Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric Price Is A Hassle-Free RM262k

Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric_TopThe Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric EV recently unveiled by Volvo Car Malaysia recently came without an official retail price. But as promised during the unveiling that a price would be announced on 4 April 2022, the company revealed that the company’s first pure electric vehicle (EV) will come with a hassle-free price* of RM262,459.75.

The launch of XC40 Recharge Pure Electric represented a significant milestone for Volvo Car Malaysia as it becomes the first luxury car brand in the country to assemble EVs locally. Assembled at the Volvo plant in Shah Alam, Volvo Car Malaysia will be exporting EVs to other ASEAN countries.

Volvo Car Malaysia_Charles Frum_Managing Director“We are delighted to launch our first pure EV in Malaysia. The launch lays the foundation for us to become the leading electric luxury car brand in the country. To support this, we are committed to launching a new electric vehicle every year for next 5 years. In addition, we have the capabilities to assemble our own pure EVs for the local and other ASEAN markets,” said Charles Frump, Managing Director of Volvo Car Malaysia.

This is in line with Volvo Cars’ global ambition of a 50% contribution from its pure electric line-up by 2025; to be a fully electric car company by 2030; and becoming a climate-neutral company by 2040.

The XC40 Recharge Pure Electric is based on the XC40 compact premium SUV which is built on the Compact Modular Architecture (CMA) platform. This compact EV features a fully electric all-wheel-drive powertrain with a 78 kWh lithium-ion battery pack that offers a driving range of up to 418 km** on a single charge. A pair of electric motors drive each axle and provides 402 hp and 660 Nm of torque. This allows this XC40 to go from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds.

The XC40 Recharge Pure Electric also uses Google services in its user interface for a more convenient and hands-free driving experience.
