2022 Volvo C40 review // This electric SUV or the XC40?

#VolvoC40
#C40Recharge
#CoupleCarReview
This is a Motormouth couple car review of the all-new Volvo C40 Recharge full electric compact SUV. Based on the Volvo XC40 Recharge electric crossover, this more stylish utility is much more expensive. The C40 has a twin P8 AWD electric powertrain with a 78 kWh battery. 402 horsepower and 486 lb-ft of torque with 364 km/225 miles of EV range. It has a starting price of $72,600 CAD/$58,750 USD. The Volvo C40 Recharge is based on the same platform as the XC40 Recharge but there is no gas model available like the XC40 and it has a coupe-like exterior design with a slim profile, black roof, black exterior accents including the mirror caps and 20” wheels with a diamond cut design. The rear wheels are wider than the front wheels to optimize handling, traction and control. It comes standard with LED headlights, taillights, fog lights and headlamp cleaners. The C40 has a heat pump and a heated windscreen washer nozzle. This Volvo crossover comes standard with a 9” touchscreen with the Google Android-based infotainment system, 12.3” driver display, 360-degree camera, a Harman Kardon audio system, heated front seats, power driver and passenger seat, driver seat memory, a heated steering wheel, heated rear seats, a panoramic roof and hands-free power tailgate.The charcoal and blue interior of the Volvo C40 Recharge is 100% leather-free including the steering wheel, gear shifter and upholstery, it has a bit of a contemporary design. The seats have partly recycled microfibre seat panels and inserts in Microtech, a synthetic material. Front power driver and passenger seats with 4-way power lumbar support add comfort for those long drives. It offers a higher seating position similar to the XC40 and there are smart storage solutions throughout the cabin including a centre console garbage can. The C40 has an 11 kW onboard charger and with a DC Faster charger you can charge from 10-80% in about 33 minutes. With a Level 2 Charger about 8 hours. The C40 does not qualify for the Canadian Federal EV rebate of $5,000 but the XC40 Recharge does. In the US, the C40 qualifies for tax up to $7,500.

I love my Fjord Blue C40 Recharge. The boy is a beast of a power, slick, simply designed, sexy as it’s curves and power. It has gotten so many compliments from strangers (at Costco), family, friends especially on the color. The mountain ranges inscribed on the dash and windows make it a absolute delight “gives me a lounge kind of relaxing environment”. The google built in architecture is flawless, and Perhaps the most iconic feature of the new 2022 Volvo C40 is its stylish exterior. The sloping roofline, modern interior, and ecstatic demeanor make it a formidable contender in the compact SUV segment. With OTA 2.2 software update, the Apple Car Play is awesome!. I am an iPhone geek, but have been an Android guy too! There is just enough space for grocery bags stashed from Trader Joe’s, Costco or whatever! I have had buddies driving Teslas Model Y, X…who are impressed with its sexiness and versatility. I still cannot spot a C40 in and around 6 states where I live. It’s a very special and unique product that I believe Volvo head honchos did a solid work with. The sustainability processes and materials used in the development process makes me as an Owner feel like a sustainable maven. So long to the gasoline stupidity! 🙌🙂.

[@HunTerDing]

Great video as usual! But, I don't quiet get why you folks don't like the one-pedal drive in EVs. Zach mentioned several times that it makes him feel sick. But I found it makes the drive more smooth. You just need to release the accelerator pedal gently bit by bit, and it will slow down really smoothly!

[@lbc2840]

While being the driver, it is fine. But as a passenger it is nauseating. To me anyways.

[@kevinochsner6155]

The one pedal drive in the i3 turned me off. Coasting is much nicer. Having to keep your foot at a precise pressure in order to keep the ride consistent causes anxiety.

[@symphony2929]

It’s jerky and can be nauseating

Another informative and fun video. And, once again, I thank you very much for your opinion and honesty with the shortcomings. Your insight is much appreciated AND respected. Great job as usual!

