The big news for 2021 is the addition of a pure electric variant called XC40 Recharge P8 AWD. Offering just over 400 horsepower, this compact SUV is able to travel up to 335 kilometres with a fully charged battery. Other XC40 models can be powered by turbocharged four-cylinder engines ranging from 187-248 horsepower. In typical Volvo fashion, safety is covered by a long list of active features.
Pros
- New fully electric version
