As European automakers continue to venture further into electrification, Volvo is gradually becoming a leader with innovative models such as the new Volvo XC40 Recharge, the EV version of the award-winning XC40 crossover.
If you have been thinking about whether EVs are good for daily driving near Saint James, NY, you should come to Empire Volvo Cars Smithtown and test drive the new Volvo XC40 Recharge, a car that will quickly make you forget about internal combustion engines.
Volvo XC40 Recharge Charging
The new Volvo XC40 Recharge is in its first generation, an urban compact crossover with a driving range of 233 miles. When you plug in the XC40 Recharge at home and leave it charging overnight, the battery will be 100 percent in the morning. When you plug it into a public DC fast-charging station, you can go from 10 percent to 80 percent in less than 40 minutes around the Oakdale, NY area.
To get a better perspective of the energy savings provided by the XC40 EV, the American Automobile Association estimates that the average driver commutes about 33 miles per day, which means that the 75-kilowatt-hour battery would need to be charged at least once per week. The XC40 Recharge makes perfect financial sense for daily driving around the Kings Park, NY, area.
Volvo XC40 Recharge Features
There is more than sustainability and cost-savings associated with the XC40 Recharge. Like the stealth performance station wagons that Volvo is known for, the powertrain and driveline of the XC40 Recharge pack a punch with 402 horsepower and an acceleration of zero to 60 miles per hour of just 4.7 seconds.
Besides this impressive performance, the XC40 Recharge is also an elegant and comfortable vehicle. It has a panoramic glass roof, heated front seats, and a premium sound system. As you can expect from a Volvo crossover, the XC40 has various advanced safety features such as automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, and blind spot alerts to keep you safe all around the Stony Brook, NY area.
