New 2025 Volvo EX40 - Exterior & Interior

he last thing Volvo’s compact twin-motor SUV needed was extra power. But while it’s impossible to draw any definitive conclusions from our brief drive on ice, it looks like the EX40 will remain a fast, composed and comfortable road car, rather than one you’ll relish taking for a spin. Indeed, the intrusive safety aids will put a stop to that.

Two weeks ago, Volvo announced a series of 2025 model year updates for its electric 40-series SUVs. C40 and XC40 Recharge became EC40 and EX40 respectively, with the range-topping dual-motor variants gaining an optional ‘Performance’ pack.

Comprising little more than a 34bhp software tweak (now 436bhp) and an altered throttle map, the Performance pack will be available to existing MY24 customers in due course via the Volvo Cars smartphone app. New-build production will start in the spring, with the first cars expected in the UK towards the middle of the year.

To get an early taste of what’s in store, Volvo invited us to try the new EX40 Twin Performance in the icy climes of northern Sweden. While our drive was restricted to a few laps of a frozen lake, the opportunity to drive the updated car back-to-back with the smaller EX30 highlighted a few key differences between the brand’s new compact offering, and its family-SUV stalwart.
