Volvo C40 Recharge
Sharing its platform and powertrain components with the XC40 Recharge, the brand new C40 Recharge is pretty much the same vehicle except with a coupe-like profile and a slightly revised front end. Another difference is that you can’t order one with natural leather seats, only synthetic materials. The two electric motors combine to generate 402 horsepower and create an all-wheel drive setup. As for range, it is estimated at more than 320 kilometres.
