Volvo EX40

FROM $69,990

Originally known as the XC40 Recharge Pure Electric, the Volvo EX40 arrived in 2022. It marked Volvo’s first fully electric compact SUV. It replaced previous internal combustion models in that segment. It arrived with strong safety gear and a simple cabin. That launch set a clear direction for Volvo’s electric push.

In its evolution the EX40 saw software updates in 2023. These updates improved range and charging speed. Interior refinements followed to sharpen usability. The updates kept the EX40 fresh without a full redesign.

Today the 2025 Volvo EX40 still leads Volvo’s entry electric range. It offers a clear choice for drivers moving from petrol or diesel. It stands as Volvo’s compact electric SUV for Australians. It maintains strong safety credentials and ease of use while embodying Volvo’s EV ambitions.

The line-up currently starts at $69,990 for the EX40 Ultra Single Motor and ranges through to $82,990 for the range-topping EX40 Black Edition.
