  • Volvo confirmed updates for the 2028 Volvo XC40, refreshing the design and technology suite while announcing the EX40 will be discontinued in the United States and Canada.
  • Produced in Belgium, the new XC40 enters production later this year with sales planned for the first quarter of 2027, as the EX40 is phased out due to low sales.
  • Inside, Volvo replaced the 9.0-inch tablet with a larger 11.2-inch vertical center display, alongside a redesigned grille, sculpted hood, and simplified Thor's Hammer headlight array.
  • The 2028 XC40 features a 247-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with standard all-wheel drive and new safety tech including a 360-degree camera with door-opening alerts.
  • Volvo has not released pricing, though costs are expected to align with the current lineup starting over $41,000, with availability anticipated in Canada and the United States early in 2027.
