Volvo Cars have announced upgrades to their XC40 and related C40 Recharge models to provide more range, improved powertrains, and a new RWD version, writes Brian Byrne.
The brand’s two key electric cars also gain faster charging times at suitable charge points.
Both cars are now available to order in Ireland with prices starting at €61,715.
The cars now come with 82kWh batteries, which have extended range by up to 62km.
The arrival of a RWD version is the first time in 25 years that Volvo have produced such a configuration.
The AWD vehicles benefit from two new electric motors, the more powerful of which has been developed by Volvo in-house.
