About 25% of all Volvos sold today are EVs and the Swedish brand says it is on course to meet its stated objective of electrifying its complete range by 2030. To meet this ambitious deadline, a raft of all-new electric cars is in the works. The latest model to roll into showrooms is the Volvo C40 Recharge. It has come in quick succession after the XC40 Recharge, Volvo's sole but popular all-electric SUV, which accounts for a quarter of all Volvos sold in India.
The C40 Recharge, is essentially the XC40 Recharge re-fashioned into an SUV-coupé and the main differentiator is the swooping roofline, which sets it up apart from the upright stance of the XC40. It's a lovely looking car with lot of interesting design details such as flowing tail lights, twin spoilers and chunky plastic cladding. It also boasts a whopping 530km range on a single charge, a game-changing 100km enhancement over the XC40 Recharge.
