Volvo C40 Recharge
The C40 Recharge lineup expands for 2023 with the addition of two trim levels called Core and Plus. Pricing is revised in the process, and EV rebates apply for this vehicle. Dual electric motors combine to deliver 402 horsepower, while the 78 kWh battery provides a range of about 360 km. The C40 Recharge has a stylish, coupe-like exterior, but if you prefer a more conventional SUV, you can find the same attributes in the XC40 Recharge.
