2026 Volvo EX40 review
Volvo EX40: everyday electric done right. Illustrative review
8.4/10 OffLot expert score
The 2026 Volvo EX40 sits near the top of its class. Easy to see out of and park; roomy second row and flexible cargo floor. Engine gets loud under hard acceleration and third row (where offered) is for kids, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $55,000, it lines up with most direct rivals.

Owner reviews · 4.7 of 5 from 3 owners
Replaced an older Volvo with this one. Big step up in cargo room; I'd like a little more power from the base engine.
Bought it for the school runs and road trips and it has handled everything so far. Fuel economy has been close to the sticker in mixed driving.
