January in Canada in the middle of an extended cold snap with lots of snow and ice about does not deliver Optimal Conditions. And so it was in decidedly un-optimal conditions that I took possession of the 2022 XC40 Recharge to discover that the estimated range I was being granted was not in the same area code as the official 359 km. With charge listed at 72 percent, I had 170 km at my disposal. OK.

Drivers can choose the level of regenerative braking applied, anywhere from none to mild to aggressive, which basically allows for one-pedal driving. That’s not for everyone, but I’ve made it a point when in various EVs of working to get used to it, and I have. In the case of a model like the XC40, the range of which is modest and prone to shrinkage in the cold, it’s not just principle that will make you want to master it. You’ll want the added range it returns.
