<p>The Toyota Vellfire has long been the go-to luxury MPV, often equipped with the finest features the segment has to offer. It’s the preferred choice of the elite, offering comfort and sophistication in equal measure. Add to that the renowned reliability of the Toyota brand, and the Vellfire becomes an even more compelling package.
    However, there’s now a Korean challenger poised to disrupt the status quo of this Japanese giant. The Kia Carnival, which costs nearly half as much as the Vellfire, offers three rows of seating and an impressive array of features.</p>
<p><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8gQ18X3JngU?si=nPwpF27yOkH92llP" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen=""></iframe><br></p>
<p>So, the question is – does the Vellfire really offer twice the luxury, features, and space to justify its price tag over the Carnival?</p>






<h2>Toyota Vellfire vs Kia Carnival: Size Comparison</h2>

<p>Despite being the more affordable of the two, the Carnival has a larger footprint. It’s not only longer and wider but also has a longer wheelbase. This translates to more boot space when all three rows of seats are in use. However, the Vellfire stands taller, offering more headroom – something that taller people will particularly appreciate. Its height, combined with an ornate chrome grille, gives the Vellfire a more imposing presence. In contrast, the Carnival features a longer bonnet and more flowing curves, which, in my opinion, make it the better-looking vehicle of the two. Likewise, while the Vellfire rides on 19-inch alloys compared to the Carnival’s 18-inch wheels, I prefer the darker, more stylish design of the latter.</p>

<h2>Toyota Vellfire vs Kia Carnival: Interior Space</h2>

<p>Both vehicles we tested featured a six-seater configuration. While the captain seats in the Carnival are quite comfortable and offer Ottoman support, adjusting them can be cumbersome. You have to manually slide the seat forward or backwards to create legroom, and to fully recline the seat, you must first pull a tab on the side and shift the entire seat inward.</p>
<p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/06/Kia-Carnival-Controls-1749469618330.webp" alt="Kia Carnival-Controls.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>
<p>The Vellfire, on the other hand, offers a far more seamless experience. Its seats rival those of a business-class airliner, with all adjustments available at the press of a button. The headroom on offer here is also noticeably better. That said, it’s impressive that the Carnival, despite costing half as much, still offers heated and ventilated second-row seats. However, the Vellfire offers even more luxury features, such as memory and massage function, and a pair of smartphone-like touch devices that control seat positioning, AC, lighting, and more. Even the sunblinds in the Vellfire are powered and cover the full window, unlike the manual blinds in the Carnival.</p>

<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/06/Toyota-Vellfire-Rear-Seat-Space-1749469703821.webp" alt="Toyota Vellfire-Rear-Seat-Space.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
</div>

<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

    <br>
</div>

<p>Oddly, in the Carnival, the second-row AC controls are placed on the roof panel toward the right side, making them a bit hard to reach. The approach to the sunroof differs significantly between the two. The Carnival features conventional dual sunroof panels, both of which can be opened, enhancing the sense of space and airiness in the cabin. In contrast, the Vellfire opts for two slimmer, fixed glass panels. While this design lends a more refined and upscale appearance and also discourages the unsafe habit of sticking one’s head out of a moving vehicle, I find that the Carnival’s traditional sunroof setup contributes more to an open, spacious feel inside the cabin.</p>

<h2>No Child’s Play</h2>

<p>Move to the third row, and the Vellfire once again offers a more comfortable experience. By sacrificing some boot space, it provides ample legroom, even for passengers up to 6 feet tall. While under-thigh support is lacking in both vehicles, the Vellfire’s third row is genuinely usable for longer journeys. These seats can also be slid forward or backwards to further optimise space.</p><p><strong>Also Read:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/toyota-vellfire-review-when-space-is-luxury-120725/" target="_blank">Toyota Vellfire Review: When Space is Luxury</a></p>





<p>Accessing the third row is easier in the Vellfire as well. A simple pull of a tab slides the second-row seat forward, allowing for an easy ingress. Doing the same in the Carnival requires a bit more effort – you first need to shift the second-row seats outward, then carefully squeeze through the gap between them, which can be a challenge even for a reasonably fit adult. That said, both vehicles offer conveniences like AC vents, USB-C charging ports, and cup holders in the.</p>

<h2>Features Galore</h2>

<p>As one might expect, the Vellfire’s higher price tag brings with it a clear advantage in terms of features. It has a larger 14-inch touchscreen infotainment system compared to the Carnival’s 12.3-inch unit. Additionally, the Vellfire offers an extra roof-mounted screen for second-row passengers, enhancing the rear-seat experience.</p>
<p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/06/Kia-Carnival-View-Of-Steering-Console-And-Instrumentation-1749469629211.webp" alt="Kia Carnival-View-Of-Steering-Console-And-Instrumentation.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>
<p>Both vehicles come equipped with premium sound systems, but the Vellfire’s 15-speaker JBL setup delivers noticeably richer tone and clarity than the Carnival’s 12-speaker Bose system. The Vellfire also includes thoughtful touches like retractable tray tables built into the captain seats, complete with integrated vanity mirrors. Then there are a number of ways to open and close the Vellfire’s powered sliding doors, which is rather cool. You can do it via the handle on the door itself, buttons on the roof, or buttons next to the driver.</p>
<p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/06/Toyota-Vellfire-Interior-1749469788313.webp" alt="Toyota Vellfire-Interior.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>





<p>That said, the Carnival has some clever tricks of its own. The driver’s seat offers a 14-way power adjustment, while the Vellfire has an 8-way setup. The Carnival also features a more intuitive third-row stowage system – a single lever collapses the seats into the boot cavity – than the Vellfire’s cumbersome system, which involves straps and sideways lifting of the seats. While the Vellfire wins on screen size, the Carnival’s infotainment interface is arguably more user-friendly and responsive. And in a surprising twist, the Carnival comes with eight airbags, compared to just six in the Vellfire.</p>

<h2>Getting Down to Business</h2>

<p>The Carnival and Vellfire take very different approaches to propulsion. The Carnival is powered by a 2.2-litre diesel engine, while the Vellfire employs a 2.5-litre petrol-hybrid setup. Both deliver 190bhp, but the Carnival, being a diesel, produces much more torque. Each vehicle strikes its own balance between power and efficiency, but the driving experience they offer couldn’t be more different.</p>

<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/06/Kia-Carnival-Toyota-Vellfire-side-profile-dynamic-1749469682485.webp" alt="Kia Carnival-Toyota Vellfire-side-profile-dynamic.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
</div>

