There are enormous responsibilities that come with high power. The Volvo C40 Recharge EV has been awarded a 5-star safety rating by Euro NCAP


Environmental sustainability is real. We see it in the rapid weather changes and high levels of pollution around the world. We, too, need conscious steps in our daily lives. This includes choosing reusable cups at your favorite coffee shop, recycling old glass bottles, and using compact fluorescent lights at home. The automotive industry is also serious about improving its green footprint. That’s why we’re keeping an eye on Volvo’s upcoming C40 Recharge EV, which will be unveiled on June 14th. It will be the second all-electric vehicle in India by the Scandinavian company.

Here’s what to expect from the upcoming Volvo C40 Recharge:
