Technology and Powertrains
The Volvo C40 range offers technical superiority and electric power optimized to serve demanding Nordic conditions. Saka's selection includes a comprehensive range of different power and battery versions that represent the cutting edge of electric driving.
Fully Electric Performance
The C40 is available in both rear-wheel drive (Single) and all-wheel drive (Twin) versions. The most powerful all-wheel drive delivers an impressive 408 horsepower, accelerating the car from zero to sixty in under 5 seconds. The electric powertrain offers immediate torque and German precision-like handling with every press of the pedal.
Range and Charging
The 78 kWh battery capacity enables, depending on the version, a range of over 440-530 kilometers (WLTP). The coupe styling's lower air resistance improves energy efficiency, especially at highway speeds. With fast charging, the battery fills from 10 percent to 80 percent in approximately 30-40 minutes, making even longer trips practical.
CMA Platform
The car is built on the advanced CMA platform (Compact Modular Architecture), designed to maximize interior space and safety. Placing the battery under the floor lowers the center of gravity, making driving stable and enjoyable on winding roads.
Volvo C40 Body Style
The Volvo C40 is a crossover model, recognizable by its streamlined, sloping roofline. It offers excellent road visibility in addition to its dynamic appearance.
Driving Experience and Premium Features
Volvo C40 exudes technological innovation and sporty character. It's designed for drivers who demand not only striking looks but also top-tier reliability and comfort from their vehicle.
Google-based Infotainment
At the heart of the car is a Google-based system with integrated Google Maps, Google Assistant, and Play Store. Navigation is always up-to-date, and voice control allows you to manage functions without taking your eyes off the road.
Intellisafe and Driver Assistance
Standard equipment includes a comprehensive package of driver assistance features, such as automatic emergency braking, Blind Spot Information System (BLIS), and Cross Traffic Alert. These systems significantly enhance safety and ease the driver's workload in both city traffic and highway driving.
Premium Interior and Audio
The interior is completely leather-free, reflecting Volvo's commitment to ethical practices. A high-end audio system is also available, ensuring a studio-quality listening experience in the quiet electric vehicle. The panoramic roof brings abundant light and a sense of spaciousness to the cabin.