<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

    &nbsp;<br></div>

<p>The Vellfire is notably more refined in its operation, delivering power in a smooth and linear fashion. However, its tall profile and softly tuned suspension result in noticeable body roll, especially around corners. The Carnival, by contrast, feels more responsive and eager at low speeds. Its lower centre of gravity and firmer suspension tuning lend it the driving dynamics that make it feel more like a long sedan rather than a lazy MPV. In terms of ride quality, both vehicles are very comfortable, but the Vellfire edges ahead with a plusher, more luxurious feel. It glides over potholes almost effortlessly, keeping occupants isolated from road imperfections in a near-magical manner.</p>

Its petrol engine runs quieter than the Carnival’s diesel, and its overall cabin insulation is also superior. Aside from the occasional CVT groan under hard acceleration, the Vellfire remains impressively quiet. Its hybrid system also allows for short bursts of electric-only driving, adding to the calm, EV-like silent experience.</p>

<h2>Toyota Vellfire vs Kia Carnival: Verdict</h2>

<p>So, does the Vellfire offer twice the experience of the Carnival? Absolutely not. But it’s important to understand that around the ₹1 crore mark, you begin to hit diminishing returns, regardless of the segment. At ₹63.91 lakh (ex-showroom), the Carnival is a very well-rounded people mover. It offers strong driving dynamics and exceptional value for money, making it the more sensible choice for most buyers.</p>
<p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/06/Kia-Carnival-Toyota-Vellfire-Rear-Three-Quarter-1749469603363.webp" alt="Kia Carnival-Toyota Vellfire-Rear-Three-Quarter.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>

<p>That said, if you have the budget to spare, the Vellfire is a compelling upgrade. With prices starting at ₹1.22 crore and going up to ₹1.33 crore for the VIP variant we tested, it’s far from an affordable option. However, that premium buys you an undeniably elevated experience – a quieter, more refined ride, more space and greater comfort in all three rows, and a cabin that exudes luxury.</p>

<p>While the Carnival is ideally suited for families looking for practicality and comfort, the Vellfire makes more sense for businesses that want to transport high-profile clients in style and opulence.</p>

Toyota Vellfire vs Kia Carnival Comparison: Luxury MPV Battle!

It’s time for a titanic showdown between two luxury MPVs - the Toyota Vellfire and the Kia Carnival. Can the Carnival dethrone the Vellfire as the go-to choice for comfortable travels?

<p> The world of motorcycles is a fascinating one. There are so many kinds of it that there’s one to suit everyone’s need, yet, motorcyclists can’t have enough. In this world, there’s one motorcycle manufacturer that firmly holds its own – Harley-Davidson. Over the years, even the mighty HD has dared to cross boundaries and experimented with different kinds of formats. However, the Harley-Davidson Breakout is a stark reminder of their strengths and absolute mastery of the cruiser motorcycle format. But before we dig into how the motorcycle is on different parameters, it is important to understand what it is in the first place.</p><h2>Harley-Davidson Breakout Review: What is it? </h2><p>Loosely, a cruiser motorcycle. You won’t be wrong if you call it so, but if you want to be specific, it is a chopper. And this distinction is of utmost importance for you to truly understand the Breakout and judge it fairly. You see, the best way to judge a bike is to start with its intent. Adventure motorcycles are meant to take the path less travelled, sportbikes are to chase the ten-tenths around a racetrack and cruisers, in the larger sense, are meant to munch miles with ease, highways being their preferred playing ground. Choppers, on the other hand, have one purpose – to make an impression. So, if I were to sum up the Breakout based on things like cornering abilities, touring capabilities and so on, it would be unfair on the motorcycle.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
      <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/Harley-davidson-breakout-6-1747466775630.webp" alt="Harley-Davidson Breakout" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
    </div>
  <p>The rise of choppers and the popularity of the Harley-Davidson culture go almost hand-in-hand. A huge fat rear tyre, rigid frame and a long raked out front end is the quintessential image of an American Badass on two wheels. Of course, this format takes us into the world of fat wheel custom choppers and eye-watering prices, but that’s a story for a different day. This is the early 2000s we are talking about, and towards the end of the decade, Harley would come out with the Rocker C – their take on what a chopper should be like, practically inventing the ‘factory chopper’ genre. It came with a funky rider seat which could be folded out to ‘unwrap’ the rear seat! Surely, not many would remember that, but it’s worth looking up.</p><p>It was good, but it was Harley’s second attempt that gave us one of the most popular fat wheel factory choppers of all time – the Breakout. Fast forward to today, and the Breakout sticks to that design theme and continues the legacy.</p><h2>Harley-Davidson Breakout Review:&nbsp;Great Story, but how is it today?</h2><p>Let’s start with the fat rear tyre, perhaps the biggest draw of this motorcycle. It’s a full 240-section unit, wider than even the fanciest cars or SUVs you can think of! Next is the insane 1,923cc, 45-degree V-Twin air- and oil-cooled engine! In full display with exquisite attention to detail, no less. Add to that a slim front-end design, a massive 34-degree rake, shotgun exhausts, a 2.3-metre length and over 300kg of weight (in running order) – you get the idea. Thankfully, it has a decently sized 18.9-litre fuel tank – unlike the puny tanks in custom choppers. It’s a motorcycle that will appeal to the purists in every sense.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
      <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/Harley-davidson-breakout-11-1747466790380.webp" alt="Harley davidson breakout " style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
    </div>
  <p>At a standstill, it looks like a million dollars. But when on the move, it is every bit a typical Harley – butter smooth drivetrain, oodles of torque at the slightest twist of the throttle and that addictive, dominating riding stance that makes you feel like the king of the road. For perspective, it makes a mind-bending 168Nm of torque, and surprisingly, Harley even quotes the horsepower numbers for this one at 100bhp. You sit with your feet stretched out with a little bit of reach to the almost flat handlebar. Its rip-it-and-grip-it ride experience is equal parts intimidating and utterly, utterly addictive. The almost 1.7-metre-long wheelbase and the fat rubber means the motorcycle is slow to turn, and u-turns will have to be planned well in advance. But a bike that gives a lack of confidence it is not, and the ride quality is surprisingly good!</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
      <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/Harley-davidson-breakout-12-1747466794737.webp" alt="Harley-Davidson Breakout Seat" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></div><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">The clever bit done by Harley is that the monoshock rear suspension is hidden under the seat, giving the motorcycle a hard tail look. I have to be honest, this Softail chassis has been around since the late 2010s, but still is every bit modern and always leaves me surprised with just how it copes  even on poorly surfaced roads. It’s no ADV, obviously, but way more capable than you would expect from a motorcycle of this appearance. The only thing that was a bit bothersome was the protruding air intake. As good as it looks, it comes in the way of using the rear brake. Speaking of which, on the safety tech front, you have Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS) and Traction Control System (TCS)… and that’s all. I love it!</div>
  <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
      <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/Harley-davidson-breakout-14-1747466804890.webp" alt="Harley-Davidson Breakout Speedometer" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
    </div>
  <p>On the features front, you have a minuscule 2.14 inch (yes, you read that right) LCD instrument cluster which gives you bare-minimum information at a time, but the complete set so long as you are willing to toggle through the menu set.</p><h2>Harley-Davidson Breakout Review: Verdict</h2><p>And well, that’s about it. The motorcycle is fairly simple and a refreshing throwback to what motorcycles are all about – the experience, the image and the personality that comes with it. Let’s face it, the experience of motorcycling is subjective and very thematic too, if I may say so. Off-road riders, enduro riders, supermoto riders, track riders, long-distance haulers… the list can go on. If you judge the Breakout based on its specifications, features and brochures,&nbsp; you’ll be committing a grave mistake. But if you kick it old school and go for a test ride, that is when you will  appreciate what the motorcycle has to offer.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
      <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/Harley-davidson-breakout-5-1747466765962.webp" alt="Harley-Davidson Breakout Rear" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
    </div>
  <p>It has everything that you would want from a bike like this. An engine called Milwaukee-Eight 117, massive displacement of 1,923cc (litre-class cylinders, almost), an air intake called ‘Heavy Breather’ and tyres that are called ‘Scorchers.’ It even has the eye-watering price tag and an unmistakable road presence! The motorcycle may not do a lot of things and could be seen as ‘too simple,’ perhaps. But it leaves you with a lasting memory. So, let’s play some Rock n’ Roll and take in the view with bikes like these while we can, before the ugly ADVs take over completely. Motorcycling is subjective, remember?</p><p>[tabs]</p>

