2024 Volvo C40 Recharge and XC40 Recharge First Drive: Same Old Fling

2024 Volvo C40 Recharge and XC40 Recharge First Drive: Same Old Fling

There was a time, young children, when rear-wheel-drive Volvos were A Thing—in fact, until the introduction of the 850 in 1992*, rear-wheel-drive Volvos were the only thing, much to the chagrin of Rust Belt yuppies who had to slip and slide their kids to and from school every snowy winter. But we've entered a new electric age when front-wheel drive no longer has the advantage of an engine to weigh down the wheels, and we're tickled to learn Volvo's first single-motor electric luxury SUVs, the 2024 XC40 Recharge and the coupe-profile C40 Recharge, will employ rear-wheel drive, just as god and Gustave Larson intended. And if that's not enough, all-wheel-drive versions now have a rear power bias.

* Yes, yes, we know about the 340, 440, and 480, but they were never sold in the U.S., so we're not counting them.
