Volvo XC40 Recharge Road Trip to Northern Michigan, Electrify America Success!

My wife and I road trip with our baby, cat and doggo up to Northport, Michigan in our XC40 recharge! It ended being close to 400 miles and 2 charge stops.
We used Electrify America for both stops and had no issues. Both stops the chargers initiated and ramped up to max speed quickly!

What a fun car trip!

Took a little longer than a gas road trip, but it was fun! The way back we took a slightly different route and went to a cool charger in Saugatuck. Stay tuned for part 2!

What year is your XC40 Recharge? I like this car a lot so thanks for sharing this video.

It's a 2023 ultimate trim. I've got an in depth review of the car too if you want more details, it's a great car! 2024 models have better range and charging, but I got a good deal on it. Range is good enough anyway, just drove it down to Florida a couple weeks ago!

Jesus - you're not wrong it's not the most efficient car, I know it's a completely different animal but my model 3 averages (20-21kwh/100) on the freeway from Sydney to Melbourne (c.600miles) at an average 62-65mph my first stop is 397km / 247mi from my house and I think the lowest I have arrived with is 11 or 12% remaining in rainy 6-8C (42-46F) weather / my lifetime efficiency is 17.5kwh/100. I don't think I could live with that sort of real world range and efficiency.

Yea, hard to beat the model 3 for efficiency! The comfort and build quality is top notch though and for daily driving around town it’s amazing. Hoping to get an ev9 or maybe an ex90 in the future.