Harley-Davidson Breakout Review: Fantastic, But Set Your Expectations Right

There’s nothing quite like the Harley-Davidson Breakout that says you’ve ‘arrived.’ It's every bit a factory chopper motorcycle - a raked out front end, long, low, a fat rear tyre and a price tag that separates you from the rest.

<p>Ever since the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mg/windsor-ev/">MG Windsor EV</a> was launched in India, it has been the centre of attention. It brought with it a unique design, an exhaustive list of features, innovative methods of buying a car, like Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS), and all of it came with a price tag that positioned it as the perfect choice of car to buy under Rs 20 lakh in India. It wasn’t a surprise that the Windsor won the prestigious ‘Best of 2024’ at the autoX Awards and that it would become the best-selling EV in India for seven consecutive months! Now, MG aims to take it up a notch with the new ‘Pro’ variant of the Windsor EV. We drive it in the jaw-dropping beauty of Shillong and find out what it’s all about.</p><h2>MG Windsor EV Pro Review: What’s Different? <br></h2><p>The first thing I  want to mention is the price, as it will give you an idea of  how popular this car is. <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/mg-windsor-ev-pro-launched-at-rs-1749-lakh-gets-bigger-battery-and-more-features-120622/" target="_blank">JSW MG Motor India had launched the Windsor EV Pro</a> at an introductory price tag of Rs 17.5 lakh (ex-showroom), which was to be valid for the first 8,000 customers, and mind you, 8,000 units in the world of EVs is a big number. Surprisingly, the introductory price had to end the next day as the <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/mg-windsor-ev-pro-introductory-prices-end-heres-what-youll-pay-now-120661/" target="_blank">bookings crossed the 8,000 mark within 24 hours</a>! So now, the price is up by Rs 60,000, and the car costs Rs 18.10 lakh outright and Rs 13.10 lakh + Rs 4.5/km as part of the BaaS scheme.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

    </div>
  <p>What you get for this price tag is, honestly, not a very big change. It is still a substantial one, however, as it brings a marked improvement in your everyday usage experience. The big change is the larger battery pack that the Pro variant gets – now a 52.9kWh LFP unit, as opposed to the 38kWh LFP unit in the ‘regular’ Windsor EV variants. As a result, the claimed range has gone up from 332km to an impressive 449km per charge. As per MG, the car takes about 9.5 hours to fully top up with a 7.4kW AC charger and about 50 minutes  from 20 to 8 per cent with a 60kW DC fast charger. Since this was just a first drive, we could not perform a range test as per our standards. </p><p><strong>Also Read:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/mg-windsor-ev-excite-exclusive-essence-and-essence-pro-variants-explained-120651/" target="_blank">MG Windsor EV Excite, Exclusive, Essence and Essence Pro Variants Explained</a></p><p>However, given our earlier experience with the non-Pro version of the car, we believe that the Pro should easily cross the 350km per charge mark in real-world conditions. Interestingly, MG is offering a lifetime warranty on the battery, but do note that it is only applicable for the first owner.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/1746791132970-34l0-MG-Windsor-EV-Pro-Front.webp" alt="MG Windsor EV Pro Front" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
    </p>
  <p>The other big additions are the inclusion of level 2 ADAS features, a powered tail gate and your biggest tell that it is a Pro variant of the Windsor EV – new 18-inch alloy wheels which  can be seen on the Hector as well. On the inside, the interior theme is now Ivory white and black and lastly, the Windsor Pro now supports Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) and Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) which is essentially means that you can power up appliances through the charging port of the car through an accessory that would set you back by Rs 5,000, or you can transfer charge to another car through an accessory cable who’s price is yet to be finalised but MG says should be about Rs 20,000.</p><h2>MG Windsor EV Pro Review: What’s the Same? </h2><p>Everything else about the car remains the same. This means everything we love about the car, like the 135-degree reclinable lounge seats at the back, the impressive 9-speaker audio system, ventilated front seats, ample storage areas around the cabin and the sheer size and space that you get for your money on the inside continue to impress. This also means that the massive 15.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system, which is in equal measure impressive and yet cumbersome to use as almost all functionalities of the car are operated through it, also remains.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
      <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/1746791098975-9nnl-MG-Windsor-EV-Pro-Interior.webp" alt="MG Windsor EV Pro Interior" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
    </div>
  <p>What remains to be talked about is the ride and handling, which also, thankfully, continue to be thoroughly impressive. With the larger battery pack, MG has had to fine-tune the suspension and reinforce the structure of the car at a few places to accommodate the slight increase in weight. Once on the move, you will barely notice any difference in the way the car is to drive. This means it continues to be a fantastic handler that hides its weight rather well.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

    </div>
  <h2>MG Windsor EV Pro Review: Worth Checking Out?</h2><p>The MG Windsor EV was already an impressive package on all fronts. While I believe there was an opportunity to bump up the feel-good feature set or the performance a couple of notches higher since it has the ‘Pro’ in its name, it is hard to argue against what MG has brought to the table. Especially when you consider that despite the longer range, the Windsor EV Pro still manages to undercut the Rs 20 lakh price tag. So, the answer is yes, it is worth checking out. Moreover, it is a highly recommended option in the price bracket and worth consideration, irrespective of whether you are in the market for an Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) powered car or an EV.<br></p>

MG Windsor EV Pro Review: More Wind in the Sail!

