Powertrains

Choose from four powertrains designed to deliver an engaging driving experience without compromising efficiency.

Single Motor
The balance of performance and efficiency makes this powertrain ideal for drivers with a regular commute and busy weekends. The rear motor and its 70 kWh battery provide a consistent output for quiet, comfortable driving.

Single Motor Extended Range
This option pairs the rear motor with a larger 82 kWh battery. This configuration extends your range, while an advanced inverter in the motor further boosts efficiency.

Twin Motor
With front and rear motors, this powertrain maximises the larger 82 kWh battery for added power and torque. The result is more seamless acceleration from standstill and enhanced all-wheel drive stability.

Twin Motor Performance
This powertrain adds a 25 kW boost to the front motor for even more power, acceleration and sheer driving excitement.

Efficient all-wheel drive
The Twin Motor and Twin Motor Performance powertrains default to rear-wheel drive for efficiency. Switch on all-wheel drive for continuous use.

One pedal drive
All powertrain options include one pedal drive to improve efficiency and make driving smoother. Speed up or slow down using just the accelerator. Keep your foot off, and the car will brake to a standstill.

min

Battery charging duration 10-80% (DC 200kW)

Charge your EX40 from 10 to 80 per cent in around 26 minutes at DC fast charging stations.

Charging reminders
Get charging reminders when the battery drops to 20 per cent. The centre display shows nearby charging stations on Google Maps, along with navigation and estimated charge levels on arrival.

Battery pre-conditioning
Select a charging station as your destination, and the car can heat or cool the battery before you arrive. Pre-conditioning the battery can ensure it reaches the optimal temperature for charging, so you spend less time waiting at the station.

This figure is the typical time to charge from 10 to 80 per cent at a 200kW DC fast charging station. Figures are preliminary and derived from estimates and calculations performed for the Volvo EX40. These outcomes are not guaranteed. Charging times can vary and depend on factors such as outdoor temperature, battery temperature, charging equipment, battery condition and car condition.
