We're scheduled to buy a XC40 P8 in a few days.
We have a relatively new V60 CC that I loaded up with warranties for 10 years. I feel that I have a decent layman's understanding of what can go on with a car mechanically with an ICE car, and what that warranty should and won't do for me.
EVs are new territory for me, and I don't have a good grasp on what value comes with sprucing up the warranty coverage.
If anyone has thoughts on the topic, I'd appreciate hearing them. I know the XC40 P8 hasn't been on the road long enough for longterm data, but maybe folks here have had experience with other electrics. Does the coverage provided by either the Gold or Platinum VIP warranties encompass the things that are likely to need attention on this car over, say, an 8 year cycle?
