The 2026 Volvo XC40 comes standard with a suite of driver aids to enhance your awareness and control behind the wheel:
- Adaptive Cruise Control automatically adjusts your speed to maintain a safe distance from vehicles ahead.
- Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) with Steer Assist alerts you to vehicles in your blind spot and can help steer you back into your lane.
- City Safety detects other vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, and large animals ahead, warning you of potential collisions and automatically braking if needed.
- Lane Keeping Aid gently steers you back into your lane if you begin to drift.
- Run-off Road Mitigation detects if you are about to leave the road unintentionally and uses steering and braking to keep you on track.
Volvo's high-strength steel safety cage forms a protective shell around the passenger compartment. Together with front, side, and curtain airbags, as well as a driver knee airbag, the XC40 envelops you in 360° protection in the event of a collision. The energy-absorbing interior and exterior crumple zones help dissipate crash forces away from occupants.
Your most precious cargo deserves extra protection. Integrated booster cushions in the rear seat help ensure proper seatbelt positioning for children. For infants and toddlers, ISOFIX/LATCH points allow for secure attachment of child seats.
Even after an accident occurs, the XC40 continues working to keep you safe. In a collision, the vehicle can automatically contact emergency responders and relay your location. After a crash, the hazard lights activate and the doors unlock to allow easy access for first responders. The fuel pump also shuts off to reduce fire risk.
