No matter the trim you select, you'll enjoy savings at the pump and a spacious SUV interior.

The 2023 Volvo C40 Recharge is not the only all-electric SUV on the market. As we shall see, however, it is perhaps the most compelling model available.

All three of these vehicles bring something to the table but generally fail to compete with the Volvo C40 Recharge on the whole. The 2023 Volvo C40 Recharge is stylish, muscular, and packed with cutting-edge features. That's a high bar for the competition to clear. You'll find a more detailed comparison below.

Volvo C40 Recharge vs. the Competition

As we noted at the top of this page, the Volvo C40 Recharge is not the only all-electric SUV on the market. One competitor is the Audi e-tron. It uses a battery pack and a pair of all-electric motors, a configuration that outputs 355 horsepower. The vehicle is rated to get 222 miles of range on a single charge by the EPA.⁴ Both of these numbers lose out to the Volvo C40 Recharge.

The next model we will consider is the Volkswagen ID.4. It is available with a single-motor rear-wheel drive powertrain and a dual-motor all-wheel drive setup – neither of which makes more than 300 horsepower. The vehicle comes with a nice array of standard safety technologies but is much less fun to drive than the Volvo C40 Recharge. This round goes to the Volvo SUV, too.

The final vehicle on our list is the Ford Mustang Mach-E. It has a configuration available that makes 480 horsepower, but this setup costs tens of thousands of dollars more than the base model of the Volvo C40 Recharge. Its interior is nice but no nicer than the luxury cabin of the Volvo SUV. The Volvo C40 Recharge offers the best blend of power, luxury, and style.
