Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

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: 
caranddriver.com

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

By: 
carwow.co.uk

PROS
Unmistakeable looks,
great comfort,
agreeable electric version

CONS
You can't get a quick one.
But it wouldn't work anyway

By: 
topgear.com

The Citroën C4 is very temptingly priced for a coupé SUV, while comfort and refinement also impress. You do pay for its cushiness with roly-poly handling, though, and there are more practical options.

PROS
Comfortable ride
Little wind or road noise
Well priced

CONS
Body lean in bends
Boot is on the small side
No alarm on entry-level model

By: 
whatcar.com

PROS
Ride comfort and general quietness
Eager and efficient engines
Spacious, minimalist interior

CONS
Go elsewhere if you want sportiness
No hybrid models available
Divisive styling won't universally appeal
