Volvo electric vehicles in India (2026)
Volvo has 3 electric cars on sale or confirmed for India, priced from ₹39.99L to ₹62.00L. This page covers the full line-up with specs, realistic range estimates and where each model fits.
How to read these numbers
Every range figure on this page is Volvo’s claimed or certified number, published as claimed. Expect roughly 72–80% of it in ordinary Indian conditions, and the lower end at highway speed with the air conditioning running — the working behind that band is set out in how we estimate real-world range, and the table below shows both figures so you can plan around the realistic one.
All Volvo electric cars compared
| Model | Price from | Body | Claimed range | Real-world | Battery | Power | Seats | 10–80% |

| Volvo EX30 | ₹39.99L | SUV | 480 km | 345–384 km | 69 kWh | 272 bhp | 5 | 27 min |
| Volvo EX40 Recharge | ₹49.00L | SUV | 475 km | 342–380 km | 69 kWh | 238 bhp | 5 | 28 min |

Which Volvo EV should you buy?
Across the Volvo range the answer turns on one number, and it is not the one most buyers start with: how far you drive on a typical day, not the longest trip you take in a year.
If your day is under 40 km and you can charge at home, the Volvo EX30 at ₹39.99 lakh is the sensible entry to the range — a realistic 346–384 km means you plug in once or twice a week and stop thinking about it. Paying for more range than that buys weight and price you will not use.
If you drive intercity often, the Volvo C40 Recharge is the one to look at — a claimed 530 km works out near 403 km in ordinary conditions, which is the difference between planning a trip and simply making it.
For regular highway running, note that the Volvo EX30 claims about 27 minutes on a DC fast charger — a number that repeats on every trip and matters more than range once you are past about 300 km.
Whichever you lean towards, settle the charging question before the car question: whether you can put a charge point where you park changes Volvo ownership more than any specification in the table above.

The Volvo line-up at a glance
Every figure below is calculated from Volvo’s published specifications. Realistic range applies our 72–80% band; running cost assumes ₹8 a unit and about 10% charging loss.
| Model | From | Battery | Range | DC charge | Running cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Volvo EX30 | ₹39.99 lakh | 69.0 kWh | 480 km claimed, about 365 km realistic | 27 min | about ₹1.66/km |
| Volvo EX40 Recharge | ₹49.00 lakh | 69.0 kWh | 475 km claimed, about 361 km realistic | 28 min | about ₹1.68/km |
| Volvo C40 Recharge | ₹62.00 lakh | 78.0 kWh | 530 km claimed, about 403 km realistic | 28 min | about ₹1.70/km |
A narrow line-up. Volvo offers 3 electric models here, so there is little room to trade one attribute for another within the brand. If none of the 3 fits your budget and your driving pattern cleanly, it is usually better to widen the search across brands than to stretch for the closest fit.
Cheapest way in is the Volvo EX30 at ₹39.99 lakh ex-showroom. Longest claimed range is the Volvo C40 Recharge at 530 km, which works out to roughly 403 km in ordinary conditions once the 72–80% realistic band is applied. Lowest running cost in the line-up is the Volvo EX30 at about ₹1.66 per kilometre at ₹8 a unit.
Quickest to charge is the Volvo EX30, which claims about 27 minutes on a DC fast charger. If you drive highways regularly this is the number to weigh most heavily, because it repeats on every trip — see the fastest-charging EVs in India for where that sits against the wider market.
What the table cannot tell you. Three things decide whether Volvo suits you and none of them is a specification: whether there is a service centre near you that handles EVs specifically, whether the battery warranty transfers to a second owner, and whether you can install a charge point where you park. Check all three before you shortlist a Volvo on numbers alone. Our comparison tool will put any two of these against a rival from another brand, and the running-cost calculator takes your own electricity tariff rather than our assumed ₹8 a unit.
