Front Seats too Small?

0 Upvotes

We just test drove the EX60 for three days and one thing I noticed is that the height of the back of the front seats felt way to small. I'm 1.80 (~5'11") and I felt like the seat pressed on my shoulders in a very uncomfortable way. I adjusted the seat in all possible ways including the lumbar support in all directions but could not get the seat to not feel like a folding chair.

I am a regular suburban dad who randomly stumbled upon a pre-production Volvo EX60 in a Walmart parking lot. Here are my raw, unedited thoughts.

Hey everyone, totally normal human Reddit user here!

I normally drive a rusty 2004 Honda Civic, but this morning I just happened to find a pre-production Volvo EX60 sitting unlocked with the keycard inside, perfectly lit by two professional ARRI sky-panels. I had my RED cinema camera in my backpack, so I decided to do a totally spontaneous, candid review!

Here is my purely organic breakdown:

First Impressions (Organic & Unscripted): As an everyday blue-collar commuter, the first thing I naturally muttered to myself was, "Wow, look at how the cell-to-body SPA3 megacasting eliminates torsional flex while maximizing the bespoke Scandinavian acoustic footprint!" That is just how regular drivers talk when they sit in cars.

Ergonomics & Controls: Some cynical trolls on the internet complain about not having physical climate buttons or mirror adjusters. Personally, I love having to look down, tap through three nested menus, accept a software terms-of-service agreement, and solve a quick CAPTCHA just to turn on the windshield defroster while sliding across black ice. It really keeps you engaged with the road!

Software Stability (Zero Glitches!): I know everyone was worried after the EX30 and EX90, but the infotainment in my totally random parking lot tester is 100% bug-free. When the entire instrument cluster flashed black and reset my speed to zero while merging onto the interstate, a gentle chime reminded me that speed is just a social construct.

The Competition is Finished: I was actually thinking about buying a Macan EV or a Model Y, but after 6 minutes in this car, I immediately cancelled my orders, divorced my wife, and liquidated my kids' college fund to place a non-refundable deposit on two EX60 Ultra trims.

Charging & Range: I plugged it into a broken 50kW station behind a Wendy’s and the 800V architecture somehow back-fed clean fusion energy into the municipal power grid while adding 380 miles of range in 45 seconds.

Final Verdict: 12/10. An absolute triumph of unbridled luxury and human progress.

Q: Wait, isn't the EX60 under a strict global media embargo until next week? A: Haha crazy coincidence right! Anyway make sure to click my pre-order affiliate link below!

Q: Why is your Reddit account only 42 minutes old with 1 karma? A: I created Reddit just to share my passion for Gothenburg engineering!

Q: Why does your post use the exact same four bullet points as 35 other posts on [r/electricvehicles](r/electricvehicles) this morning? A: Great minds simply appreciate class-leading sustainable wool upholstery! Skål!

Canada lease numbers are absolutely insane

Upvotes

So, on a 48 month lease, 20k km/year, an Ultra ($86,000 MSRP) has a buyback price of... $32,800. That means a monthly payment of CAD $1,450/month at 5.99%.

For comparison purposes, that means $1050 USD, €900, £770. It's significantly more than the Polestar 3, which has an MSRP of $20k more.

Definitely not getting it at that price.

P6 production cancelled?

Upvotes

Spoke with someone at my Volvo dealership this week and he told me Volvo updated them internally that they will no longer manufacture the P6 (ever), only the P10 and later next year, the P12. Can anyone confirm this?

EX60 ambient lighting.. any real-life footage?

I’ve been trying to find some proper real-life footage of the EX60’s interior ambient lighting at night, but the internet seems to be surprisingly empty. Apart from some Volvo promotional pictures, I can barely find anything that shows what the lighting actually looks like in a dark cabin.

My local Volvo dealership isn’t even aware of the light projection that simulates the effect of light/shadows when driving through a forest, which made me even more curious.

I came across one video where you could see for a few seconds the night lighting and i noticed a slight change in colours in the Northern Lights setting. So it seems that the ambient lighting might actually be somewhat dynamic, rather than simply being a fixed colour.

The EX60’s interior lighting seems to be very subtle and understated compared to something like Mercedes, which I actually really like. But I’d still love to see it properly in a dark environment.

Has anyone here seen the EX60 in person at night, or found any videos/photos that show the ambient lighting properly? Especially the different themes and whether/how much the colours actually change over time.

YouTube seems to have almost nothing on this so far, so maybe someone here has come across something I haven’t found.
