Volvo release their first coupe suv C40 recharge
Volvo Cars unveiled the world’s first pure electric vehicle Volvo C40 Recharge, which symbolizes a zero-emission future through electrification. Designed based on the CMA platform, the C40 Recharge is the brand’s first pure electric vehicle model. This is also the result of demonstrating the vision for electrification that by 2025, 50% of global sales will be made up of pure electric vehicles and the rest will be made up of hybrid models. Volvo Motors, which previously launched the XC40 recharged model on the global market, plans to launch several more models in the future to convert all models sold to pure electric vehicles by 2030.
C40 Recharge’s design & feature
“The C40 Recharge represents Volvo’s future and shows where we are going,” said Henrik Green, Volvo Cars Chief Technology Officer. “It’s not only powered entirely by electricity, but comes with a special service package that integrates both on- and off-line. The C40 Recharge has all the advantages of an SUV, while still being designed with a lower and sleek design. The headlights with state-of-the-art pixel technology. In addition, the rear has a unique design that connects to the lower roof line.
The interior has a high seat position favored by most Volvo drivers. In addition, you can choose from a variety of colors and decorations that are available as model-specific options. The C40 Recharge is also the first Volvo model to use no leather at all. The thrust consisted of twin electric motors, one on the front and one on the rear axle. It is powered by a 78kWh battery that charges up to 40% in 40 minutes. The maximum driving distance per charge is about 420 km, which will be improved through wireless software updates in the future.
Meanwhile, the C40 Recharge can be purchased online in accordance with Volvo’s new EV sales strategy. We plan to build a purchasing process in cooperation with retail partners to reduce the complexity of customers and make ordering simpler and more convenient. In addition, special packages such as services that maximize customer convenience by integrating on-offline, warranty, and charging options will be provided. Mass production of the C40 Recharge will begin this fall. And Ghent plant in Belgium will produce along with the XC40 Recharge.
