Volvo has updated its C40 and XC40 Recharge electric vehicles to provide longer ranges and faster charging rates, writes Brian Byrne.
The company now rates the two cars' ranges at up to 578km and 570km respectively, while the maximum charging rate has been increased from 150kW to 200kW where available. This cuts nine minutes of previous charging times.
The changes were achieved by changing the FWD single-motor cars to RWD, and on the AWD versions providing larger batteries.
Both cars are available to order now from €61,715, with deliveries expected from July.
