All of Volvo's petrol mild-hybrid vehicles, including the XC90 SUV, the mid-size SUV XC60, the compact luxury SUV XC40, and the S90 luxury sedan, are locally assembled at the company's plant in Bangalore. Moreover, the auto manufacturer is also considering establishing a global EV plant in India.

In addition, by the end of this year, the company will introduce the Volvo C40 Recharge in India. The C40 Recharge will draw customers because of its appearance, according to Nick Connor, Head of APEC, Volvo Cars India. Based on the XC40 Recharge, the C40 Recharge is an electric coupe-SUV. Talking about the upcoming SUV, the front of the Volvo C40 Recharge will be similar to that of the XC40 Recharge, in terms of design. It will have sharp headlamps with an LED DRL pattern. Besides that, the ORVMs will be installed on the doors, and the SUV will ride on large 5-spoke alloy wheels. The car will have a coupe-like roofline, giving it a sporty appearance. 

The interior of the upcoming Volvo C40 Recharge is also identical to that of the XC40. It does, however, include a number of changes. Because the automaker wishes to keep the C40 Recharge as environment-friendly as possible, it is the first vehicle in the company's history to be devoid of leather on the inside. It has a large infotainment system in portrait mode, just like the XC40 Recharge.

Regarding the powertrain, there are two C40 Recharge models available in foreign markets, each with a different set of specifications. A single-motor, rear-wheel drive model has a 482-kilometre driving range and a maximum power output of 235bhp. The other is a dual-motor AWD system with a maximum power output of 402bhp and a driving range of 504 kilometre. The AWD model has a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 4.7 seconds.

As part of its global strategy to transition to all-electric vehicles by the year 2030, the brand has also stated that it will only introduce fully electric models in the Indian market. However, the firm's current lineup in India is mainly comprised of mild-hybrid ICE models.