The MG Windsor EV Pro builds on a solid foundation, but does it do enough? We find out by taking it out for a drive in the lovely hills of Shillong.

<p>The Kia Carens has been selling well and has even surpassed the 2 lakh units sales mark since its launch. However, this three-row offering was due for an update. But rather than replacing the old model with a new one, Kia has instead decided to bring a new vehicle based on the Carens, but made to be more premium and feature-rich. This new vehicle is the Carens Clavis. While the Carens name points to its lineage, the term Clavis is Latin for key. Specifically, it has been taken from a Latin phrase that means the golden key. So, what key changes have been made to make the Carens Clavis that make it a step up from the Carens?</p>
<p><a href="https://youtu.be/27HvUcTn6qQ?si=Rn8DHNTWonbOXWbo"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/27HvUcTn6qQ?si=c4gMRiIYkvpsPRgY" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></a></p>
<h2>Kia Carens Clavis Design &amp; Styling <br></h2>
<p>Despite being the same vehicle underneath the skin, the Clavis looks different from the Carens. This is largely thanks to the digital tiger nose grille and the new Star Map LED DRLs and headlamp cluster. The front is largely closed off, much like EVs and resembles Kia’s more recent offerings like the Syros and EV9. There is a prominent sliver chrome skid plate and both ends at either end of the vehicle to give it a butch SUV-like appeal. In fact, the raised bonnet adds to this bolder appeal at the front and side. What also helps elevate the look of the Clavis are the 17-inch alloy wheels, which are an inch bigger than the ones on the Carens. In terms of dimensions, the Clavis is 10mm longer but shares the rest of its figures with the Carens. This also means that the 216-litre boot remains the same.</p>
<h2>More gadgets! <br></h2>
<p>When you step inside, you are greeted by a much more premium and modern cabin. Not only is there more tech on display, but the materials used on the dashboard are great to look at, too. New additions include a connected island housing twin 10.25-inch displays, a four-way power adjustable driver’s seat, a new steering wheel and a bigger dual-pane panoramic sunroof. There is also a new hybrid touch panel which can switch from media to AC controls. While it saves space on the dashboard, I am not completely sold on its usability. If you are driving and want to make any changes, you will have to take your eyes off the road.</p>
<p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/KIA-Carens-clavis-6-1747369221418.webp" alt="KIA Carens clavis interior .jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>
<p>The second row has not seen many changes and you can get the Clavis in 6- and 7-seater variants, just like the Carens. The 7-seater option does come with a three-point seatbelt for the middle passenger this time around. Also, there is a walk-in feature that allows you to adjust the front passenger seat from the second row by using a lever on the side of the seat. Similarly, there is a one-touch tumble function for the left-side second row seat, which makes getting into the third row easier. Since the bigger sunroof extends till the second row, the roof-mounted AC vents have been moved to the sides. It was a bit disappointing to see that the underthigh support in the second row has not improved.</p>
<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/KIA-Carens-clavis-10-1747369599171.webp" alt="KIA Carens clavis 3rd row seats.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
</div>
<p>The third row is also rather decent for shorter journeys. It is much more suited for children than adults, considering the lack of underthigh support and legroom. I do, however, like that Kia has given AC vents, reading lights, two USB-C ports and cupholders even in the last row. <br></p>
<h2>Kia Carens Clavis: Powertrain Options</h2>
<p>The drivetrain options remain the same as the Carens — a 1.5-litre NA petrol, 1.5-litre turbo-charged petrol and 1.5-litre diesel. The power and torque figures remain unchanged, too, but the Clavis also gets a 6-speed manual transmission along with the 1.5 turbo-petrol. </p>
<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/KIA-Carens-clavis-8-1747369643631.webp" alt="KIA Carens clavis turbo petrol engine.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
</div>
<p>The Clavis is a comfort-oriented vehicle and that is apparent in the quiet cabin, light steering wheel and absorbent suspension. Ground clearance is not a problem either, as I did not bottom out even while clearing tall speedbreakers. Unlike the Carens, the Clavis does get 20 Level 2 ADAS features that make your driving experience safer. The additional cameras fitted onto the car also enable a surround view feature which makes parking the vehicle easier. <br></p>
<h2>Kia Carens Clavis: Verdict<br></h2>
<p>The Carens Clavis is definitely a step up from the Carens. It looks more modern, has more features, while retaining a plush ride experience and the versatility of multiple powertrain options. While pricing is not out yet, we know that it will be more expensive than the Carens. As long as Kia manages to have a modest increase of around Rs 1-1.5 lakh over the Carens, the Clavis will be an easy recommendation for families.<br></p>

Kia Carens Clavis First Drive Review: The Perfect Family Car?

What does the Carens Clavis bring to the table to make it the go-to choice for Indian families? Is it a big enough improvement over the current Carens?

<p>
    After spending some time with the Toyota Vellfire, it’s easy to see why it has become the latest obsession in Bollywood. Nearly every major superstar has welcomed one into their garage, making it the vehicle of choice for the next red carpet appearance. After all, the Vellfire seamlessly blends practicality with indulgence, offering a unique sense of understated luxury unmatched by any other car in the Indian market, regardless of price. Let’s take a closer look.</p>

<h2>It’s Mahoosive!</h2>

<p>The Vellfire blends the bold, brawny aesthetic of a full-size SUV with the practical form factor of an MPV. Viewed head-on, the first thing that grabs your attention is its massive grille – one so imposing, it could put even the burliest of SUVs to shame. But the side tells a completely different story – here, the Vellfire embraces its MPV identity unapologetically. It’s also from this angle that its sheer size becomes apparent – standing nearly 2 metres tall and stretching just over 5 metres long. So commanding is its presence that even the 19-inch wheels seem modest.</p>

<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/Toyota-Vellfire-Front-Three-Quarter-1747310269679.webp" alt="Toyota Vellfire-Front-Three-Quarter.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
</div>

