Intertgly, global markets do get a toned-down versn of the XC40 Recharge wh ls horsepower and torque, but the U.S. currently don’t. The r we n buy here has performance numbers that are typilly only available on higher-end EVs, and that partially explas the higher startg price.

For those who want to buy the r, the newly passed Inflatn Rctn Act has msed up the $7,500 feral tax cred the mols ed to get. If you’re fishg for a tax cred, you might want to do some onle rearch to see which rs currently qualify (ht: ’ll be those manufactured the U.S.) The l might change the future as r pani lobby Congrs, but for now the XC40 Recharge do not qualify. </p><div class="ptned-image-ntaer"><figure><a class="image-lk is-viewable-img image2" target="_blank" href=" data-ponent-name="Image2ToDOM" rel><div class="image2-set"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset=" 424w, 848w, 1272w, 1456w" siz="100vw" /><img src=" width="638" height="648.9546703296703" data-attrs="{"src":"" class="sizg-normal" alt srcset=" 424w, 848w, 1272w, 1456w" siz="100vw" loadg="lazy" /></picture><div class="image-lk-expand"><svg xmlns=" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="#FFFFFF" stroke-width="2" stroke-lep="round" stroke-lejo="round" class="luci luci-maximize2"><polyle pots="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyle><polyle pots="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyle><le x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></le><le x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></le></svg></div></div></a></figure></div><p>For my review, I tted the top-of-the-le mol wh every optn available, known as the Ultimate package (which sts $6,000 extra).

This is probably where the XC40 was most imprsive due to the sheer horsepower and torque they’ve put to this small SUV. There’s nothg like plantg your foot on the accelerator and blastg off like a sports r a crossover that most would attribute to a stylish soccer dad. In that way, the XC40 Recharge is tly a “sleeper” r - you don’t expect to do what do. I thk back to a 2011 BMW M3 I ed to have, the speed and power of which this r basilly match…which is sane. This would be an awome r to n errands and would fely brg a ltle fun to mundane rout. </p><p>One follower asked me whether the ri was bouncy - which isn’t somethg I would have noticed until the qutn was asked. It ma me pare the XC40 to the lower-to-the-ground Poltar 2, which se the ri the XC40 do feel ever-so-slightly bouncy parison. I thk the Poltar 2 has a slight edge drivg dynamics simply bee ’s more of a sedan than an SUV. But both are fun rs, and the XC40 ma me feel like I had more head and legroom, so that might be what down to if you are cidg between the two. </p><div class="ptned-image-ntaer"><figure><a class="image-lk is-viewable-img image2" target="_blank" href=" data-ponent-name="Image2ToDOM" rel><div class="image2-set"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset=" 424w, 848w, 1272w, 1456w" siz="100vw" /><img src=" width="574" height="765.2019230769231" data-attrs="{"src":"" class="sizg-normal" alt srcset=" 424w, 848w, 1272w, 1456w" siz="100vw" loadg="lazy" /></picture><div class="image-lk-expand"><svg xmlns=" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="#FFFFFF" stroke-width="2" stroke-lep="round" stroke-lejo="round" class="luci luci-maximize2"><polyle pots="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyle><polyle pots="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyle><le x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></le><le x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></le></svg></div></div></a></figure></div><p><span>As allud to before, I was ls than imprsed wh Volvo’s Pilot Assist self-drivg system. I hate to keep dog , but I go back to some of the entry-level rs I’ve recently tted like the Honda Civic and Hyundai Sonata - and I thk both of those systems were </span><em>more </em><span>imprsive than this much more expensive Pilot Assist package. The lane-keep assist was nsistent on anythg more dramatic than gentle highway curv. The adaptive cise ntrol had a uple of miss at tim that ma me nervo. I do love Volvo’s bld spot monor system and ol graphics on the si mirrors, but you get that on the base r anyway. You also get the emergency brakg and lane parture preventn on the base r, so those will probably do the trick for most people. I do love adaptive cise ntrol and e a lot my own r, but ’s a shame that you have to opt- to a $6,000 package when even a base Honda Civic has standard. </span></p><p><strong>Infotament and Sound System</strong></p><p>As I mentned before, the graphics and two digal display screens on this r are excellent.

Of urse, you should look up how many of those are available your area before relyg on public fast chargg as your only means of energy. At home on a level 2 charger, you should be able to charge the r unr 8 hours (0-100% would take 8 hours, but you’re generally not supposed to charge EVs to 100% or kills your battery faster).
