Volvo has quickly reacted to the entry of Asian manufacturers into the electric SUV space rounding off their XC40 Recharge range with this single-motor variant that now positions the electric XC40 alluringly close to the alternatives. As part of the barter then, the customer gets one less motor (as the name suggests) and a smaller 69kWh battery pack. The good thing is, that since the powertrain now draws less on power, the range has effectively stayed the same. The E60 gets a WLTP-rated range of 475km, which should translate to at least 400km in the real world. An even more attractive proposition when you realise that Volvo has kept most of the components from the range-topping E80, meaning that you still get the 150kW DC fast-charging capability, and a 22kW home wall-box should charge the car fully in 4 hours.