<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
    
<br></div>

<p>Design-wise, it departs from the traditional ‘breadbox’ MPV silhouette with a stylish kink in the window line, which makes the car look more stylish than the outgoing model’s almost B-pillar-like intrusion. Here, you will also see the Vellfire badging, a subtle yet classy detail. At the rear, the boxy shape has a hint of sportiness, courtesy of a prominent roof spoiler. One design element that truly stands out is the chrome trim tracing the window line. It begins at the kink on the side, flows above the windows, wraps seamlessly around the spoiler, and mirrors itself on the opposite side – a thoughtful and beautifully executed detail.</p>

<h2>The Luxury Lounge</h2>

<p>The real reason to consider the Vellfire lies in its interior. Step inside, and you’re greeted by a cabin that feels nothing short of a luxurious airport lounge – an experience unmatched at this price point. Comfort is clearly the top priority, with everything else taking a backseat. The only slight effort required is while getting into the cabin. Starting at the front, the cabin is solidly built and purpose-driven. There’s a deliberate absence of ornamental flair here – understandable, given that this seat would most likely be used by the chauffeur. </p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/Toyota-Vellfire-View-Of-Steering-Console-And-Instrumentation-1747310402227.webp" alt="Toyota Vellfire-View-Of-Steering-Console-And-Instrumentation.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>That said, should you find yourself behind the wheel, you’ll immediately appreciate the comfort and confidence it inspires, even over long drives. The Head-Up Display is a thoughtful addition, offering useful driving information without distraction. While the infotainment system’s interface may take a bit of getting used to, the crisp 14-inch touchscreen responds well, and the inclusion of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is a nice touch.</p>

<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/Toyota-Vellfire-Seat-Space-1747310326297.webp" alt="Toyota Vellfire-Seat-Space.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
</div>

<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
    
<br></div>

<p>It’s in the middle row where the Vellfire truly shines. The power-sliding doors alone offer a red-carpet-like experience, making you feel like a celebrity the moment you step in or out. Sink into either of the two captain seats, and you’re immediately enveloped in cloud-like comfort. Quite simply, these are among the most luxurious and comfortable seats. Their wide range of adjustability allows you to tailor your perfect seating or resting position, including the ability to recline nearly flat with the leg rests fully extended. Everything here is designed with indulgence in mind. Even the window blinds are electrically operated, and there are features like heating, ventilation, and massage functionality. </p><p><strong>Also Read:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/2025-camry-hybrid-first-drive-review-luxury-and-performance-with-25kmpl-119388/" target="_blank">2025 Camry Hybrid First Drive Review</a><br></p><p>There is a large drop-down screen for entertainment on the go and individual pop-out touchscreens near the armrests to give passengers control over almost every aspect of the car’s features. Other thoughtful touches include a foldable tray with a built-in vanity mirror for each passenger and dual sunroofs with powered sunshades.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/Toyota-Vellfire-Power-Window-Switches-1747310280838.webp" alt="Toyota Vellfire-Power-Window-Switches.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>

<p>The real surprise, however, lies in the third row, which is as spacious as the second row in any other ‘regular’ car. Long journeys here won’t be a problem, though access is only via the space between the middle-row seats – something that you get used to. Finally, the boot space is nothing short of cavernous if you fold the last row of seats (which is done manually) — you can pretty much shift houses without batting an eye.</p>

<h2>A Driver's Car</h2>

<p>But not in the way you might expect. Driving the Vellfire is as exciting as making a sandwich. That’s not a dig; in fact, it’s a testament to how effortlessly and efficiently it handles its core purpose: comfortable, no-fuss commuting. If your priority is transporting people with minimal drama, there’s nothing quite as effective, purpose-built, and emotionally detached as the Vellfire.</p><p><strong>Also Read:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/bmw-i7-vs-range-rover-comparison-review-113973/" target="_blank">BMW i7 Vs Range Rover Autobiography Comparison</a><br></p>

<p>Under the hood, it gets a 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine with an electric motor for a combined output of around 250bhp. That may sound like a healthy figure, but given the sheer size of the Vellfire, it feels just about adequate. Power is sent to the front wheels via a CVT gearbox, and it emits the typical whine when pushed hard. However, take things slow – or find yourself crawling through inevitable city traffic – and the Vellfire truly comes into its own. At lower speeds and with sufficient battery charge, it can run silently in EV mode. As the speed picks up, the petrol engine kicks in seamlessly. Ride quality is exceptional, with most road imperfections soaked up effortlessly; only the occasional sharp bump manages to filter through. If there’s one area where the Vellfire could improve, it’s in cabin insulation, for road and wind noise do creep in at highway speeds, slightly disrupting an otherwise whisper-quiet atmosphere.</p>

<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
   
<img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/Toyota-Vellfire-Rear-Seat-Space-1747310450093.webp" alt="Toyota Vellfire-Rear-Seat-Space.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></div>

<div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
    
<br></div>

<p>Surprisingly, the Vellfire never scraped its belly during our test, even without the aid of an air suspension setup. The stock suspension delivers a ride quality that’s very much in line with expectations, striking a fine balance between comfort and practicality. Adding to its usability is Toyota’s suite of ADAS features, which rely on both camera and radar systems. These prove genuinely helpful, particularly during long-distance drives or when navigating the sheer size of this MPV through tighter spaces.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/05/Toyota-Vellfire-Rear-Three-Quarter-1747310460094.webp" alt="Toyota Vellfire-Rear-Three-Quarter.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>

<h2>Verdict</h2>

<p>The Vellfire has certainly become a lot more expensive than it used to be. With its prices ranging between ₹1.22 crore to ₹1.33 crore (ex-showroom), it now squares off against some of the most elite chauffeur-driven offerings in the country. Yes, you could opt for a fancier badge at this price, but few vehicles offer the same peace of mind that comes with a Toyota, especially when combined with this level of comfort and practicality. If you value being well-rested during your daily chauffeur-driven routine, prefer subtle luxury, and want a vehicle that delivers uncompromised comfort without attracting undue attention, the Vellfire is as good as it gets.

