Volvo and Starbucks have opened 50 DC fast chargers at 15 Starbucks locations along a 1,350-mile route between the Denver area and Seattle. These chargers, placed about every 100 miles on average, can add up to 110 miles of charge in as little as 15 minutes on 2024 model year and newer XC40 and C40 Recharge models.
Drivers of fully electric Volvo models with Google embedded can use the car’s integrated ChargePoint app to find and access stations at participating Starbucks locations, while drivers of other EVs equipped with a standard CCS1 or CHAdeMO receptacle can use the ChargePoint smartphone app.
