Volvo XC40 Getting Another Refresh: What It Means for Your European or Japanese Car

Volvo isn’t ready to let go of the XC40 just yet. Spy photos show the Swedish automaker is testing a second facelift for this popular compact SUV, expected to debut around 2027. That’s a decade after the original concept, proving this model has serious staying power.

For owners of Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Porsche, VW, Volvo, Jaguar, Lexus, Toyota, or Honda vehicles—including hybrids—this is a reminder that automakers constantly refine their cars. The updates include sleeker headlights, a cleaner front bumper, and a new portrait-style infotainment screen like the one in Volvo’s EX30.

Under the hood, expect mild-hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and fully electric (EX40) options to continue, with possible chassis tweaks for a smoother ride.
