* The figures are based on WLTP data obtained under specific testing conditions. The real-life driving range and energy consumption [22.3 - 20.9 kWh/1000km] achieved under real conditions varies depending on driving behaviour and other external factors. ** Figures are based on preliminary target for DC fast charging (150 kW). Charging times can vary and are dependent on factors such as outdoor temperature, current battery temperature, charging equipment, battery condition and car condition.
No compromises
The EC40 doesn’t force you to choose between power and responsible driving. Just take your seat, drive away and enjoy the comfort of one-pedal drive and smooth acceleration – with zero tailpipe emissions.
Responsible pleasure
Make every journey about much more than getting from A to B. In the EC40, your commitment to a more sustainable future has never felt better.
Cleaner cabin air
The advanced air purifier in Volvo's world-first air quality system prevents up to 80 per cent of hazardous PM 2.5 particles from entering the cabin. This can help you and your passengers enjoy better and healthier air quality, no matter the conditions outside. You can even monitor particle and pollen levels outside the car.
A helping hand
Volvo's advanced driver assistance technology can help you maintain a safe distance from cars in front by adapting your speed, keeping your car centred in the lane, informing you when it’s time to resume driving and even bringing the vehicle to a complete stop in the event of an unresponsive driver

The interior of the EC40 has been created without the use of any leather and is a living expression of responsible luxury.
The EC40 is available with partially recycled upholsteries and carpets – a more sustainable choice as well as visually harmonising interior design features.
The topography-inspired translucent back-lit decor creates a natural, soothing glow and a contemporary vibe in the cabin.
The standard fixed panoramic roof has laminated, tinted glass that provides effective protection from glare and UV radiation. It also helps to create an airy, more natural environment in the cabin, maintain a comfortable temperature and contribute to a silent ride.
Drawing inspiration from Scandinavian aesthetics, the EC40 fuses functionality, simplicity, and craftsmanship. The calm, comfortable, and ergonomically optimised cabin features sophisticated seats with a high seating position and responsive steering for a more controlled and comfortable drive.
Inside, you’ll discover smart storage solutions for water bottles, gym bags, phones, laptops, take-away food and much more.
Front-loading storage and a large rear compartment that’s easy to pack with no threshold and a flat loading floor when you fold down the rear seats means the EC40 offers more cargo space and versatility than you might expect from its slim roofline. And it does it without compromising comfort or safety.
Best-in-class navigation
With Google Maps seamlessly integrated in the EC40, real-time traffic info and automatic rerouting helps you reach your destination with less hassle.
Google Assistant
Talk to Google in your EC40 for hands-free help. Easily get directions, enjoy entertainment and keep in touch with friends, family and colleagues – just say “Hey Google” to get started.
Google Play
Stay connected to your digital life. Google Play in your EC40 lets you enjoy the apps and services that can make every journey more entertaining and convenient.
Always up to date
The EC40 receives automatic over-the-air updates, ensuring you enjoy a car that keeps improving over time and is always up to date.
More in-car apps
Always striving to enhance your Volvo experience, we stay up-to-date and continuously introduce new and useful in-car apps, making your journey more comfortable, more entertaining, increasingly enjoyable and, hopefully, completely hassle-free.
360° parking view
With four cameras providing a 360° view and flank sensors increasing awareness of objects at the side of the car, our system can help you park confidently even in confined spaces.
Reverse with confidence
Cross-traffic alert with auto brake supports the driver when reversing with limited view. The system can detect vehicles crossing behind and if needed, the auto brake can be applied.*
Ease stress in busy traffic
Blind spot information system (BLIS) provides active support when changing lanes. If there is a risk of collision with other vehicles in the adjacent lane, BLIS can subtly adjust steering, helping keep you, your car and your loved ones right where you mean to be.
Stay in lane
Your Volvo can send a subtle vibration through the steering wheel and help steer you back to the centre if you unintentionally start to drift out of your lane.
Avoid collisions
Day or night, our intelligent safety assistance technology can help you detect and avoid other vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists and large animals. It does this by first warning the driver then autobraking if the driver fails to react.**
Protective body structure
Advanced body structure and a unique battery safety cage are designed to help protect all occupants in a collision as well as to help protect the occupants of other vehicles.
Beautiful sound for the senses
This premium optional audio system delivers a refined sound performance you can feel all around you. No matter the genre, it immerses you, moves you and lets you enjoy every moment.
Immerse yourself in music
The system is powered by a 600W digital amplifier and enabled by 13 hi-fi speakers including an air-ventilated subwoofer. Tailored to your Volvo’s interior acoustics, a powerful, immersive sound experience awaits.
Optimised speaker performance
Unique sound processing software – Dirac® Unison Tuning – optimises the response of each individual speaker as well as the speakers as a system, ensuring they perform in perfect harmony.
