Charging a fully electric Volvo car
To make the most of the battery life in a pure electric car, we recommend AC charging the battery up to 90% capacity for typical daily driving and preferably not letting the charge fall below 20%.
Volvo Electric Cars
Volvo aims to become a fully electric car company by 2030, with all new cars being pure electric. Volvos electric cars embody the brand's values, remaining environmentally conscious.
They prioritise the use of recycled and bio-based materials, as well as minimising waste. With Google built in, electric Volvo cars allow for easy connectivity to your digital life and receive automatic updates. Ordering is hassle-free with Lloyd Volvo.
