Volvo XC40 EV to debut this year, report says
https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/volvo-xc40-ev-debut-this-year-report/
Beyond that confirmation, details are scant. The XC40 entered production in late 2017, so a debut later this year might come alongside a mild refresh that updates the vehicle's styling or packaging. There's also no additional information about the electric XC40's powertrain at the time of writing, so any estimates about range or performance would be shots in the dark.
From a product standpoint, the XC40 is a wise car to electrify first. ANE points out that the XC40 is Volvo's second-most popular model after the XC60, and its compact footprint means it could add even more appeal to urbanites looking to hop on the electrification bandwagon.
