January 06 2023,
If you're in the market for an electric vehicle (EV), you may be wondering which one is right for you. With so many options on the market, it can be tough to decide. But if you're looking for great value, great range, and the latest in safety and technology features, the Volvo XC40 Recharge is definitely worth considering. Here's a closer look at what this EV has to offer.
Value: The XC40 Recharge has a starting price of $59,950, which puts it in the same ballpark as other luxury EVs like the Audi Q4 e-tron. But when you factor in all the features that come with the XC40 Recharge—like heated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, and Pilot Assist (a semi-autonomous driving system)—it's clear that this EV offers more bang for your buck.
Range: The XC40 Recharge has a range of 359 km on a single charge, which is comparable to other luxury EVs on the market. But what sets the XC40 Recharge apart is its fast-charging capability—it can go from 10 to 80% charged in under 40 minutes using a DC fast charger. So, if you're ever low on juice, you won't have to wait around for hours to get back on the road.
Safety: Safety is always a top priority for Volvo, and the XC40 Recharge is no exception. It comes with features like Blind Spot Information System (which uses sensors to detect vehicles in your blind spot and alerts you with a visual warning), Cross Traffic Alert (which uses sensors to detect approaching vehicles when backing out of a parking space or driveway), and City Safety Collision Avoidance Technology (which uses sensors to detect potential collisions and automatically applies the brakes if necessary). In other words, this EV has your back—literally.
Google Built-in: For 2023 models, all Volvo cars will come standard with Google built-in—which means you'll have access to all your favourite Google apps like Maps, YouTube, and more right from your car's infotainment system. And since Android powers more than two billion active devices worldwide, there's a good chance you're already familiar with this operating system. So, if you're looking for an EV that's easy to use and comes with all your favourite features built-in, the XC40 Recharge should definitely be at the top of your list.
