Volvo XC40 Recharge (Pure Electric)

Volvo launched the XC40 all electric to compete in the small SUV category against Ford, Hyundai, Nissan and Kia. The car has a relatively large battery so charge times are too slow with type 1 EV chargers. It has a 78 kWh battery and a fast acceptance rate, which determines how fast you can charge the vehicle.

Recommendation: If you need fast charges during the day, do not live close to commercial charging stations, or want to charge overnight during off peak or super off peak charging hours (when electricity is cheaper, it is better to do a fast charge), then we recommend our Volvo XC40 Recharge NEMA 14-50 40 amp 9.6 kWh or NEMA 14-30 24 amp 5.8 kWh EV charger (you may have this EV plug type already at home). Both provide the fastest plug in charge times. Approximate charge time from empty < 8 hours (4 hours from a 50% battery) with a NEMA 14-50 40 amp 9.6kWh charger. All our EV chargers are SAE J1772 standard so compatible with your Volvo XC40 Recharge
