Frequently Asked Questions

How powerful is it? How fast does it accelerate?

The Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric achieves a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 7.4 seconds (placing it at №408 among 667 electric vehicles) and attains a maximum speed of 160 km/h.

Its powertrain provides a power output of up to 172 kW (231 hp) and a torque of 330 Nm.

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

Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric achieves a How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range? of 329–403 km, placing it at №394 among 667 electric vehicles. However, this range is subject to several influences:

Speed: Traveling at higher speeds reduces battery life.
Temperature: Extreme cold or hot weather can affect range.
Terrain: Hilly or mountainous landscapes decrease range.
Driving habits: Aggressive driving with frequent acceleration and braking consumes more energy.
Feature usage: Climate control and media systems also influence range.

It's important to acknowledge that these are estimations, and your actual driving range may differ. Consider these factors when planning your trip and be ready for potential charging stops.

Utilize the interactive EV Navigation map for trip planning assistance.

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

The Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric in Europe 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.
