3:17 I think you have to press the blue circle icon under the N on the right of the screen
Yes! It was locked on current location
Yep - on this occasion, it seems that it was user error 😄
@@chrisweston9764 shitty software. If the user pulls on the map, it shouldn't return to the current position until the user re-enables it by pressing on the button, or after a certain amount of time without interaction, like 10 seconds.
This Friday I‘m getting my C40😊. Normally I would take a Mercedes EQC, but I waited a long time for them fixing their bugs and they didn‘t. I rented the EQC three times for re-testing, but nothing changed. Not even a bit!
After driving so many German cars, now I decided the first time for the Swedish Quality.
Thank you for your excellent videos!
Can confirm the C40 charges like a beast. Has become my road trip car. Absolutely love this EV.
Would love to se a 1000km challenge from Oslo to Stockholm. Going around the lake Mälaren, south side heading in and north side heading out. Or vice versa.
Love that you shit on the software, when you just have to press on the crosshair to not lock it :)
Any chance of a re-do of the challenge for the XC40 to see if they have made improvements since your last test?
Early spring for you and a late one for us 230 km north of Québec city, I watched this video and dreamed . We’ve still a pile of snow on our lawn 7 ft-2 metres deep and -14 c today.
Bjorn, thanks for raising the Tritium issue. In Australia over 50% of these 50 -350 kw are broken and often for MONTHS. Awaiting parts. It's an absolute scam, clearly these are unreliable chargers. What's even funny is they are made in Australia.
I feel like Volvo is really trying to move away from trying to become Audi for the longest time and are now instead looking to Tesla. Volvo has always tried to do the right thing, but they just never had enough sales to really take of. I hope the electrification will be the turningpoint for Volvo. I feel like it's the only european car brand that tries to do things right although with limited resources in comparison to the other european brands.
For me Volvo and Toyota has the same problem, their stunning outside does not match the interior. Interior is seriously lacking innovation, you still get the same dated rugged looks of the controls and where items are palced.
That said, I am not the majority, since I prefer more touch panels, less knobs (new Hyundai Tucson did it perfectly for me).
@@not_the_pasta Volvo is changing generations with the start of the xc90 EV replacement due out end of year. Their next-gen interiors will be much different than the current ones.
Agreed on a 5 min deduction. I know its a 1000km challenge and all but you need to make it home to wifey, so a"courtesy charge sesh" is pretty standard. it's more like a 1035km challenge for bjorn.
Impressive. Being a former XC40 owner I was really cheering for Volvo to give me an option to my MY. Bravo Volvo
At the moment I drive a Model 3, but I also miss my former V60. The car was great, service was great, dealership was really great.
I hope Volvo has some good EV option in 2 years. Than I will definitely switch back to Volvo.
The built quality of my Tesla is not great at all. Also 11% degradation (confirmed by Tesla). But Tesla does nothing until 30% is reached. It’s ridiculous American shitty service.
Hi Bjorn, I love your 1000 km challenges. Since a couple of months i’ve got an Mini Electric SE. You have done some reviews before but I was wondering if you would like to do an 1000 KM challenge with the Mini. I know the range isn’t that good but just interested to see how it will perform (especially with a bit better weather) like May/June period.
Picked up a C40 today. Fantastic to see this result.
Efficiency and fast charging. The best combo
Glad you did not try to arrive with 5%, you would have seen Mr Turtle too many times! I wonder how slow you would be driving at 5% state of charge, maybe 50KM/hr?
Any test of c40/xc40 Single motor standard range? The official wltp range figures are almost the same as dual motor long range, but I doubt it irl. Would be interesting to see a test from you.
08:00 Ideal temeperature for EV-s are 12 until + 19 Celcius / 53 F until 66 F .
Love to see xpeng p5 and p7
Another comprehensive long range test. 👍
Obviously you have more experience but would it not be better to top up to 100% to start your Swedish 1000km challenges from Bryn Senter or Esso Ryen. On your return you'll be doing your 999 countdown very close to your suburb in Oslo without having to do a top up elsewhere. I figure it will get you home a few minutes earlier on top of a few minutes shorter 1000km run. It will certainly help with the smaller battery cars which will find it easier to get to Ionity Spekörod
No big difference. But By the time I reach Bryn or Ryen, SoC will be lower and I have to spend more time topping it up to 100 %.
