Volvo has silently discontinued the petrol variant of the XC40 in India. The SUV is now only available in pure EV form.<\/p>\n
The XC40 facelift was launched in India in September last year. It was available with a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine paired with a 48V mild-hybrid system. This engine produced 197 BHP and 300 Nm and came with an 8-speed automatic transmission.<\/p>\n
There had been reports indicating that Volvo was planning to discontinue the petrol version, following the positive response it received for the XC40 Recharge in India.<\/p>\n
The XC40 Recharge uses two electric motors that generate 402 BHP and 660 Nm, allowing the car to accelerate from 0-100 km\/h in 4.9 seconds. The EV is powered by a 79 kWh battery pack that offers a claimed maximum range of 418 km. Volvo says that the battery pack can be recharged from 10% to 80% in 28 minutes using a fast charger.<\/p>\n
