Volvo EC40 EV Review - Select Car Leasing

Volvo’s all-electric EC40 (previously C40) Recharge takes the regular XC40 Recharge SUV and puts a unique, eye-catching spin on things.

The EC40 Recharge has a more swooping, coupe-like exterior than the XC40 Recharge, and it sits 70mm lower, too, giving it a more sporty, dynamic look.

And because there’s an abundance of power - 231 hp - the Volvo EC40 Recharge acts as a great alternative to lease cars like the Tesla Model 3 and the Audi Q4 e-tron.

A 78kWh battery supplies power to two motors, which drive both the front and rear wheels.

You can enjoy a range of around 274 miles between charges, and the battery can be replenished from 0-80% full in just 28 minutes via 150 kW rapid charging.

The EC40 has a 0-62mph time of just 7.4 seconds. With zero emissions at the tailpipe, business lease customers will also reap the rewards of 2% Benefit in Kind (BIK) tax.

Next up, we’ve got the BYD Dolphin, the Lotus Eletre and the Ford Explorer ⚡ so stay tuned.

I bought one (C40 twin) and have run it now for three months. First a correction the car has a new 82kWh batteyr (79 net) and has a claimed range of 347 miles. This follows the updated version from mid2023 and is very much more efficent that previous versions ( due to new motors and drives) -meaning better range.I get a real 300miles from mine.
Its really a very good car -goes like stink, quiet refined and is remarkably practical. I tried it off raod and it is really good and it can tow almost 2 tons!
Downsides -the instrumentation is a bit limited and the EV information is also poor compared with other makes.However the voice control actually works and is very useful.
It shows how good EVs can be.
