The overview

The Volvo XC40 joins the growing niche of small luxury SUVs. The T5 trim we tested comes standard with AWD and a 248-hp turbocharged four-cylinder engine that packs a decent punch. Front-wheel-drive T4 versions have a 187-hp turbo engine. Like other Volvos, the ride is stiff, and the engine has a coarse growl. Worse, the controls, such as the electronic gear selector and infotainment system, are unintuitive and frustrating to operate. Handling is mundane but secure. The cabin is nicely furnished and the front seats are very comfortable. Automatic emergency braking is standard. Other available features include rear cross-traffic alert with braking assist, 360-degree camera, adaptive cruise control and lane-keep assist. Volvo's Pilot Assist system offers a suite of advanced driver assistance features. For 2024, the XC40 is only available with all-wheel-drive and the less powerful B4 engine was dropped. Front-wheel drive gas XC40 versions with 194-hp returned and new software added for 2026. For 2028, the XC40 gets a major refresh. All-wheel drive is standard.

Behind the data

Latest source update: September 11, 2026

Vehicle summaries, specifications, pricing and ratings come from Consumer Reports vehicle records. Auto Guide groups these records by model and reported generation start year.

Available years are listed explicitly. Gaps do not imply that a model was discontinued. Prices are source estimates, not live offers. No first-hand road test by Auto Guide is claimed.
