The first-generation Volvo XC40 received a facelift in early 2022. This aesthetic update (new bumpers, refined Pixel LED headlights) is primarily accompanied by a technological overhaul with the integration of the Google Android Automotive infotainment system across the entire range. ⚠️ IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION REGARDING DIESEL: As an expert, I must emphasize that Volvo definitively removed diesel engines (D3 and D4) from the XC40 catalog in 2020, two years before this facelift. Therefore, there are no Phase 2 (2022-2025) XC40s with diesel engines. If you absolutely require a diesel, you will need to look for used Phase 1 models (2018-2020). This report therefore focuses on the powertrains actually available for Phase 2 (Mild-hybrids, Plug-in Hybrids, and 100% Electric), while including a s
The facelifted Volvo XC40 (2022-2025) is an extremely appealing, comfortable, and safe premium compact SUV. However, if you are looking for a diesel, you are on the wrong track: Volvo eradicated this powertrain from this model in 2020. For high-mileage drivers, you will need to turn to the excellent B3/B4 (mild-hybrid) engines, which are very reliable, albeit a bit thirsty, or to competitors (BMW X1). The real strength of this Phase 2 lies in its 100% electric versions (especially the post-2023 RWD models), despite early issues marred by annoying software bugs (TCAM module). It is a recommended purchase, provided that all electronic updates have been performed.
