However, a significantly lower carbon footprint is achieved when charging the car with renewable electricity, such as wind power. When a driver charges a C40 Recharge with clean energy, such as wind power, the CO 2 life cycle impact of the car is less than half that of a traditional, combustion-engine powered Volvo XC40.
