2023 Volvo C40 Recharge Plus Twin Motor Electric Estate

Description

So, I’ve had this Volvo C40 Recharge Plus for a few months now — it’s one of those cars that just feels like it was built for quiet, smart driving. It’s a twin-motor electric estate, so it’s got plenty of power and range, and I’ve actually been using it daily for work and weekend trips.

The interior’s clean and quiet — I love the CleanZone air quality system and the pollen filter, which makes a real difference when it’s dusty or windy. There’s a 12-inch driver display and a 9-inch centre screen, both of which work well with Apple CarPlay and Google Assistant. I’ve even got Google Maps and Google Play Store set up for four years — no need to keep buying apps.

I’ve got a full set of features: heated seats (front and rear outer positions), heated steering wheel, heated grill emblem, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping aid, blind spot monitoring, and park assist. The cabin is warm and comfortable thanks to the heat pump, which really helps in colder weather. The panoramic roof and charcoal headlining give it a sleek, calm vibe.

It’s got all the smart bits — keyless entry, driver’s seat memory, power mirrors, automatic dimming, DAB radio, and even a load floor with a cargo divider. The seats are comfortable, especially with the 4-way lumbar support. There’s also a cupholder in the second row and a handy glovebox hook.

I’ve been using the 22kW charger at home, and it’s been super reliable. The car has a solid safety setup — airbags, anti-theft alarm with immobiliser, EBL, and even a panic alarm. The rear seats are easy to access with a manual release, and the storage is good — front load compartment, rear armrest, and a load net for when I’m carrying things.

I bought it through Waylands, a family-run dealership in Rowlands-Castle, Finchdean — they’re a Volvo-approved dealer and have been named AM Dealer of the Year for six years in a row. I’ve never had a bad experience with them, and they’ve helped me set up the car properly.

The car is in great condition, mostly driven on local roads, and I’ve kept it well-maintained. It’s not flashy, but it’s practical, quiet, and just feels like a solid daily driver. I’m selling it because I’m moving to a new place and don’t need it as much — it’s still in great shape, and I’m happy with how it’s performed.

Price is £23,193.90 — it’s not cheap, but it’s a solid investment for someone who wants a quiet, modern, and reliable electric car.

If you’re interested, I’m happy to chat or show it over the phone. No pressure — just a real car, sold by someone who actually uses it.
