How often should a Volvo C40 Recharge be serviced?
It is no secret that electric cars require less maintenance during their service intervals but what are those intervals actually? We checked with Volvo to see how often the incredible C40 Recharge needs to head to the workshop.

Scheduled maintenance
The scheduled maintenance of your Volvo C40 Recharge should be undertaken every 32,000 km's or every 24 months as per your owner's manual.
When you take your C40 in for its recommended service, the service technicians should only need to check your washer fluid, tyre inflation pressure, brake system fluid levels, and exterior lights.
The main work item will be an inspection of your battery, ensuring that it is operating as expected and the technicians may suggest improving or maintaining your vehicle battery's condition by altering driving styles, charging and storage.