Volvo XC40 Recharge [2022-2024]

RightHandDriving

- CC

<p>The Volvo XC40 Recharge is the brand's first electric vehicle in India, which went on sale in 2022 with a&nbsp;single dual-motor setup. The Swedish automaker, however, recently introduced an entry-level model to the portfolio, making the e-SUV more affordable. The new variant, called the Plus (formerly known as the 'Single'), has a sticker price of Rs 54.95 lakh (ex-showroom), with reservations currently open for Rs 1 lakh. The Ultimate variant of the SUV costs Rs 57.90 lakh, which is 2.95 lakh more than the base model. While the newly released Plus model has rear-wheel drive, the dual-motor version comes with an all-wheel drive. All prices are ex-showroom.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="Volvo XC40 Recharge" height="720" src="/uploads/2024/03/Volvo-XC40-Recharge.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p>The SUV offers two battery packs: 69kWh and 78kWh. The Plus model has a smaller 69kWh battery and a rear-axle-mounted electric motor that produces 236bhp and 420Nm. In comparison, the Ultimate model sports a larger 78kWh battery and two electric motors, one on each axle, which delivers 402bhp and 660Nm.</p>

<p>The <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/volvo-xc40-recharge-single-motor-variant-bookings-open-in-india-at-rs-1-lakh-116532/">Plus</a> model's claimed WLTP range is 475 kilometres, while the dual-motor Ultimate variant has a range of 505 kilometres. The former (Plus) can accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in 7.3 seconds, but the latter (Ultimate) can do it in 4.9 seconds. However, the maximum speed for both models is 180km/h. Let's have a quick look at the detailed feature list of these variants.</p>

2024 Volvo XC40 Recharge Plus, Ultimate Variants Explained: What's Different?

The XC40 Recharge recently gained a new base variant called Plus, which comes with a single-motor setup. The new version is Rs 2.95 lakh more affordable than the top-spec Ultimate (dual-motor) variant, which costs Rs 57.90 lakh. All prices are ex-showroom.

<p>Volvo Car India launched the&nbsp;single-motor variant of the XC40 Recharge at Rs 54.95 lakh (ex-showroom). At this price tag, the XC40 Recharge Plus (E60)&nbsp;–&nbsp;as referred to by the company&nbsp;–&nbsp;undercuts the dual-motor all-wheel-drive variant of the XC40 Recharge, which sets you back by Rs 57.90 lakh (ex-showroom). This marks the third electric offering from the Swedish manufacturer, following the&nbsp;XC40 Recharge Ultimate and the C40 Recharge.&nbsp;The&nbsp;XC40 Recharge Plus is available for booking for a token amount of Rs 1 lakh, although through an online portal only.</p>

<p>As the name suggests, the&nbsp;XC40 Recharge single-motor variant gets a rear-axle-mounted electric motor and a&nbsp;69kWh lithium-ion battery pack. The electric motor is capable of churning out&nbsp;236bhp and 420Nm of peak torque, while the battery offers a WLTP-claimed range of 475 kilometres&nbsp;on a single charge. Volvo says the SUV can accelerate from a halt to 100km/h in 7.3 seconds and attain a&nbsp;top speed of 180km/h. An 8-year battery warranty is available at no extra cost with the electric SUV, which also includes&nbsp;a wall box charger (as a standard fitment). Moreover, you also get&nbsp;a three-year complete car warranty, a five-year digital service subscription, a three-year Volvo service package, and three years of roadside assistance.</p>

<p>However, in comparison to the XC40 Recharge twin-motor, the single-motor version lacks&nbsp;Pixel LED headlamps, fog lamps, a Harman Kardon sound system, and a 360-degree camera. Having said that, the new variant comes with a leather-free interior, a 9.0-inch infotainment screen,&nbsp;a 12-inch digital driver's display,&nbsp;wireless smartphone charging,&nbsp;powered front seats, two-zone climate control, a panoramic sunroof, an 8-speaker sound system,&nbsp;an advanced air purifier system with a PM 2.5 sensor, TPMS, and so on.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Safety-wise, the E60 offers seven airbags, a blind spot information system with cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, pilot assist, lane-keeping aid, collision mitigation support (front and rear), and parking assistance sensors (front and rear).</p>

<h2>Volvo XC40 Recharge Single-Motor Variant: Rivals</h2>

<p>In the Indian market, the&nbsp;Volvo XC40 Recharge single motor rivals&nbsp;the&nbsp;Hyundai Ioniq 5, the BYD Seal sedan (<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/byd-seal-electric-sedan-launched-in-india-at-rs-41-lakh-116371/">launched in early March</a>),&nbsp;and others. Like the XC40 Recharge twin motor,&nbsp;it too will be&nbsp;assembled at the Company’s plant at Hosakote in Bengaluru, Karnataka.</p>

<h2>Upcoming Volvo Launches</h2>

<p>Last month, <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/volvo-ex90-ex30-electric-suvs-to-launch-in-india-in-2025-heres-what-to-expect-116316/">Volvo officially confirmed the launch of the EX30 and EX90</a> electric SUVs in the Indian market by 2025.&nbsp;The former will be&nbsp;the Swedish carmaker's entry-level EV built on&nbsp;Geely's SEA platform, while the latter will be the brand's flagship model underpinned by an EV SPA2 architecture.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Volvo EV Lineup in India&nbsp;</h2>

<p>In the India EV lineup, Volvo now sells the XC40 Recharge Plus, the XC40 Recharge&nbsp;Ultimate, and the C40 Recharge, priced at Rs 54.95 lakh, Rs 57.90 lakh, and Rs 62.95 lakh, respectively. The prices are ex-showroom.</p>


Volvo XC40 Recharge Single-Motor Variant Bookings Open in India at Rs 1 Lakh

The Volvo XC40 Recharge single-motor variant is available for booking for a token amount of Rs 1 lakh, although through a dedicated online portal only.

<p>In 2022, the Volvo XC40 Recharge made its debut in India, with an ex-showroom&nbsp;starting price of Rs&nbsp;55.90 lakh. This&nbsp;electric SUV, which now retails for Rs&nbsp;56.90 lakh (ex-showroom), is offered by the automaker in a single, fully loaded trim. The Swedish luxury carmaker is offering discounts of up to Rs&nbsp;2.35 lakh&nbsp;on the SUV&nbsp;as of February 2024. However, this offer is valid for MY23 cars. In addition, there's also a Rs&nbsp;52,000 discount on the MY24 units. For Rs&nbsp;1 lakh, you can reserve the vehicle at any authorised&nbsp;dealership or on the brand's&nbsp;official website.</p>

