XC40 Comfort and climate
Peace of mind in your demanding day.
Multi-zone climate controls
Our standard one-zone climate system lets you choose your preferred cabin temperature. The car will optimise fan speed and air distribution, but you can still make manual adjustments.
Opt for a two-zone climate system to allow the driver and passenger to set their own temperatures.
Use the Volvo Cars app to remotely warm or cool the cabin before you get in. If you've got heated seats, you can warm the front seats and steering wheel and de-ice the windscreen and door mirrors. Optimise range by pre-conditioning the cabin while the car is charging.
Air purification technology
Air purification technology with an advanced filter keeps incoming air clear of dust, pollen and harmful PM2.5 particles. When the system’s air quality sensor detects high levels of hazardous gases outside, it automatically shuts the air intakes and activates cabin air re-circulation.
Child seats and locks
This family-friendly SUV is equipped with ISOFIX anchorages for child seats.
Power child lock
The rear doors and rear power windows can also be locked from the driver’s seat to prevent them from being opened from the inside.
Child safety recommendations
Our approach to child safety includes rigorous testing based on real-life traffic situations. That's why we strongly recommend keeping kids in rear-facing child seats until they’re at least four years old.

Charge devices using the two USB-C ports at the front of the centre console. There are two more at the rear of the console.
Power outlet
Run an electric cooler, air mattress pump or camping stove using the 12-volt power outlet in the boot.
XC40 Safety and driver support
For your most precious cargo. []
Avoid collisions
Day or night, our intelligent safety assistance technology can help you detect and avoid other vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists and large animals. It does this by first warning the driver and then autobraking if the driver fails to react.
Vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists moving in the same direction of the car can be detected under certain speeds and in certain conditions. Detection systems depend on objects being illuminated and require the vehicle’s front and rear lights to work when it is dark. Driver remains responsible for safe driving at all times.
Detects and corrects drifting
If you start drifting across the centre line, a collision with an oncoming vehicle is always a risk. Your car can detect this and correct the steering, helping you back to a safer position on the road.
Steering support is active at speeds between 60 and 140 km/h.
Stay in lane
Your Volvo car can send a subtle vibration through the steering wheel and help steer you back to the centre if you unintentionally start drifting out of your lane.
Ease stress in busy traffic
Our blind spot information system (BLIS) provides active support when changing lanes. If there is a risk of collision with other vehicles in the adjacent lane, BLIS can subtly adjust steering, helping keep you, your car and your loved ones where you mean to be.
Reverse with confidence
Cross traffic alert with autobrake supports the driver when reversing with limited view. The system can detect vehicles crossing behind yours and automatically brake the car if needed.
Safety features complement safe driving practices and are not intended to enable or encourage distracted, aggressive, or otherwise unsafe or illegal driving. Cross traffic alert may have limited functionality in certain situations. Driver support functions are not a substitute for the driver's attention and judgment. Ultimately, the driver is responsible for the safe operation of the vehicle at all times.
Features depicted may not be standard or available for all markets, equipment levels and powertrain options. Google services are enabled through a digital services package that is included for four years. After this period, new terms and fees will apply if you choose to renew.
