The EX40 is Volvo's compact electric SUV, sharing its platform with the Polestar 2 and the earlier XC40 Recharge. It delivers Volvo's typically thoughtful interior design, a comprehensive safety suite, and Android Automotive with Google built in. Towing capacity of 1,500kg is rare in a small electric SUV and adds meaningful versatility for caravan or trailer owners.
Key differentiator
1,500kg braked towing in a compact electric SUV, combined with Volvo's renowned safety suite and Scandinavian interior quality.
Who is this for?
Volvo loyalists making the switch to electric, or buyers who want Swedish safety credentials, a refined interior, and the ability to tow.
The Single Motor Extended Range at $72,990 with 533km WLTP range and 150kW DC charging is the balanced everyday pick. A Twin Motor variant with AWD and 4.7s 0-100 is also available for buyers who want all-weather confidence or need the extra performance. The 1,500kg towing capacity makes the EX40 one of the few small EVs worth considering if you own a small trailer or camper.
