As we move further toward an electrified automotive future, Volvo is stepping up with some impressive early entries into the electric vehicle market. Here in Louisiana, you can currently pick up a new Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric crossover, and a coupe crossover follow-up is soon to join the family in 2022. As always, Giles Volvo Cars in Lafayette is your source for all things Volvo, including the XC40 Recharge and information about the upcoming Volvo C40 Recharge.
Bring Home a Volvo XC40 Recharge Today!
If you’re ready to put a new Volvo EV in your New Iberia or Opelousas driveway today, check out the Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric SUV, available now at our dealership. This compact SUV comfortably seats five while giving you 22 cubic feet of cargo space, and comes with all-wheel drive to complete the SUV experience. The only real difference is the all-electric powertrain which offers an impressive 402 horsepower and 486 pound-feet of torque. And instead of combustion engines that have a peak power and torque bands that are only optimized at certain rpms, electric motors give you the full peak torque at any speed, so you can put your foot down and get moving in a hurry. In fact, you’ll get to 60 mph from a standstill in just 4.7 seconds, but can still enjoy an EPA-estimated 208 miles of range when you settle in for a straightforward cruise.
The Upcoming Volvo C40 Recharge
Based upon the current Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric, the upcoming Volvo C40 Recharge offers a sportier take on this electric SUV. A true crossover, the sloped roofline and coupe body style help give the C40 Recharge a lower center of gravity and reduced weight for improved handling.
