The Volvo EX40 is a compact electric SUV from Volvo. It replaced the XC40 Recharge name in Volvo’s EV lineup. The model sits in the premium compact segment and uses a five-door SUV body with seating for five.
The EX40 uses battery options around 69 kWh and 82 kWh depending on trim. Range reaches about 296 miles or 476 km under WLTP testing for the single-motor version. Dual-motor trims deliver lower range due to higher output. DC fast charging supports up to 200 kW. A 10 to 80 percent charge takes about 28 minutes under ideal conditions.
Pricing places the EX40 in the premium compact EV class. Many markets list starting prices near $52,000 before incentives. The SUV suits drivers who want a smaller luxury EV with strong safety tech and simple interior design. Other Volvo EVs include the Volvo EX30 and Volvo EC40. Key alternatives include the Tesla Model Y and Audi Q4 e-tron. The EX40 sits close to Model Y in size yet focuses more on comfort and safety features.
