    Why not the Volvo then? It’s like $8-10k cheaper than the Y, Ionic, and EV6.

    Although it is a smaller EUV.

      Still can’t buy them yet. No telling if Volvo will do what so many have done at this point and simply raise the price later.

        Maybe. It’s getting a ~$10k tax hit in order to come into the US, and making something with a Volvo badge for $27k could be tricky.

        You can order one now and they ship this summer. I preordered an s60 that way when they totally redid the car in 2019, and they didn’t change the price on me when it finally arrived half a year later. Also, it’s already a EV platform that is shipping as a Zeekr. So the platform isn’t totally unknown.
