2022 Volvo XC40 Recharge vs. 2022 Tesla Model Y : Choose Style and Reliability

February 21 2022,

2022 Volvo XC40 Recharge vs. 2022 Tesla Model Y : Choose Style and Reliability

The all-electric 2022 XC40 Recharge makes urban living and beyond easier with a compact design, efficient operation, and convenient tech that helps you get from point A to point B and much more. The XC40 Recharge doesn't sacrifice style, either. Beginning with the front end, every line and curve is derived from the XC40's larger Volvo cousins. 

The XC40 Recharge brings a lot to the table. Here, we compare it to the 2022 Tesla Model Y.

The 2022 XC40 Recharge is more powerful than the Model Y

The Volvo XC40 Recharge gives you more. It uses a state-of-the-art electric powertrain with a high output battery to deliver 402 horsepower and 486 lb-ft of torque. The Volvo XC40 Recharge edges out the Tesla on power with a faster 0-100 time of 4.7 seconds.

The Model Y delivers only 384 horsepower with 375 lb-ft of torque, and takes a bit more time to sprint from 0-100 km/h.

The 2022 XC40 Recharge is more stylish, reliable and technologically advanced

You might have heard it in the news or from a current Model Y owner, but the information is widespread about the Model Y’s and Tesla’s fabrication and quality issues. Body panels that are horribly misaligned, paint that chips off easily after just a few months on the road, as well as parts availability issues have all been reported many times, giving Tesla and the Model Y a horrible reputation in terms of quality.

The XC40 Recharge benefits from Volvo’s experience and excellence in automotive manufacturing all backed up by a warranty you can count on.

Of course, the Volvo XC40 is also much more stylish than the Model Y. This styling serves a purpose in your everyday driving in terms of aerodynamics and ground clearance, but also inside, where the Scandinavian touch perfectly blends with the best in terms of infotainment system with Google integration.

This system comes with the Google Assistant and Google Maps, along with many other elements that aim at facilitating and making your trips much more enjoyable than with the Model Y.

The Volvo XC40 Recharge is more powerful, more reliable and more technologically advanced than the Tesla Model Y. You can shop for your car online with us. Our representatives are waiting for your call and can answer all your questions.
