I wasn’t ready to buy or lease an electric car, so I subscribed to one. 

I wasn’t ready to buy or lease an electric car, so I subscribed to one. 

Volvo lets you subscribe to a car at a fixed price without a long-term commitment. 

That was perfect for me because while looking for a new car, I wasn’t ready to commit to an electric vehicle, but when I found out that I could subscribe to a car with a minimum five-month term, I decided to do it. 

We got a 2023 Volvo XC40 Recharge TWIN AWD Ultimate. It’s all-electric. The subscription includes insurance, tire coverage, dents and dings coverage up to $1,000, maintenance, and 24/7 roadside service.

After five months, you can return the car, buy the car, or continue leasing it for a total of two years. 

Now begins my personal experience with owning an electric car.
