The pricepoint is also higher than i thought -- didn't they say 50s to start?

I believe BMW said it was the Neue Klasse i3 sedan that would start in the 50s (back in the days before the admin's threatned 25% tariff, that is).

Interestingly, at the end of the original i3's run in 2021, one of those EVs with the REx extender engine could top the $50K threshold.

I know you are waiting patiently for 2028, but for others get your pre-order in early and delivery should be by Christmas (late 2026)...I think this is going to be a good seller for Volvo.
I like how the lower price Plus trim also includes the heat pump and they actually put the charge port in the right location at least for supercharging...good value for all those features.

If I do go with this vehicle, it would be the long range version of it, which won’t be available until some time next year.

New here on the forum. I am in same boat, got a call from the dealer that we could order the p6 and p10, but while tempting to get the car in November, I really wanted to p12 because of range. Unfortunately, ordering is only later this year, and likely delivery before June 2027. My current EV lease is up by November this year.

I've ordered the Volvo EX60 P10 Plus, and the BMW IX3. To get similar prices I had to scale down the BMW (no glass roof, no HUD). The P10 gets over 500 km, so that's not bad, and my long trip days are limited. The P12 will probably be a little too pricey for me. The P10 and IX3 came in around $81,000 including fees and delivery. I'm leaning toward the P10, mainly for safety features and drive suspension adjustments (adjustable air shocks), the IX3 doesn't offer that. The set belts in the P10 will pretense if a collision is anticipated from the sensors, and the belts will pretense according the to weight and position of the occupant; and if a rear collision is anticipated, I believe the head rests will move up to prevent whiplash. Also if stopped, the breaks are applied, and since this car weighs 3 tons, not much is going to move it. Even the rear headrests are powered, and can be lowered to improve visibility. It also has a very quiet interior, with active noise cancellation. Better than the IX3. The 2 things going for the IX3 are drive handling and longer range, and I think the assisted driving is a little better too. Neither one offers many buttons unfortunately, as the screens are used for just about everything, damn Tesla for starting that.

Wow, they both sound like a significant upgrade from your last EV ride.
When you do receive either one, it will be a pleasure to see it in person. Perhaps at that old BC Hydro setup we shared charging a few years back in Nanaimo (Superstore). They now have upgraded as well offering NACS 180kW, as you are probably aware.;)

PS: I recently upgraded as well, never did get that I5 back in 23.
