The XC40 is the first Volvo to utilise the new CMA platform, to be shared by future compact Volvos, Geely, and models of Lynk & Co, and is celebrated for its take on the luxury compact SUV.
The optimisation of space within the interior of the car is regarded as a pivotal feature of the XC40 due to its increase in boot space.

The XC40 is powered through the front wheels and AWD by Volvo's new 1.5 litre three cylinder and existing 2.0 litre four cylinder engines, in both diesel and petrol variants.
From 2019, the FWD plug in hybrid named "T5 Twin Engine" is also available, combining a 180PS petrol version of the 1.5 litre, with an 74PS electric motor.

With advancements in technology, aspects like the Intellisafe feature have been installed within the Volvo XC40.
This technology is designed with the intention of preventing run off road accidents.
By using the car's advanced sensory system, the technology can detect potentially fatal scenarios such as run off road protection.

Safety belts are also capable of being automatically adjusted throughout these moments of impact while energy absorbing seat frames and seats are in place to prevent spine injuries.
This technology was created based on real life data, and various crash test track methods such as: ditch, airborne and rough terrains.

The XC40 debuted for the market in Canada, at the 2018 Montreal Auto Show.
The Volvo XC40 officially won the European Car of the Year in 2018.
