The high-spirited fashionista, Ung Yiu Lin hit the road with her good friends for the ultimate luxe road trip experience in Volvo’s newest electric-only SUVs

Cruising comfortably along the highway from Kuala Lumpur to Sekinchan, entrepreneur and fashionista, Ung Yiu Lin took the chicest wheels for a nature-dotted dinner with her best friends during Ramadhan. Out on the open road, Yui Lin got the honour of feeling free, liberated, and spontaneous with the help of Volvo Cars’ newest electric-only SUVs. With a distance of approximately 92.9 km, Volvo’s electric vehicles made driving to and from Sekinchan a breeze thanks to its long driving range.

Whizzing up to Sekinchan for a day’s trip, Yiu Lin and her good friends Carey Ng, Zaireen Iskandar, and Datin Nina Ismail Sabri took the Volvo C40 Recharge Pure Electric and the Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric for a cruise down the coastal line. The vehicles certainly got all the admiration and attention they deserved on the road. It is beautifully quiet once on the move and off the road, so tearing across the fields and rough terrains wasn’t a problem for Yiu Lin and the girls. With a responsive steering wheel, it was an incredibly easy drive for them. 

Bursting with energy and enthusiasm, the beautiful entrepreneur was instantly drawn to the Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric and the Volvo C40 Recharge Pure Electric due to its eye-catching exterior and well-defined lines. Fuelling the evolution of fully battery-powered electric vehicles by fusing state-of-the-art style, substance, and sustainability, Volvo Cars are driving electric vehicles to grand heights with their new releases. It was a definite guarantee that the vehicles would get Yiu Lin and her friends from the city to the paddy fields in style.

As they say, the cars we drive say a lot about us. Some might choose vehicles based on the thrill, while others consider it as an investment. These varied perspectives all point to their unique taste and individualities. For entrepreneur Ung Yiu Lin, she goes behind the wheels of vehicles that are appreciating assets for herself, her family, and her friends – and that’s the Volvo C40 Recharge Pure Electric and the Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric. 

A leader in car safety, Volvo Cars has the best vehicles to cruise down the highway for a long trip. The group made it in good time to their destination, enjoying the scenery, sun, and views along the way. With excellent ride quality, the electric vehicles soak up bumps on the road with ease making it a smooth journey for Yiu Lin and her best friends. Built with top of its class technology and design, the Volvo C40 Recharge Pure Electric and the Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric both have superb finishing, comfortable seating and all the safety features you would expect from a Volvo. So, rest assured, the entrepreneur was in one of the safest cars on the road, making her feel safe and happy throughout the journey.

Strikingly good looking with the classic Volvo kerb appeal, the exterior and interior of the Volvo cars are total bliss, featuring an incredibly comfortable, light, and airy cabin, with acres of ultra-comfortable seats and plenty of room for five passengers. So, there was no hassle getting all the girls together on a day trip to explore Sekinchan, searching for the best mangoes at Mango King, and breaking fast at Ninja Private Kitchen. With excellent legroom in the back and spacious boot, the electric-only SUVs were the perfect choice for travelling and exploring. 

One great concern of electric vehicle ownership is battery range and charging capabilities. To allay this, Volvo Cars have made sure all drivers are aware of the network of charging stations in Malaysia through its mobile app. But all thanks to an ingenious charging strategy, the  two EVs have a driving range that helps you go further without making you stop consistently – all it needed was one break stop for the girls and they were good to go the whole day for hours of adventures.

Fiendishly powerful, rocket-quick, incredibly safe and stunningly elegant, the Volvo C40 Recharge Pure Electric and the Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric have proven to be the perfect car to take on long journeys and sleekly drive through the city – it ticks both boxes unbelievably chicly, which is why Volvo cars are one of the few things Yiu Lin is obsessed with and is the car she’d get behind the wheel all the time. 

The Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric and the Volvo C40 Recharge Pure Electric are available for bookings online at www.volvocars.com/my or authorised dealers near you.
