In this 2023 review Simone looks at the Volvo C40 recharge in its twin motor ultimate trim. Volvo as a brand are taking a more aggressive approach in their shift to full EV with all their cars being fully EV by 2026.

You have a choice between two powertrains. One is a single motor and the other is a dual motor. The single motor option called the Recharge Single Electric Motor sends the power to the front wheels and gives you 170 kW of power and 330 Nm of torque it gets you from 0-100km in 7.3 seconds. The battery is 69 kWh and has a WLTP rating of 434km of range.

We have the Recharge twin electric motor, having 2 motors allows it to be AWD it produces 300 kW of power and 660 nm of torque it's significantly faster than the single motor and skips to 100km/h in just 4.7 seconds. The battery is larger at 78 kWh and offers 420 km of range WLTP.

The listed charge time for this battery, on a 150 kWh fast charger is 40 mins. That will get you from 10-80%. The battery architecture is 400v and not as fast as the architecture we see in some other EVs which can offer related charging times in under 20 mins.

The pricing structure is very simple. The C40 recharge starts at 81,666 driveaway for the single motor and smaller battery Plus trim. You add $7979 to jump up to this ultimate trim. The total cost becoming $89,645 driveaway.
