The automaker is offering two different versions, one with a 235 horsepower (175 kW) electric motor and a 69-kWh battery pack, and the other with a 248 horsepower (185 kW) motor and an 82-kWh battery pack.
Both versions will have a 0-62 mph acceleration time of 7.4 seconds and a top speed of 100 mph. The base model with the smaller battery pack will have a range of 460 kilometers in the WLTP cycle and 240 miles according to the EPA for the XC40, while the C40 will have a range of 470 km and 245 miles. With the larger battery pack, the XC40 will have a range of 520 kilometers and 270 miles, while the C40 will have a range of 530 kilometers and 275 miles.
Volvo has also stated that the 69-kWh battery can be charged from 10 to 80 percent in around 34 minutes from a 130-kW DC public charger, and the larger battery pack can charge at up to 200 kW in 28 minutes. The dual-motor XC40 and C40 Recharge models will have a WLTP-certified range of 500 kilometers and 510 kilometers respectively.
Additionally, the 2023 model year will feature newly designed 19-inch wheels with aerodynamic efficiency in mind and a new two-phase onboard charger in the plug-in hybrid models from the 60 and 90 Series, which doubles the maximum charging power to 6.4 kW.
