2024 Volvo C40 And XC40 Recharge Get Serious Upgrades At Minimal Costs
Volvo has finally announced complete pricing for the 2024 model year lineup in the United States, including the upgraded electric Volvo C40 Recharge and Volvo XC40 Recharge models. As we know, the new all-electric C40 and XC40 are significantly improved and offer a far better EPA range of up to almost 300 miles. And their prices aren’t that different from before.
The 2024 Volvo C40 Recharge, with an all-new rear-wheel drive powertrain, starts at an MSRP of $53,600 and is rated at 297 miles of EPA range, using an all-new 82-kilowatt-hour battery. The all-wheel drive version costs $1,750 more. At $55,350, it is basically on par with the 2023 model year AWD version. The EPA range of that car is now 257 miles, compared to 226 miles previously. Given this range increase for under two grand, plus an entirely new RWD version for even less with some very respectable range, and it’s safe to say the Volvo C40 Recharge is a better deal than ever.
In the case of the 2024 Volvo XC40 Recharge, the RWD version starts at an MSRP of $52,450, while the AWD version starts at $54,200 ($650 more than the 2023MY version). In this case, the destination charge is slightly higher ($1,195, compared to $1,095 previously and to the C40.) Moreover, Volvo notes that this marks return of a rear-wheel drive powertrain to its lineup after 25 years.

Both models are imported, so they do not qualify for the $7,500 federal tax credit under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA). However, there is a possibility that the incentive will be available through leasing.
