Lovely looking car saw a few in the flesh in the UK. You can't got wrong with a Volvo will have all the safety bells and whistles but of course will be paying for it too.

I'm getting an option for €50,500 for the standard range single motor.

An actual ev for adults?

Click on continue and will say not available and give preconfigured dearer options.

Looks like no polestar finance or trade in options so only cash or personal finance.

Not available currently. Only the pre-configured cars.

The issue, at least for me when looking at this car (And I do think its a lovely vehicle) Is that adding the plus pack, which I think the car really needs to compete with the features of the Model 3 /Ioniq5/ Ev6 pushes the car above the EV grant eligibility.

Effectively making the plus pack cost 10k instead of the stated 4,800 on their configurator. Unless that's on purpose I feel like that's a huge oversight. As it makes the most sensible configuration of the car a chunk more expensive than the direct competition. At least from what I can see.

Sellers market they prioritize the options that give the most margins as will be sold anyway in my opinion.

Also don't have to change over production lines for different configurations, but in modern production that should be much less of an issue.
