Volvo has launched its first electric car in India — the XC40 Recharge — at ₹55.90 lakh (ex-showroom, India), which makes it ₹11.40 lakh more expensive than its petrol-powered namesake.
The EV SUV will be assembled at Volvo’s facility in Hoskote near Bengaluru, making it India’s first luxury EV to be locally assembled. The XC40 Recharge is available exclusively on Volvo’s website and buyers will be able to place orders from July 27 for a token amount of ₹50,000.
The XC40 Recharge will come with an 11kW wall-box charger, with Volvo offering a three-year warranty on the car and eight years on the batteries.