[@jgs1564]

Another great review from you guys! I remember staying at Howard Johnsons growing up as a child in the 60’s/70’s. I forgot about the blue carpet in their rooms. I Googled it and sure enough, it’s almost EXACTLY the same shade of blue as that of the Volvo!! I got a good laugh out of that!!

[@danhall3450]

I so appreciate it when you plainly state the negatives and your true impressions as Andrea did in the conclusion. So many reviewers are "rah rah" about all the positive aspects and simple gloss over - or worse ignore -- the negative aspects.

[@willyq25]

for 2023 you can now get the C40 in the 'basic' trim which puts it at the same price point as the XC40, so you will be able to get the rebates!

[@andreaspencer9813]

I would have loved it if Volvo sent us this new information with the spec sheet.

[@TalismanPHX]

Definitely the Cadillac Lyriq. I completely agree with Zach. Also, it's criminal that 360 degree cameras, cooled front seats, and more range isn't standard at $72000 CAD

[@lewistalmadge6703]

Great video. This vehicle was on my list of next buy options along with the XC40 electric. However, I am not an electric fan and only wanted it for the extra horsepower as we own a 2020 XC40 T5 gas version. The turn away was the obscured back window which is why I also did not go for the BMW X2 M35i and just purchased a 2022 Mercedes GLA 35 that I am loving. I also got $3,200 off sticker price which is unheard of in this market. Thanks for the review.

[@CaryInVictoria]

In Canada the single trim (loaded) C40 was unbundled In June 2022. It is now available in three trims that are directly comparable to the XC40 Recharge's trims: Core, Plus and Ultimate. Considering that the XC40 Recharge's Core and Plus trims are eligible for the $5k Canadian federal rebate, and the two cars are priced the same for each trim, I expect the C40 will also qualify for the rebate for the Core and Plus trims. Frustratingly, adaptive cruise control is only available in Ultimate trim (for both cars). Consider the Core trims with the Climate Package and metallic paint, about $63k before tax and the rebate. Note the C40 gets a non-opening sunroof in all trims whereas the XC40 Recharge gets a steel roof in the Core trim and an opening sunroof with retractable shade with the two higher trims. Apple CarPlay was included in an over-the-air software update (v2.2 ) in July, 2022.

i just rewatched the CX40 recharge video you guys made last year, during the comparison with other vehicles, the model y was the first competitor at 70K!! holllyyyyyyyy 12k difference in one year, sticking with my ioniq 5

[@aic0809]

Zach’s rant about the lack of AM radio and what that means for Apple CarPlay made me laugh out loud! He was so indignant! 😂 Rightly so, but still, lol!!

[@bcluett1697]

Maybe it's a euro thing where they don't use AM like North America does for emergency updates. Here in Newfoundland most of the bad weather reports and emergency news is all on AM in most locations. I like that it boils down to sports talk for Zack though lol!

[@aic0809]

@@bcluett1697 Lol, yeah, the fact that his frustration was due to not being able to listen to the local sports channel tickled me! That being said, the absence of AM radio is kind of weird. In no small part due to Zach and Andrea (I continue to be grateful to them, 8 months later!) I purchased the gas version of the 2022 XC40. I have AM radio and live in the US. I wonder why the C40 doesn’t have it? I wonder if it’s a quirk of it being the first model year for this vehicle?

[@kellingtonlink956]

My opinion? The tyres are too big (18”s would have looked my balanced) and I think the front end could have been styled… better?… differently?… something is not quite as… cohesive(?) style-wise. Aside from that, it looks like an excellent product. But because of it’s price…. I’d recommend to anyone to seriously consider going to an Audi dealership. They’ve hit a home run in this category. Thanks for the video.

