The C40 Recharge is a coupe-style, fully electric variant of the XC40 small crossover. Base models feature a single motor (245 horsepower) driving the rear wheels and drawing energy from an 82kWh battery. Meanwhile, AWD models use a pair of motors delivering a combined 402 horsepower. Their battery is a tad smaller (78 kWh). Due to the sloping roofline in the rear, trunk capacity is not as generous as the XC40’s (489 litres with the seats up).
Pros
- Improved range
- Sufficient power (rear-wheel drive)
- Fun to drive
- Chic and comfortable seats
Cons
- Lower range than the competition
- Less practical trunk than XC40 Recharge
