The Volvo XC40 has been on sale for nearly a decade, believe it or not, with surprisingly few changes to show for it. But with the XC60 and XC90 both receiving recent tweaks, it seemed like the right time for Volvo to give its smallest SUV some attention, too.
For 2028, the Volvo XC40 gets the usual assortment of updates we’ve come to expect from the brand—a minor exterior refresh, small changes to the cabin, and a new powertrain. If you’re looking for a dramatic redesign, you’ll want to look elsewhere. The latest XC40 doesn't fix what isn't broken.
What's new? The updated XC40 sees a new front fascia, complete with updated Thor's Hammer headlights
The XC40 becomes mild-hybrid only, with the pure-ICE and electric EX40 variants being dropped from the US market
An updated cabin features Volvo's new 11.2-inch screen, as well as optional leather seats
