Did you know that in 2023, the Tesla Model Y and the Tesla Model 3 were the two best-selling electric cars in Canada (Model Y: 29,582 units; Model 3: 29,122 units)? When it comes to electric vehicles, there's no denying that Tesla has made a name for itself in Quebec. However, not everyone who wants to drive an electric car wants to do so with the American brand. With this in mind, Volvo has...

Since the electrification of the Volvo XC40 2023, the Swedish brand has been constantly updating its compact SUV to meet the new demands of its drivers.
For 2024, the Volvo XC40 Recharge features the same design and safety technologies, but with the addition of a longer-range battery and a new transmission.
We explain it all in this article!
Electric powertrains available on the 2024 Volvo XC40
Driving an electric vehicle is something more and more Quebec drivers want to do, but with distances exceeding hundreds of kilometers between cities, this choice can hold back some families who regularly go on vacation - especially if they don't have an electric charging station at their disposal.
So, for 2024, the Swedish brand has focused its attention on battery range. Thanks to an update, buyers of an electric XC40 will benefit from an additional 20% range, or 409 km on a full charge cycle for the 4-wheel drive version.
The big news for 2024 is the arrival of rear-wheel drive (2WD only). This version offers a much greater range. In fact, the 2-wheel drive version (single electric motor) is claimed to have a total range of 472 KM.
Availability of the Volvo XC40 Recharge 2024
For the 2023 model year, stocks of the Volvo XC40 Recharge were low. As a result, not all demand for the compact electric SUV could be met.
For 2024, more units will be available, including Core versions.
Delivery in autumn 2023
The first deliveries of these models will take place in autumn 2023 for the Plus and Ultimate versions. Core versions may take a little longer.
How much does the Volvo XC40 Recharge cost?
For the 2-wheel drive version (single electric motor):
- Core: 59 950$
- Plus: 68 000$
- Ultimate: 72 250$
In the case of 4-wheel drive (two electric motors):
- Core: 63 500$
- Plus: 70 500$
- Ultimate: 74 750$
To all these prices must be added $2,620 for shipping and preparation, as well as $122 in taxes for air conditioning and tires.
Will it be eligible for government rebates?
Yes, like previous versions, the Volvo XC40 Recharge 2024 should be eligible for the following rebates:
- 5,000 from the federal government through the "Roulez vert" program
- 7,000 from the provincial government through the iVZE program
That's a total rebate of $12,000 for anyone living in the province of Quebec. As a reminder, this discount is applied after taxes.
