2022 Volvo C40 Recharge Twin Pro AWD Review - Petrolhead's first go in an all electric car

Controversial video alert.... Full on, committed petrolhead Geoff Buys Cars borrows an all electric Volvo C40 for a few hours, and is totally blown away by it.... but what's the conclusion?
Did Geoff sign up for one there and then? Is Petrol dead? Is Diesel done? Are we heading for an electric future or is the future eclectic?

I've left this video of my test drive in almost a raw format, so you can join me on the electric car adventure. Watch me go through the process of working it all out, being simultaneously amazed, dismayed, shocked and disgusted...
and then asking the inevitable big moral questions before jumping back in my petrol-powered Volvo 850 T5 for a debrief.

It's an important video, this one.

At £699 a month or £48,355 cash, I don't think I will, but I appreciated being able to drive and film this car. #Volvo #ElectricCar #EVReview #ElectricCarReview #Review #VolvoC40
