbellaags’ zijn? De eerste 2021 hebben dit niet waardoor het meer opvalt.

Hoi Thom, ik heb gereden met een 01 van mei 2023. Mooie auto met donkere hemel, was precies zoals ik hem zou willen. Ik dacht eerst ik heb de deur niet goed dicht, ben meteen de eerste afrit eraf gegaan om te kijken of ik deur wel goed dicht had. Met dakraam open vond ik ook geen succes, ook veel ruis. Ik ga eens een Kuga proberen.

Yep I see what you mean, though it works and you get used to it. Though some buttons here and there would be a bit easier to use..

@@thom-lov agreed, I hope they begin to take a different approach to cars in the future

I believe they did yes

Understandable!

You can!

lol!!

Id say the same. Perhaps the bigger plug-in hybrid battery.

S60 will end soon due to EX90 production. Id say MY25 is the last one.

I also noted the diesel noise being way louder than the petrol engines, funny how you get used to things so quickly 😊

Noted! 🙂

Yep, overall its a pretty bad 'fix'.

You’re in the US?

@@thom-lov I am -eally like your videos too but i reported it about 3 days after the vibration had them try to fix it they couldn't and agreed to buy it back- a little more complicated than that but

Think I’m just gonna take off the whole steering wheel and drive without

Hahaha

hopefully its fixed soon and you can enjoy the car as it is pretty good 😉
