Volvo EC40 Price in Bengaluru
| Price component | Amount |
|---|---|
| Ex-showroom price | Rs 59.00 lakh |
| Registration (10%) | Rs 5.90 lakh |
| Insurance (approx.) | Rs 2.95 lakh |
| Other charges | Rs 0.59 lakh |
| On-road price | Rs 68.44 lakh |
Karnataka waives road tax only on EVs under Rs 25 lakh. As a result, EC40 buyers in Bengaluru pay about Rs 5.9 lakh in registration alone.
On-Road Price Across States
On-road prices vary between states. For example, the EC40 costs about Rs 62.40 lakh on-road in Delhi, roughly Rs 6 lakh less than in Bengaluru. That’s because Delhi waives road tax on EVs. Even so, insurance on a car this valuable adds a few lakh rupees everywhere, so ask your Volvo dealer for an itemised quote.
What the Price Includes
Since Volvo sells the EC40 in one fully loaded form, the price covers everything. Buyers get twin-motor AWD, Pixel LED headlights, a panoramic glass roof and 19-inch alloys. Inside, there’s a 9-inch touchscreen with Google built-in, a 12.3-inch driver display and Harman Kardon sound. For safety, Pilot Assist, a 360-degree camera and blind spot steering assist come standard. However, it misses ventilated seats and a head-up display.
EC40 Running Cost and Warranty
With home charging, the EC40 costs roughly Rs 1.4 to Rs 1.8 per km to run. That’s far cheaper than a petrol luxury SUV with similar performance. Furthermore, Volvo covers the battery for 8 years or 1.6 lakh km and the car for 3 years or 1 lakh km.
Volvo EC40 Price vs Rivals
| Model | Ex-showroom price | Body type |
|---|---|---|
| Volvo EC40 | Rs 59 lakh | Coupe-SUV |
| Volvo EX30 | Rs 41 lakh | Compact SUV |
| BMW iX1 LWB | Rs 52.70 lakh | SUV |
| Hyundai IONIQ 5 | Rs 55.70 lakh | Crossover |
| Mercedes-Benz CLA EV | Rs 55 to 64 lakh | Sedan |
| Kia EV6 | Rs 65.90 lakh | Crossover |
The EC40 sits in the middle of this group on price. The BMW iX1 LWB and IONIQ 5 cost less and offer more space, while the Kia EV6 costs more but claims longer range. However, the EC40 stands out for its all-wheel drive and strong 402 bhp output.
