Overview

The Volvo XC40 Recharge (EX40) Pure Electric (2022) is an all-electric front-wheel drive SUV. It came out in 2022. Volvo stopped making the Pure Electric in 2022 and replaced it with the Volvo XC40 Recharge (EX40) Single Motor (2022-…). The car is not available on the US market.

The Volvo XC40 Recharge (EX40) Pure Electric (2022) has a 69 kWh battery pack, allowing it to travel up to 227 mi on a single charge — ranked №495 out of 858 electric vehicles.

How powerful is it? How fast does it accelerate?

The Volvo XC40 Recharge (EX40) Pure Electric (2022) is equipped with a powertrain that delivers up to 170 kW (228 hp) of power and 243 lb-ft of torque.

This enables a 0 to 60 mph acceleration in 7.1 seconds (№55 out of 118 ranked positions, among 858 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions) and a top speed of 99 mph.

How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?

The estimated real-world range for Volvo XC40 Recharge (EX40) Pure Electric (2022) is 227 miles, ranking it №141 out of 254 ranked positions. Several conditions can influence this range:

Speed: The battery drains faster at higher speeds.
Temperature: Extreme temperatures can impact range.
Terrain: Range is reduced on hilly or mountainous terrain.
Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors, such as frequent acceleration and braking, decrease efficiency.
Feature utilization: Climate control and media system usage also affect range.

These figures are approximations, and your actual driving range may vary. When planning trips, consider these factors and be prepared for potential charging stops.

For trip planning assistance, utilize the EV Navigation interactive map.

What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?

The Volvo XC40 Recharge (EX40) Pure Electric (2022) in the USA is equipped with a CCS Type 2 charging port. You can charge it conveniently at home using a standard outlet, or utilize any public AC charging station with the appropriate cable. However, the car's built-in charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging speed to 11 kW, which translates to roughly 34 miles of range added per hour.

For faster charging, use DC fast-charging stations. The Volvo XC40 Recharge (EX40) Pure Electric (2022) supports a maximum DC charging rate of 150 kW, but it's important to note that battery temperature and current charge level can affect the actual charging speed you'll experience.

To estimate charging time, rate, and cost, you can use EV Charging Calculator.
