Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Smart looks
Nice interior
Diesel's fuel economy

Cons
Rear-wheel steer feels strange
Dual-clutch gearbox
Boot smaller than old model

By: 
carwow.co.uk

The C40 Recharge, despite sharing much of its mechanical bits and interior design with the XC40 Recharge, is an all-new model for the Volvo lineup.

Pros
Peppy acceleration,
stylish inside and out,
clever interior storage solutions.

Cons
Sloped roof creates big blind spots,
quirky infotainment interface,
driving range isn't groundbreaking.

By:

Pros
Powerful dual-motor setup will likely provide impressive acceleration
Stylish exterior design
Sleek interior with impressive list of standard features

Cons
Sloping rear roof makes for limited rear headroom
Online-only purchasing limits availability

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
Looks great on the outside…
…and on the inside
Blistering electric performance

Cons
Terrible rear visibility
Not particularly fun to drive
Other electric SUVs have better range
