The new Volvo C40 Recharge is the Swedish automaker’s second full electric vehicle after it introduced the XC40 Recharge in 2022.

The difference between the two models is that the Recharge has no internal combustion engine counterpart; it’s a standalone EV that features a coupe-style slanted roof. It will be sold exclusively online instead of at dealerships, and will cost R1 285 000. Other EVs with similar pricing include the Mercedes-Benz EQB for R1 305 000, and the BMW iX1 at R1 140 000.
