Volvo has finally announced US pricing for its full 2024 model range, including the electric Volvo C40 Recharge and Volvo XC40 Recharge. As we know, the all-electric C40 and XC40 models are much improved and offer a much better EPA range of nearly 300 miles. Their prices are no different than before.
The 2024 Volvo C40 Recharge, with all-new rear-wheel drive, starts at an MSRP of $53,600 and is rated at 297 miles of EPA range, using an all-new 82 kWh battery. The all-wheel drive version costs an additional $1,750. At $55,350, it’s basically on par with the all-wheel-drive version for 2023. That car’s EPA range is now 257 miles, up from 226 miles previously. Given this range increase of less than two years, plus an all-new, lower-priced rear-wheel drive version with some very respectable range, it’s safe to say the Volvo C40 Recharge is a better deal than ever.
In the case of the 2024 Volvo XC40 Recharge, the rear-drive version starts at an MSRP of $52,450, while the all-wheel-drive version starts at $54,200 ($650 more than the 2023MY version). In this case, the destination fee is slightly higher ($1,195, compared to the previous $1,095 and C40). Furthermore, Volvo notes that this marks the return of a rear-wheel drive powertrain to its range after 25 years.
