We're looking at an EX30 Plus, probably the standard single motor, std range, but possibly the extended range...

So, with that in mind, I see there are still MY24 cars available, MY25 on forecourts and now you can order MY26.

I've found the MY26 changes on YouTube, but other than saving 'about £1500' from MY25 to MY24, what are teh reasons I should go for one over the other?

Welcome to this forum. You don't say where you are.

If in the UK, either buy a cheap pre-reg at circa £10k [saving], or pay full price and get a MY26 with V2L.

Little difference in the MYs otherwise.

Not what you asked about, but in deciding which battery to go for, be aware that the WLTP figures are way off. In real life you may only get about 70% of the official range. Bear this in mind when choosing which model to go for.

Maybe the 2026 model will come with Plug and Charge included, but if the P&Ch has its rates based on the same economic agreement that Volvo has with its charging card... they can save the Plug&Charge. My opinion.

Another thing - if you want a YELLOW one - and to be frank who wouldn't! - it's been discontinued so you can't get a MY26 one :(

Interestingly there aren't any pre-reg SMSR cars on Autotrader - but there ARE bargains to be had! Especially YELLOW ones!

Bargain of the day if you'll consider used - and the higher insurance:

Moss yellow all the way, you really can't be missed. Especially if your driving in parts of the UK where driving standards are poor, eg south east England and London!

And by the way I am sure that you can get ALL of those ER models under the £30k mark if you ask/haggle. Without any effort. I know we did back in Oct/Nov when we got ours. Bit of a no brainer even with all the subsequent software glitches.