[@vikramdias5496]

Being a C40 owner since January of 2022, I have 7 months of EV driving experience and hope to continue and keep this fine EV for years to come. 1. Gush at the Fjord Blue color and my next favorite being Fusion Red.🔥 2. The drive is beyond smooth, quiet, fun and absolutely fast (Dual Motor; 408 HP, 78 KWH battery).💥 3. Apple CarPlay through software update 2.2 works really well, albeit a few issues here and there. Always unplug your phone after you finish driving.☝ 4. The space for my 6’1” tall son and 5’7” daughter in the back is absolutely right. Now I don’t feel the need to have a 7 seater SUV like an XC90.😇 5. I am 6’ tall and could slightly afford to have a little more headroom, but when I get inside the car, I feel like I am getting ready to hit a race car rally! 🙂. 7. Time and time again I feel I lacked space in the trunk, but I am proven wrong because I can finish three grocery runs (today: Costco, Kroger and a local grocery outlet for special items). I can stash into my second row seats as well as pack up my cargo hold with no issues. 8. The Harmon Kardon system is top notch, much better than my 13 speaker Bose 305W surround sound in my XC90. Nicely plays Apple iTunes, Spotify and Sirius XM. I have a broad variety of music channels and taste that runs in my family and I can cater to all of them. 9. Super pleased with my Volvo dealership and their ability to deliver the C40 and get it ready within 4 hours for me to take home was beyond thrilling. Loved 🥰 the Volvo hospitality! 10. August 2022- getting a new windshield replaced due to a lack of workmanship from TN Tint when fixing my windshield tintstrip. It resulted in two error messages on collision and driver safety. Part was ordered and I hope to get it fixed within a week. No issues driving however! NEVER FIX A Windshield Tint strip, due to to the defogger/heater elements right in the center of the windscreen. 11. Getting ready to do a trip check end of August for a road trip to Dallas on earth September! 12. Family, friends and loved ones love the color and the ride so far. Nothing but compliments and proudly the only C40 running in a major southern metro! I haven’t see a single C40 in cities like Austin, Atlanta, Philly, Wichita, Orlando, Tampa, Bradenton, Sarasota, Longboat Key, St Petersburg, Nashville through my spring and summer travels! Sexy, Sophisticated, Suave, thrilling, beautiful and a well designed coupe SUV for a family that

[@ChuckMahon]

I just rented the Volvo C40 Recharge for a week over the Thanksgiving holiday. Zach and Andrea's review is spot on I think. The car received a over-the-air software update while I rented it. The infotainment and nav system is indeed clunky. Turning radius is also really unimpressive - a surprising flaw. The driving experience otherwise is amazing! It is a beautiful styled car - but it just cannot compete with a RWD Model Y at $43K USD. Still - it will be interesting to watch where Volvo goes with this platform. I own a Tesla Model 3 RWD (2023) and the logistics of DC fast charging the Volvo is a real challenge compared to Tesla. The included Level 1/2 charger and cable are twice as heavy as the Tesla Mobile Charger.

[@michaelsylvester7272]

I see a lot of blue!! Anyways great review

[@islandon22]

My nephew drives the Tesla Y and my best friend's wife has this model Volvo. My nephew thinks the Tesla is just OK, but isn't impressed by its quality, or value. On the other hand, the Volvo is loved by my friend's wife. Personally, I agree once again with both of you, both blow in the VALUE department. And that's what drives me as a consumer. 👎

[@mowcowbell]

Living in the USA, I haven't bothered to tune in an AM radio station in 40 years. Plenty of Sports Talk stations on the FM band.

[@JimAllder11]

Zack always looking for an opportunity to disparage Volvo over that AM radio issue in every Volvo related video, is steadfastly hilarious. First the plug-in hybrid option is virtue signaling, and now the Rainbow Room at the Howard Johnson's want their carpet back. Always more entertainment than I deserve. Love you both, never change.

[@Colin623]

You make some good points, but you didn't explain that the C40 has off road capability, which it is particularly good at as standard, how does that compare to the Tesla, Cadillac and others then ? it's horses for courses, you have take all aspects into consideration when testing a car, not just the ones that are important to you two only, but otherwise a good video

[@ghenry85]

So what is the best "value" electic car then? So good range, good driving experience, big enough to handle family duty, and a price tag that isn't out of reach for the average family. I don't think I've seen you call a car a miss before(it is deserved in this case).

[@gregkramer5588]

The Ioniq 5 is very tough to beat in its range. For true value with a lower price the Bolt is the clear leader.

[@Jorge_Magallon]

I like the blue interior. Seems like a terrible deal in Canada compared to the XC40.

