Hi All,
Ordered (on subscription) an XC40 Recharge Ultimate Twin at the end of Jan. Expected delivery Nov.
Currently my daily is a 2003 Audi S4 with a 4.2 V8, which I'm giving up for the Volvo as I only ever drive 10-15 miles a couple of times a week as I work from home.
Got Solar/battery/EV charger being installed at the house hopefully in Sept/Oct. Looking forward to being able to have all solar powered miles!
We also have a MY20 Skoda Kodiaq vRS BiTDI which is used to tow our 1800kg caravan. So I'm intrigued to see how the Volvo does on towing duty for a few weekends away in a 50-60 mile radius from home. Should look pretty funny with a small SUV pulling a 8ft wide 27ft long twin axle beasty
Anyone else tow with their BEV (Volvo or otherwise)?

I don't think the XC40 is small!

Well given the XC60 and XC90 exist I figure it’s small, medium, large SUV?
P.S. I have a Nogaro Blue Mk1 TT Roadster as a Summer toy

Cheers. 1500kg for the single and 1800kg for the twin motor.
So I'll be towing at it's limit, but given it weighs so much and has 400bhp I'm pretty sure it'll be a good tug.

Would be interesting to see consumption and actual range while towing 1.8 tons up in the wind.
Certainly will, I’m assuming double the norm. I recently discovered from another member that as soon as you hook the towing electrics up the car halves the predicted range which I thought was pretty neat.eugen61 wrote: ↑Wed May 25, 2022 5:11 pmWould be interesting to see consumption and actual range while towing 1.8 tons up in the wind.
