Volvo it was one of the premium manufacturers worst happened in the first decade of this century. The change she experienced when she went from Ford to Geely made her lose her way, especially in its lower range. Do you remember the C30 or S40? They were models that had a really high acceptance and sales volume. However, one and the other did not have the relief they deserved, because the V40 was not capable of capturing the essence and the clients that moved both.
Be that as it may, the money that Geely put into the Swedish house served to make it grow and match its rivals. Even more so if it is electric mobility, where you have products as good as the Volvo C40 Recharge. But be careful, don't let this name mislead you, it has nothing to do with the sedan we talked about before. Now this Coupe-style SUV lands on the market with very clear ideas: he wants to shine and to do so he will give the best of the house.
The Volvo C40 Recharge can only be ordered and purchased online...
The first thing we should know, if we want to buy a unit of the Volvo C40 Recharge, is that only sold online. This is, that although we can see some unit in the official network of the firm, we will not be able to finalize your purchase there. With this sales method, those responsible for the model ensure a higher level of exclusivity and better control of your production. In addition, customers also have other advantages, such as their customization.
If we take a look at the Volvo C40 Recharge web configurator, we see that the process is very simple. For now is available in a single finish, that it's called Standard o Recharge Twin Pure Electric. As with its brother XC40 Recharge, the firm defines it as follows: The fully electric crossover, with a stylized profile, black roof, glossy black aesthetic details and wheels with a unique design to attract all eyes.
However, and as we are used to, its level of equipment and options are at the height of the best premium manufacturer. Among the elements to highlight we can mention Pixel LED headlights, a 9-inch central screen, a 12-inch digital cockpit or a 360º camera with assisted parking system, rear and side. In security, there is also Lane Keeping Aid, Oncoming Lane Mitigation or Road Sign Information.
Launch price for the Spanish market…
considering the positioning of the new Volvo C40 Recharge its price seems adequate to us. It is true that it is close to the barrier of 60 thousand euros, but for quality and technological level it is worth it. Also, its rivals are in a similar bracket, offering some less equipment details. Regarding whether or not there are discounts, we will have to wait to find out if their sales are as expected. If not, you'll still need them...
