But our favourite has to be the presence of Google Maps. So you can download Spotify and use it right off the infotainment system to play your favourite songs. It gets five years of independent internet data and you can access Google’s Play Store for whatever app you may wish to download. This effectively makes the screen a smartphone in itself, packing all the apps and functions you’re ever gonna want and need, negating the hassle of connecting your phone to access those same features. It is slightly tilted towards the driver, so accessing it makes it just a tad easier, but the real party trick is the inbuilt Google operating system. The 9-inch portrait-style touchscreen acts as the heart of all infotainment and even comfort needs (AC control) inside the C40 Recharge. And then there’s the actual features list, because let’s face it, we all love a chunky list of creature comforts. The tiny attention to details like the knurled finish on the Play/Pause button, metallic finish for the sleek AC vents, and the tiny Swedish flags – all work in conjunction to elevate the cabin experience. The former is minimalistically styled with solid quality and blends functionality and practicality. Yes, the use of vegan and eco-friendly materials is a thoughtful touch but wait till you get a load of the cabin layout and the corresponding list of features. Thoughtful indeed and we are all game to seeing it in more cars in the future. For instance, a single carpet is made from recycling 71 bottles - plastic waste turned into great use. In fact, Volvo has gone the extra mile and taken matters of recycling into its own hands (or rather cars) with use of partially recycled upholsteries and carpets that make use of PET bottles, wine-bottle corks and naturally fallen trees/branches. Instead, the whole cabin of the C40 Recharge has been crafted without any use of leather. You know how luxury car makers take pride in making excessive use of leather, wood and what not in the brochure? All of that so-called ‘premiumness’ comes at an immediate cost paid by animals and a progressive cost that we pay by harming natural resources. Irrespective of the 'opposites attract' theory working or not, the C40 Recharge is undoubtedly a head turner, in the most subtle, Volvo way possible. Guess the theory of opposites attracting and working (rather well in this case) together stands true, at least in this case.įun fact: The pixel lights featuring the signature Thor’s hammer design makes use of 84 pixels in each unit, ensuring that you don’t blind traffic ahead of you with its adjustable changing beam, while lighting up the road effectively as well. The light show at the rear works well with the bold daytime running light pattern that the pixel-LED headlights sport up front. That comes in the form of the cool waterfall-like insignia on the C-shaped taillights that calls you out with its cool animation when you lock/unlock the car. Those are complemented by another spoiler, which is mounted on the tailgate this time around, but that isn’t even the neatest trick here. In the C40’s case, it might be the sense of coherence that you get as the roofline seamlessly fuses into the windscreen with two tiny spoiler spats marking the beginning of the raked windscreen. In fact, it works in the favor of the C40 as it blends the best of two worlds – the flat and squared-off nose with the sloping roofline, considering the SUV itself was a rather handsome offering to begin with.īut there’s just something about a sloping roofline that immediately demands for your attention – allures and captivates you – unlike a traditionally shaped roof. Yes, the C40 is essentially a XC40 Recharge, but with a sportier coupe-ish roofline.
