The Volvo C40 is the Swedish manufacturer\u2019s first electric-only model. This crossover-style SUV features a characteristic sloping rear roofline to distinguish it from its more conventional XC40 sibling. Crossovers are currently all the rage, as buyers desert regular MPV-style cars in their droves in favour of the ever-evolving SUV body...

Part psychology, part image, the crossover is fast emerging as the acceptable face of big-car design, blending a spacious cabin with elevated ride height and relatively svelte looks.

Under the skin there’s a choice of two models, the Recharge and Recharge Twin. The latter has dual electric motors for all-wheel-drive and a corresponding bump in power. The 75KW battery offers a maximum range of 274 miles, although real-world constraints and complexities will knock 10 – 20 per cent or more off that. This puts the C40 firmly into the EV hinterland, where range anxiety still lurks at the corners of the mind.
