SINGAPORE - Volvo’s latest full battery electric vehicle , the C40 Recharge, has been launched in Singapore. The C40 is essentially an XC40 with a sloping rear roofline, but the car will be available exclusively with an electric drivetrain only.
Both the C40 and XC40 share the same CMA platform architecture, and the most obvious visible difference is that the C40 features a sleeker profile that gives it a coupe-SUV look. Volvo adds though that the design has also been optimised for aerodynamic efficiency, with the rear spoiler aiding towards that cause as well.
Inside, the C40 is classic Volvo, with the large vertical screen taking centre stage on the dashboard, and the infotainment running on the Google Android Automotive system that has been seen on recent newer Volvos, but the system has now also been updated to allow for Apple CarPlay integration. Powering the C40 Recharge is a set of twin electric motors that produces a combined 408hp and 660Nm of torque, allowing the car to go from 0-100km/h in just 4.7 seconds. The 78kWh battery gives the car an electric driving range of up to 450km, with a claimed efficiency figure of 21kWh/100km.
