By 40 between 2018 and 2025. this plan is the first tangible step towards volvo cars aimed to become climate neutral by 2040. some of the aesthetic differences that you’re going to find in the xc40 recharge is the front grille you’ll note that it is now completely covered as there is no need to feed cool air into an intercooler behind it since there is no longer
An engine another key notable difference here is the imprinted recharge on the blacked out roof also on the side you’re going to find the charging port for your xc40 the recharge has a large 78 kilowatt battery that is estimated to give you a range of over 400 kilometers it’s great for long distance travel and perfect for inner city driving and as the battery
Lays flat on the floor it gives the xc40 a low center of gravity which greatly improves its handling characteristics and evens out weight distribution when connected to a 150 kilowatt fast charging dc station the xc40 can recharge from eight zero to eighty percent in 40 minutes see what i did there yeah anyway when charging from home you can easily charge
