Volvo struggle to even diagnose their fragile electronics in their ice vehicles....they won’t have a clue about fixing a Polestar...there is more to cars than looks and new car performance....it needs backup and Volvo don’t have a clue or care but it will be expensive...very expensive.For me, unless things change a bit, my next vehicle will probably not be a Tesla. I’ve enjoyed my M3LR RWD for over 3½ years but FOR ME the still-present apparently unsolvable phantom braking and ease with which driver controls are shifted and buried on the display have really turned me off. I found the touchscreen genuinely kewl when I first got it, until things started shifting around. Then, the kewlness quick wore off. Now I value real controls over virtual ones for all driving functionality and prefer displays for infotainment and non-driving functions.
But to answer the question directly, my desires for my next vehicle are these with a desired price point <$65k:
1- Hyundai Ioniq5 Limited, if I could find one I’d have it today. Test drove, liked it a lot.
2- Polestar3 when it comes out later this year. Test drove and like the Polestar2 but found it too claustrophobic for me.
If money was not at issue, I’ve be in the queue for an EQS. From the YouTube videos it is an amazing EV with what I would call appropriate trade-offs between hard controls and display with MB’s incredible quality in their high-end models. The only thing I might find “nicer” would be the upcoming 2023 Spectre EV.
I had an ice Hyundai and it was a really nice dependable car