<h2>Volvo XC40 Recharge: Battery Specs and Range</h2>

<p><img alt="Volvo XC40 Recharge Rear Quarter" height="720" src="/uploads/2024/02/Volvo-XC40-Recharge-rear-quarter.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p>The XC40 Recharge is offered in India in a single&nbsp;variant&nbsp;which has two electric motors—one on each axle—producing 408bhp&nbsp;and 660Nm of peak torque and is claimed to have a range of 418-kilometre on the WLTP cycle. This makes&nbsp;it nearly twice as powerful as the XC40 with a petrol&nbsp;mill. With all that power, the XC40 Recharge can accelerate from 0 to 100km/h&nbsp;in 4.9 seconds; however, the EV weighs 400 kg more than the petrol-powered equivalent.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Volvo XC40 Recharge: Charging Time</h2>

<p>With a 78kWh battery that can handle 150kW DC rapid charging, the Volvo XC40 Recharge can achieve 10 per cent&nbsp;to 80 per cent charging&nbsp;in just 28&nbsp;minutes. The car manufacturer further&nbsp;claims that the electrified XC40 can reach 100 per cent&nbsp;charge in roughly 2.5 hours using a more convenient 50kW fast charger.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Volvo XC40 Recharge: Exterior Design</h2>

<p>The XC40 Recharge arrived in India largely as a&nbsp;facelifted model, with a few minor cosmetic adjustments like a redesigned bumper and a new "Thor's Hammer" DRL. The car&nbsp;is 15mm longer than the gasoline-powered XC40, but because of the battery pack, it has a marginally lower ground clearance of 175mm. Moreover, it comes equipped with a new set of dual-tone 19-inch alloy wheels, a blacked-out grille, and a 452-litre boot with an extra 31-litre&nbsp;boot under the engine.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Volvo C40 Recharge: Features</h2>

<p><img alt="Volvo XC40 Recharge Interior 1 " height="720" src="/uploads/2024/02/Volvo-XC40-Recharge-interior-1-.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p>Speaking of features, the <a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/volvo-xc40-recharge-review-first-drive-110900/">XC40 Recharge's</a> infotainment and telematics systems were&nbsp;carried over from the facelifted XC60, which has an&nbsp;infotainment system based on Android and a crisper set of digital dials. With the aid of an onboard e-SIM, the driver has direct access to Google Assistant and Maps, as well as other PlayStore apps. On top of that, a&nbsp;panoramic sunroof, wireless phone charging, connected&nbsp;car technology, a comprehensive suite of sensor-based ADAS features including Level 2 Autonomous driving, powered front seats with driver-side memory, and a high-end Harman Kardon sound system are all included with the SUV.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Volvo XC40 Recharge: Rivals</h2>

<p>Coming to the market rivals, the XC40 Recharge takes on the likes of the Hyundai Ioniq 5, the BMW i4, and the <a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/kia-ev6-first-drive-review-111036/">Kia EV6</a> in our country.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the Indian market, Volvo India also offers the XC90 SUV and the S90 sedan variants. Nonetheless, the company's present focus is on positioning itself as a high-end electric vehicle manufacturer in the home market with the goal of having an entirely electrified portfolio by 2030.</p>

<p>The XC40 Recharge has dual electric motors that produce 402bhp&nbsp;and 660Nm. A 78kWh battery pack powers the motors. It&nbsp;gives the SUV a stated range of 418 kilometres. The power is distributed to all four wheels, and the SUV accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in 4.9 seconds. Its powertrain supports fast charging up to 150kW, allowing it to charge the battery from 0&nbsp;to 80% in 40 minutes.</p>

Volvo starts assembling XC40 Recharge in India

Volvo Car India has rolled the first unit of its locally assembled electric SUV, the Volvo XC40 Recharge. Pascal Kusters, Volvo Car Plant Head, flagged off the e-SUV. Volvo XC40 Recharge was launched in India on July 26, 2022, for Rs 55.90 lakh.

<p><em><strong>Volvo's first all-electric offering India is almost here!</strong></em></p>

<p>Volvo is all set to launch the XC40 Recharge in India on July 26. The Swedish manufacturer will be bringing the facelifted version of the car to our shores with localised assembly. The new version will come with a few cosmetic changes along with two electric motors.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The XC40 Recharge is expected to be powered by a 78kWh battery that delivers a claimed range of 418km on a single charge. The car will come with 150kW DC fast charging that will juice up the car from 10% to 80% in just 33 minutes. With a 50kW charger, the car will fully charge in about 2.5 hours.</p>

<p>The <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/volvo/">Volvo </a>XC40 Recharge SUV will get two electric motors on each axle that will output 402bhp and 660Nm of torque, which is nearly double what its ICE siblings deliver. However, the car tips the scale at 1,188kg which is 400kg heavier than the former.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In terms of features, the<a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/volvo/xc40-recharge/"> XC40 Recharge </a>comes with a new infotainment system and telematics that are borrowed from the Volvo XC60 facelift. It gets an optional leather-free interior and also includes sharper dials with a new Android-based infotainment system.

Volvo XC40 Recharge electric SUV to be launched in India on July 26

Volvo is all set to debut the new Volvo XC40 Recharge in India on July 26. In the domestic market, the car will rake on the likes of Kia EV6 and Hyundai Ioniq among others. Here's everything you need to know about the car.

<p><em><strong>Volvo Cars India has announced that the upcoming XC40 Recharge will be locally assembled in the country.</strong></em></p>

<p>The Swedish manufacturer issued a statement noting that the <a href="https://www.autox.com/suv-cars-in-india/" target="_blank">SUV</a> will be assembled at its plant in Hosakote in Bengaluru. The company is likely to begin accepting bookings for the car soon, and the launch will follow sometime next month.&nbsp;</p>

<p>We expect the deliveries of the car to begin during the festive season, this year. When launched, the car will take on the likes of the recently-launched <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/kia/ev6/" target="_blank">Kia EV6</a> and other premium offerings that operate in the same segment.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In terms of design, it's pretty the same as its ICE sibling. There are a few distinguishing elements, including a faux front grille, which is finished in the body colour. The charging point remains in the same position, i.e. behind the fuel filler cap. The Swedish design language exudes simplicity, and elements such as the LED headlamps, vertically-positioned LED taillights, black cladding on the front and rear bumpers, and dual-tone paint job make the SUV quite easy on the eyes.</p>

<p>The XC40 Recharge will be<a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/volvo/"> Volvo’s</a> first fully-electric offering in our country. It's powered by a 78kWh battery pack, which offers 418km of range on a single charge. The car outputs 408hp and 660Nm of peak torque. Volvo also claims that the car can be recharged from 10% to 80% in just 33 minutes, using a 150kW DC fast charger.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In terms of features, the Volvo <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/volvo/xc40-recharge/">XC40 Recharge</a> will come equipped with a new nine-inch Android-based touchscreen infotainment system, with OTA updates, dual-zone climate control, a panoramic sunroof, four USB Type-C ports, and a fully digital instrument cluster.&nbsp;</p>


Upcoming Volvo XC40 Recharge electric SUV to be locally assembled, bookings to open soon

Volvo has announced that the upcoming XC40 Recharge electric SUV will be locally assembled in India. The car will be worked on at the company's plant in Hosakote in Bengaluru. Bookings for the car is expected to start soon with the launch following some time next month.