Can you get the AM stations via HD FM radio? That is the workaround I have used in Tesla cars (also no AM).

Zach is totally right on EV's MSRP, it is not affordable to many families wanting to save gas money. PHEV and HEV are still a better bargain at this moment.....my 0.02.

[@gregkramer5588]

It is for many but if you do drive enough the EV can make sense. Think 100 miles a day driving. In this case the EV could save $2k a year.

[@ColJonSquall1]

Well it took them a whole year to get Apple Carplay in the Polestar 2, as they told first reviewers, Winter 2021, then Spring 2022 and many hadn't seen it in May of 2022, only last month did it arrive. I wish I could get a Polestar 2, but with the government rebate increase, MSRP went up by a few thousand too. We need all these car companies kneecapped metaphorically to get them to cut costs so the rest of us can afford EVs.

Great advice, fully agree. I wanted to buy the Volvo too, and we're perfect customers for them: two ten year olds, dog and cat, upper middle class, eco concerned, like wagons, own a Tesla 3 LR AWD and want to change.

Fabulous review! We test drove the XC40 before they lowered the price to qualify for the federal rebate and rejected it based on that fact. We purchased the 2022 Lexus UX250h hybrid and absolutely love it!

[@rvtBC]

Disappointed to hear it doesn’t hit the mark in enough areas (for the price). I was hopeful this might be a real contender to get me to take the EV plunge (if it was $10k cheaper then I’m in). Spot on about EVs being too high priced. Until EVs’ prices come down some more, offer decent range w/ faster charge times (Genesis, Kia, Hyundai are getting there), while still having some fun appeal, I’ll just have to keep waiting. The lease on my 2019 GTI is coming up; guess I’ll just buy it out as the best option.

The thing that bugs me with these vehicles is the rebates. In the United States you can still qualify for $7500 rebate. If you can buy a $60,000 car you do not need a $7500 rebate. It’s just BS. It’s always great to see how our tax dollars are being spent

[@acchaladka]

Think about it: how many additional cars and tax value is created through the higher sales numbers across several new brands and companies? More interesting, how many health care dollars does the upgraded safety, and the lack of fossil fuels save over the lifetime of this car compared to even a three year old car? (Hint, a LOT). It is worth it to the taxpayer except whoops, the US government doesn't pay any health care for regular people, like other countries. So, the Canadian and other G20 countries' subsidy is worth it at least.

[@mijas-rus2715]

My short list was Audi Q4, Volvo XC40, Volvo C40 and Polestar 2. Audi Q4 is a bit slow for an EV. C40 - I don't see a point, cause XC40 has the same characteristics and more room. C40 is lacking room in the back seats - the same as Polestar 2, but Polestar 2 is a better car - faster, more range, less expensive (qualifies for rebate), and better Android Automotive interface. So, I see either XC40 if you need room, or Polestar 2 if you want a better driving experience.

feel sorry for electric car drivers and future owners. They will simply have to learn the hard way .. as I did. These things are a huge hassle, all those lost hours sitting in those charging stations, huge anxiety, plus a outrageous expense in the long run. Good luck trying to sell a used Electric car with wore out battery modules. You'll find out nobody wants to pay the ridiculous price of batteries ... Batteries are very ... very expensive to replace ( thousands and thousands of dollars) ... and make no mistake, you will be replacing them. These batteries are highly toxic to our environment, with a high potential for disaster to our surroundings. DON'T FOOL YOURSELF and CERTAINLY, DON'T LISTEN TO A SALESMAN , ...

Not sure why range is still an 'important' issue anymore or being discussed. All modern EVs can do at least 400km. Very few drives more 400km on one day, and if one charges every night, the range is a moot point. The range only matters on the first leg of a road trip, after that, it won't matter anymore cause it's all about the charging speed and the spread of charging stations, how quickly can one top up the car to 80% and start the next leg to the next charging spot, and those segments are definitely shorter than 400km. Faster charging speed takes precedent to total range for sure.

Overpriced and under loaded! Very low range, so not even consider it!
