Handsome, Comfortable, and Safe Volvo EV

Volvo’s reputation for attractive, safe, and eco-friendly vehicles continues with the 2022 Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric SUV. The well-equipped SUV has impressive performance, comfortable features, and the legendary Volvo quality and reliability.

If you’re in the market for an outstanding EV with ample room for five adults and plenty of gear, the XC40 Recharge should be on your radar.

Plenty of Horsepower and Full-Time All-Wheel Drive

The 2022 XC40 comes in two trims, the Plus and Ultimate. Both come standard with the same powertrain with two electric motors, full-time all-wheel drive, and a rechargeable 75 kWh battery pack. The battery has a range of 223 miles per charge and can deliver an EPA-estimated 92/79 MPGe in the city and on the highway. Drivers can load the battery with the 240-volt Level 2 charging cables or with a speedy DC fast charger.

What is notable about the XC40 Recharge is the horsepower and zero-to-60 speed. With 402 horsepower it can reach 60 MPH off the line in a quick 4.3 seconds, making it a significantly speedy little SUV. Volvo offers one-pedal driving for regenerative braking, as many drivers find it a convenient feature that increases battery range.

Legendary Safety in a Volvo EV

Volvo continues its commitment to safety with the XC40 Recharge. It was awarded a Top Safety Pick+ rating from the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety. Unfortunately, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration did not rate the 2021 or the 2022 models yet.

Volvo adds a comprehensive collection of standard safety features in every XC40 Recharge. They include Collision Mitigation in the Front and Rear, Lane Keeping Aid and Run-off Road Mitigation, Aerial View Camera System, Lane Departure Warning, 360 Surround View Camera, Blind Spot Information System with Steer Assist, Front and Rear Parking Sensors, and Driver Monitoring Alert that gives warnings to the driver when their eyes veer from the road.

All 2022 XC40 Recharge models also come with Standard Adaptive Cruise Control with Semi-Autonomous Driving Mode. This system functions effortlessly on several thousands of divided highways around the United States.

Well-Equipped to Inform and Entertain

Volvo also added a plethora of infotainment features, which is where the two trims differ. The Twin Plus trim comes with an eight-speaker sound system and a 12.3-inch digital driver display featured in two LCD monitors in the front row.

The Twin Plus also has Bluetooth connectivity, four USB-C ports, and a Google Digital Services Package with Google Assistant, Google Play, and Google Maps. For added convenience, the Twin Plus also has SiriusXM Real-Time Traffic Display.

Buyers who want an upgraded infotainment system can choose the Twin Ultimate trim. Optional features on this trim include the Harman/Kardon Premium Sound System with a Premium Amplifier. It also comes with optional inductive charging. The upgraded trim also has an option Digital Signal Processor as well as SiriusXM with Steering Wheel Controls, Voice Controls, and a Radio Data System.

Premium Styling in a Compact SUV

Volvo has interior comfort down to a science. The XC40 Recharge Pure Electric SUV has a comfortable driving position with plenty of space for five. The automaker figured out how to include two electric motors without losing any space in the cabin and cargo space. Since it doesn’t have a combustion engine in the front, it has a spacious frunk that offers more space for gear and groceries.

Drivers who choose the XC40 Recharge comment on the smart storage cubbies strategically located around the vehicle. The Twin Plus trim has Nubuck upholstery with heated front seats. For convenience, the SUV has a truly unique feature: a refrigerated box in the glovebox and all four door bins.

The Twin Ultimate trim has the same comfortable upholstery and seat features. It also comes with Voice-activated controls for the HVAC system and the Sensus Navigation Pro Integrated System.

On the outside, the attractive SUV is undoubtedly an EV. It has a futuristic look, while still looking like it belongs in the Volvo lineup. The Twin Plus comes standard with 19-inch wheels, while the Twin Ultimate has 20-inch wheels. Both trims have a power sunroof for the front and second row.

They also have LED headlights and brake lights, as well as cornering lights and Aero-Composite LED running lights.