<p><em><strong>While other carmakers might be using EVs to promote efficiency, low running costs and other such unremarkable things, Volvo is looking to make a big bang with the blistering performance of the XC40 Recharge. We drive it to see what it offers to customers, other than neck-snapping acceleration.</strong></em></p>

<p>In a conservative and economy conscious automotive market like India, most discussions about cars in general, and especially EVs, tend to move towards their efficiency, how cheap they are to run, and their environmental benefit. But, when it comes to <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/volvo/">Volvo</a>’s first EV in India, this is simply not enough, and the brand wants to make a bigger splash. So, what do you do when you want your EV to stand out? Well, bring in the most powerful version possible and talk about the performance of a compact SUV which puts most sports cars to shame! This is all the more surprising given how Volvo has always been perceived in India as a brand with traditional values and a focus on safety.</p>

<p><strong>Blisteringly Fast</strong></p>

<p>Make no mistake, Volvo very consciously knows that to make a large impact, an EV has to stand out for more than just driving range and price. And that’s why the brand has brought in the full-fat dual-motor AWD version of the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/volvo/xc40-recharge/">XC40 Recharge</a> to India. After all, if you’re going to let your customers experience something new, surprise them with such performance that it leaves an impression on their brains. No surprise then, that with its 408bhp and 660Nm of torque, the XC40 Recharge has more power and torque than the Porsche Taycan offered in India! But first, let’s talk about the basics of the car before we get into the details of driving and other important things.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="Volvo XC40 Recharge Front Quarter Motion" height="720" src="/uploads/2022/04/Volvo-XC40-Recharge-Front-Quarter-Motion.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p><strong>Not much Change&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p>When it comes to design, there is very little that has changed between the regular <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/volvo/xc40/">ICE-powered XC40</a> and the Recharge. In this version, you get new badging, a different front grille which is essentially a plastic fascia, different 19-inch wheels and Recharge badging on the C-pillar. Of course, practicality has increased on the Recharge with there being a storage space under the front bonnet, because, of course, now there’s no engine. The interiors of the XC40 also&nbsp;remain very similar to what's&nbsp;offered on the ICE variant.</p>

<p><img alt="Volvo XC40 Recharge C Pillar Badge" height="720" src="/uploads/2022/04/Volvo-XC40-Recharge-C-Pillar-Badge.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p>However, the Recharge does come very well equipped as standard. The car that you see in this picture is not exactly India spec, as the cars that will come to India – prices of the Recharge will be announced in July, while delivered being in October – will be slightly different. Two major changes will be that this red shade will not be offered – which is a shame because I think the XC40 looks great in this colour with its contrast roof – and there’ll also be an optional leather-free interior.</p>

<p>Of course, being a typical Volvo you’ll find a full suite of safety features on the XC40, as well as more goodies such as a panoramic roof, a digital instrument cluster, and a large multimedia system that now comes with Google integration. One particular highlight of the infotainment system is the integration of ‘Hey Google’ which picks up voice commands even with Indian accents very easily and makes for easy control without having to take your eyes off the road when you’re trying to change the cabin temperature or setting a new destination on navigation. The interior also feels very well-built with extremely comfortable seats and good finishing. However, there are some XC40 related compromises, such as the rear seat cushion not providing enough under-thigh support.</p>

<p><img alt="Volvo XC40 Recharge Interior" height="720" src="/uploads/2022/04/Volvo-XC40-Recharge-Interior.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p><strong>Like a Rocket</strong></p>

<p>Now, rockets can be some of the fastest accelerating machines on this planet, and the XC40 Recharge doesn’t feel too different from that experience. In fact, as I said to Volvo officials, customers of the Recharge will have to recalibrate their brains to get used to the performance of the EV, and how fast the XC40 accelerates, especially in what we call in-gear acceleration. If you’re doing 60 and even accidentally squeeze the throttle pedal, you’ll be seeing the national speed limit of 120 on the speedo before you can even blink.</p>

<p>The extent of the performance is such that whether you’re doing a standing start or overtaking other traffic, there’s hardly any vehicle that is able to keep up with the XC40 Recharge. With 660Nm available in what is essentially a Creta sized vehicle, the performance is blistering, and might I say addictive. The suspension also supports here, delivering terrific ride comfort even on some very broken Delhi-Gurgaon highway stretches. And, of course, there’s the NVH, which is brilliant and the car feels like a very silent place to be in, delivering maximum refinement.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="Volvo XC40 Recharge Side View Static" height="720" src="/uploads/2022/04/Volvo-XC40-Recharge-Side-View-Static.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p>A couple of niggles also get noticed though. One, despite its small size, like all EVs, the XC40 Recharge is hefty, weighing in around the 2.2-ton mark in international spec. And you can feel this weight when going through some bad patches of road, or when trying to corner aggressively. It’s well masked in everyday driving, but push the performance envelope and the mass makes its presence known. Secondly, I would’ve liked a little more feel through the steering wheel, as it currently feels a bit too inert for my liking. And lastly, there are no multiple brake regeneration settings available, and the single setting available for the single-pedal operation of the EV was a bit too extreme for me. A couple of options in the intensity of the brake regeneration would be a welcome addition to the feature list.</p>

<p><img alt="Volvo XC40 Recharge Tailgate Badge1" height="720" src="/uploads/2022/04/Volvo-XC40-Recharge-Tailgate-Badge1.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p><strong>Making a Bang</strong></p>

<p>But, I think, overwhelmingly, people are going to love what the XC40 Recharge offers. I simply loved the performance it offers in a compact package that’s perfectly suited to our urban centres with the capability of taking long road trips too. In fact, I said in my video review that this is one of the most fun-to-drive EVs that I’ve driven. And when it comes to the all-important matter of range, the 78kWh battery pack&nbsp;is claimed to offer 400kms on a single charge, however, in the real world a mark of 300-320kms is what you will get.</p>

<p>With a practical size, impressive feature list and mind-blowing performance with a practical real-world range, the Volvo XC40 Recharge offers a compelling package to Indian customers. Sure, it won’t be cheap, but then, good things in life rarely are.</p>
