2026 Volvo EX40

The 2026 Volvo EX40 has arrived at Volvo Cars Keene as the high-voltage evolution of the compact SUV, proving that zero-emission driving can still carry a heavyweight punch. As your regional EV headquarters in Swanzey—located right on the Monadnock Highway—we know that navigating the winter slush of Route 101 or the climbing grades toward Mount Monadnock requires a machine with true all-weather grit. The 2026 EX40 delivers with a standard 248-horsepower rear-wheel-drive setup or a formidable 402-horsepower Twin Motor AWD system. This isn't just a city cruiser; it is a high-torque, "future-proof" brawler designed to rule the roads from Keene to the busy corridors of Nashua and Manchester with total authority.

Interior

Step inside the 2026 EX40 and you will find a digital sanctuary that prioritizes minimalist Scandinavian luxury and first-class technology. The cabin is anchored by a 9-inch portrait touchscreen featuring Google built-in, providing surgical precision for navigation and real-time energy management for your treks to Brattleboro or Peterborough. Because we know New Hampshire winters are relentless, heated front seats and a heated steering wheel come standard to keep you in the fight, while the Plus and Ultra trims offer a panoramic roof that floods the cabin with Natural State light. With a clever "frunk" for extra storage and up to 57.5 cubic feet of total cargo space with the rear seats folded, this sanctuary is built to keep your crew connected and refreshed from Jaffrey to Rindge.

Exterior

The 2026 EX40 commands respect from the streets of Concord to the backroads of Winchendon with a sleek, aerodynamic profile and a predatory front fascia. The design features a body-colored covered grille and the iconic "Thor’s Hammer" LED headlights that slice through the New England fog with ease. Sitting on standard 19-inch 5-spoke glossy black diamond-cut wheels or aggressive 20-inch designs on the Black Edition, the EX40 projects a planted, confident stance. Every line is functional, contributing to a modern masterpiece that looks just as fast parked in a Swanzey driveway as it does cruising the interstate. For those who want a monochromatic edge, the Black Edition offers high-gloss black badging and trim for a truly custom-shop look.

Performance

Under the hood—and beneath the floor—the 2026 EX40 is powered by a formidable 82-kWh battery heart. The Single Motor Extended Range model unleashes a responsive 248 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, achieving an impressive EPA-estimated 296 miles of range. For those who crave more muscle, the Twin Motor AWD system unleashes a gut-punching 402 horsepower and 494 lb-ft of torque, rocketed by a 0-60 mph time of just 4.6 seconds. With DC fast-charging capable of adding 10% to 80% range in approximately 28 minutes, you have the endurance to tackle daily commutes and weekend adventures alike. Combined with a 2,000-lb towing capacity and One-Pedal Drive technology, the EX40 ensures you have total authority over any terrain.

Safety Features

A true warrior always watches their six, and Volvo’s legendary safety legacy continues to act as your digital fortress. Every 2026 EX40 comes standard with a comprehensive suite of protective technology, including the Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) with Steer Assist and Cross Traffic Alert with Autobrake. Standard features like Lane Keeping Aid and Oncoming Lane Mitigation act as an extra set of eyes when navigating busy intersections in Walpole or Jaffrey. For 2026, the suite features enhanced sensor resolution for more precise detection of pedestrians and cyclists, while the Pilot Assist system provides high-tech armor for your highway drives. It is the security you need to push the limits safely on every journey through the Granite State.
