Volvo unveils new, pure electric Volvo C40 Recharge at The Bangkok International Motor Show 2022
The rear of the C40 Recharge features a striking rear-end design to go with the lower roofline, while the new front design introduces a new face for electric Volvos. Inside, the C40 Recharge provides customers with the high seating position that most Volvo drivers prefer, while it is available with a range of colour and deco options unique to the model.
Mr. Chris Wailes, Managing Director of Volvo Car (Thailand) Limited said “The C40 Recharge is the first Volvo model in history to be designed as an electric only car, and we are excited to bring this cutting-edge technology for Thai drivers to experience. Since offering only electric-powered cars in 2019 we have been impressed by Thai consumers’ enthusiasm to own a more sustainable car. To meet this need we aim to launch at least one new pure electric car every year. However, being a sustainable company is not just about electric cars. At Volvo Cars, we have committed to reducing our carbon footprint by 50% within the next 3 years, and this requires focus and includes our retail partners. The future of Volvo Cars is electric, and we invite Thai drivers to join us on our journey.”
By June, fast charging systems will be available at all Volvo retailers, and in just 37 minutes drivers can recharge their car while having a coffee. Volvo has already installed over 3,300 customer charging stations since 2019 in addition to Thailand’s EA Anywhere network. As part of its commitment to zero emissions, Volvo is also building solar panel charging stations at retail outlets in Bangkok and around Thailand to harness the power of the sun.
Like the XC40 Recharge, the C40 Recharge comes with one of the best infotainment systems on the market, jointly developed with Google and based on the Android operating system. It provides consumers with Google apps and services built-in, such as Google Maps, Google Assistant, and the Google Play Store . The car features twin electric motors, one on the front and one on the rear axle, powered by a 78kWh battery that can be fast-charged to 80 percent in about 40 minutes . It offers an anticipated range of around 420 km, which is expected to improve over time via over-the-air software updates.