Can you please make a tutorial how to get the fastest from a to b with a vehicle? Not the exact numbers for a specific vehicle, but the knowledge you use to achieve the best time that can be used on any electric car.
A Better Route Planner
@@bjornnyland Nice, thanks for answering I will try it. Would be nice if you make an video about it.
If you have the opportunity, I see the North American tow rating is 900kg. Could you tow a trailer and see what it does to the range please? It would add a bit of variety... Like the videos
Love this car, only issue is the weight, around 300kg more than model 3
Great video bjorn your a funny man can’t wait for the next video
Bjorn, which other EV provides the closest ownership experience to a Tesla? Range, charging speed, user interface. For those that don't want to spend as much for a Tesla but still want an EV.
Hyundai kona
@@YTMasters12 How about something newer?
Having driven ioniq 5 for a few weeks, id say it is done better than Tesla in every way except the top speed and some software quirks (and features). Edit: Right - the range is still the best on Teslas.
The flaps are for hiding the hinches :)
Did they fix the nagging "find a charger now" while already charging? Great review. Thanks!
14:29 me an Italian hearing that:
BJORN WTF??? 😳😳😳
Thank you for the VAT comment, Im gonna keep that in mind if I ever get stopped by the police driving 124kmh on 100kmh roads
What is more impressive is the ID series who is roughly the same time yet a lot less expensive. Will you redo the challenge when 3.0 will arrive in the ID software?
I m thinking to change to this car. I was waited ur test
Super jealous of just how many fast chargers you have available in Europe. As soon as I get it of the city there is virtually nothing over 50kw
What part of our planet do you live at?
Maybe in Italy like me. Norway is years beyond us.
@@stal5861 Australia .. way behind Europe as far as EVs go
@@markeaton6734 That's sad. Tax incentives makes wonders.
Rest of Europe also dreams about charging network like Norway.
Always funny when you say «E-tron go home» when a car charges with +150kW. Because just a couple of minutes later the speed falls (in this case 79kW at 69%) while e-tron keeps 150kW all the way to 79%😂
You should try the garlic + chili combo instead of the garlic + ketchup next time.
is it good or bad car overall ?
7:08 Fiat Punto 12:04 Fiat Tipo
The better charging had to have been Because of updates i think.
Körde du på 19” eller 20” tums fälgar? Borde inte 19” ge bättre range? Toppen video 👍🙌
The C40 is so much better looking than the XC40
@MultiTroll84 Agree to disagree!
@MultiTroll84 So true and well said. It's good we all have different tasted. Both great EV's from Volvo.
Just ordered the C40 Ultimate in the US. Did you run this test with 19" or 20" wheels?
These look like 19 version
I loved your enyaq videos and I was really interested in buying one, you know any good second hand websites to look for??
www.finn.no
Would the uodated xc40 be comparable to this?
How about charging ionity for broken charger after 72 hours of reported broken charger euro 500 per day!? I bet they would all be working in less than a week
I really appreciate this test of the C40 as I’m coming to Norway early June to drive Bergen to Nord Kapp and back to Bergen - Hertz has XC40 “or similar” listed as available to rent. Problem is I cannot read the Hertz Norway website as it’s in Norwegian with no English translation……….. I need to know if they include a charging RFID card and Toll prepayment with their cars. Can any one help me? Rental is to be from 12th June to 5th July from and return to Bergen Airport.
Use Google Chrome translation.
Don't you think that it's worth to measure again the net capacity of the battery, as it could be the case that Volvo has opened more of the capacity, since you tested the XC40?
Already did it. Video coming.
How do you get TM and TA on the display? thanks
add the charger as a charging stop rather than navigating to it and the car warms the battery ready
Double sausage pen-test haha
Could you please repeat this test for XC40 and C40, P6 models.. Because Volvo is offering only P6 models of them for Turkey..
Between EQB and C40 - which would you go for?
C40
@@bjornnyland thx..C40 or XC40?
What is it about EQB you don’t like?
