Volvo Car Corporation builds electric cars for all environmental conditions. Volvo C30 Electric features incomparable technology that boosts daily use in subzero temperatures. Keeping the batteries in good status and the passenger compartment well warm in subzero climate necessitates a lot of energy. The Volvo C30 Electric is equipt with a sophisticated climate system. The Volvo C30 Electric can be prepared for the drive when it is being charged. The preconditioning timer is programmed via the car's menu settings.
"Unlike most electric car models on the market, the C30 Electric driver doesn't have to sacrifice a generous operating range to creating a comfortable climate even in extreme winter temperatures," adds Lennart Stegland. "The climate unit is programmed to suit the trip. The fuel heater is used when battery capacity is needed for maximum mobility."
"Our uncompromising attitude includes that the C30 Electric must perform as intended when driving, parking and charging in a variety of conditions, from normal to very cold or hot. The Arctic part of Sweden is the perfect place to do sub-zero temperature testing," says Lennart Stegland.
