VolVo xC40 reCharge pro
The Volvo xC40 has been around for a little time but now a makeover has been introduced to the external and internal appearance, but the major feature of the new xC40 is it has now become a fully electric SUV, designed to compete with plethora of other SUVs in the pure electric market, writes Bob Hickman.
Externally it is difficult to know that the new xC40 is pure electric, the external dimensions look very similar to the conventional petrol and diesel xC40 with the exception of the front grille has now been effectively closed off because there is no need for air to run through the radiator or be part of the cooling.
The xC40 has a lovely wonderful high seating position with generous amounts of legroom, both front and in the rear, and this high seating position, gives wonderful panoramic views from the vehicle. In addition, the carrying capacity is excellent with a huge boot. The xC 40 has a plethora, of technical features so much so I reckon it would take you a week to learn the full capacity of this vehicle. However, if you are a technophobe, it is without doubt the vehicle for you.
One of the features that you become acquainted with are the huge mapping displays, one is contained within the conventional binnacle, in front of the steering wheel, and the other Google maps on the huge infotainment system. The trim itself is beautiful, the dashboard is clear and the controls to use a cliche all fall nicely to hand, although you do need to work and check on what they all actually do.
The major difference however with this particular xC40 is the fact that it is a pure electric. The 231bhp electric motor is a willing companion, and performance is linear like in its 0-60 acceleration in just 7 seconds, a top speed of 99mph is claimed but it is not about top speed when you go electric.