Thanks for the Video Björn. Strange car - too small for a family and way too expensive as well. More for rich couples. I think there are better value cars out there...
Our C40 broke down in less than 3000 miles. Propulsion system failure. Has been in the shop for 6 weeks. Volvo didn’t do their homework here. Their mechanics don’t know how to fix the cars and they don’t have sufficient spare parts. Wait a year or two until they figure things out.
2 years with XC40, 60 000 km no real issues..
👍😊
Does the C40/XC40 beat Polestar 2 in any other way than color options? Polestar 2 is a bit less brick-shaped.
well... um... a bigger screen? Brembo brake option? Some markets can option a 50KW performance upgrade... um... Oh... vented seats with leather. That was the deal breaker for me to go with a P2.
They the same price?
@@jollygreen4662 Here they are pretty much the same price.
My impression is the interior is a little nicer in the Volvo and more sporty in the polestar 2.
19:00 🤣🤣
👍
16:35 ... does any car take wind conditions in to range calculation on the map?
This is a Google Maps issue, I have the same problem on my phone sometimes when having marked something
”issue”… If you click the “follow my position”-button, of course the maps will keep you centered on the screen
Not correct .. fat e tron gets 153 - 156 kw even in winter. And it tapers off a lot later than C40.
Do not know if the S60 is better than the 55, but my S60 gets 153 - 156kw
Incorrect. You're talking about kW delivered by the charger. If battery heater and cabin heater is on, it will of course pull more from the charger. What matters is how many kW goes into the battery.
@@bjornnyland
153 - 156 kw in the display of the car, not the display on the charger.
Ok, that must be some new stuff. According to my older tests, it didn't go that high. I will test fat e-tron later this week and confirm it.
@@bjornnyland Great! There have been some recent updates to etron 55 and 50. 55 gets GOM update to display more range and perhaps also real world range increase, maybe charge curve was tweaked too. 50 juat gom update/fix
Clever to put your passport in front of the speedo to hide the VAT...
Perhaps the music in middle of different stops is a bit long? Not watching for the music ;-)
You can skip if you don't like it🙄
@@duffman5z yes you are right but it's also not the purpose of the videos. if i want music I go on spotify or an other channel ;-). it is not an advice, it is just a feeling that i have. ;-) and perhaps I'm not the only one?
Nah, I think it's perfect length. Again, if you don't want to watch, just skip. I will not change anything based on this feedback.
@@bjornnyland like I said it’s not an advice at all, just a feeling ;-) so perhaps I’m not like everybody. But don’t take it as the wrong side! Just expressing ;-)
You're the only one here who mentioned it.
Perfect 50k car. Can't even use the navigation on it. (Also I don't care if it's google maps or Volvo's fault. I spend 50k on a car I assume I can use the navigation).
The navigation is actually extremely good! It is just as good as Google maps on your phone.
Ionity making a name for themselves as expensive and unreliable. Seems they don't care either.
Incorrect. They are in fact dirt cheap compared to many other charging networks.
Charging "like a boss" seems a bit exaggerated. Doesn't even get more than 150kW. That's about on par with what a Model 3 LR drops to after 50%... with it having charged at more than 150kW for about half the battery.
It's a very ugly car, with very ugly software. I hate google software for the infotainment. It is really, really bad. Hopefully no more car companies implement it.

I like it alot, works better then almost all other car software I used before and the potential is there once third party apps starts to come..
@@AlejandroHernandez-yp4qf El software de google para infotenimiento es una castaña. Y a los hechos vistos en el vídeo me remito. Además de feo.
@@johanwagreus283 Good, I guess you can buy one of those cars. I will avoid them. The last thing the whole world needs is Google having even more information about our behaviors. It's dangerous.
@@johanwagreus283 I did a market analysis, the AAOS adoption is really widespread. Majority of car makers will be using Google in the next 2-3 years.
The few going their own way (using Automotive Grade Linux) are : Hyundai-Kia-Genesis, Toyota, Mercedes.
VAG will be using AAOS until their own platform is ready.
@@LaurentVitalis Makes sense, why develop you own software when you can buy it almost complete from someone that makes software all the time.
