Choose a version
Battery capacity, range and charging for the Volvo EX40 depend on the model year and variant. This summary is for one version. It does not blend the model into a single figure.
2025 EX40 Core (Core)
Battery capacity
69 kWh
Listed type: Lithium-Ion. This is not a measured usable capacity.
Official WLTP range
300 miles
Official combined test figure for this version.
Estimated real-world range
300 miles
Supplier estimate. Not a VehicleScore road test, and not the official WLTP figure.
Home charging
11 kW onboard
Type 2 Standard. Listed charging time: 1400 min from 10–80% on a 2.3 kW supply; 429 min from 10–80% on a 7.4 kW supply; 293 min from 10–80% on a 11 kW supply.

Miles per kWh and kWh per 100 miles are the same Wh per mile figure converted.
Battery warranty

New-car catalogue cover. It is not the warranty left on a used car.
Versions at a glance
Battery capacity, official WLTP range and estimated real-world range for each Volvo EX40 version. The estimated range is the supplier’s figure, not a VehicleScore road test. A blank cell means that figure is not listed for that version.

Charging cost estimate
Estimated home-charging cost for one Volvo EX40 version. The full charge uses that version’s listed battery capacity, which is not a measured usable capacity. Charging loss is an assumption you can change, not a test result for this car. The tariff and annual mileage are examples until you replace them.
Estimated full charge
£18.40
Estimated electricity cost per mile
6.13p
Estimated annual charging cost
£490.40
Cost per mile uses this version’s listed Wh per mile figure. A full charge is estimated at 76.67 kWh from the meter after the assumed loss. That works out at 4.35 miles per kWh before charging loss.
Charging time
A listed charging time is shown only when this version has a 10–80% time at the exact supply power you enter. Otherwise the minutes are a VehicleScore estimate from the battery capacity, that power and the charging loss. The rapid power box starts empty unless a rapid-charge limit is listed for the car. A charger’s advertised power is not filled in for you. A calculated rapid-charge time assumes constant power. It is not a real-world charging curve, and the number you type is the supply power, not confirmation of the car’s limit.
Home, 10–80%
293 min listed
Listed charging time: 293 minutes from 10–80% on a 11 kW supply. The charging-loss box does not change a listed time.
Rapid, 10–80%
24 min calculated
Calculated estimate only: constant 135 kW for 70% of the listed battery capacity, including the charging loss. This is not a real-world rapid-charging curve, and the power entered here is not the car’s confirmed limit.
Full vehicle specifications for every version
Home charging
The onboard figure is the Type 1 or Type 2 charger listed for that version. Listed charging times are 10–80% at the supply power named beside them. A 22 kW supply does not mean the car charges at 22 kW.

Winter range
These specifications do not include a winter or cold-weather range for the Volvo EX40, and this guide does not estimate one. Cold weather shortens an electric car’s range. Compare the official WLTP figure and the supplier’s estimated real-world range for the same version.
A single winter percentage would mix versions that already have different batteries and ranges.
Buying a used Volvo EX40
The figures above describe catalogue versions. They do not describe the battery in one used car.
- Match the advert to the model year and variant before you compare battery capacity or range.
- Read battery capacity as the listed catalogue figure. Usable capacity is not included.
- Check the charge port and onboard home-charger rating for that version, especially on older cars with a Type 1 socket.
- Treat the warranty as the new-car catalogue cover. Age and mileage decide what is left.
- Enter the registration for history and any battery health records available for that vehicle. This page cannot show them.
Data sources
Battery capacity, official WLTP range, estimated real-world range, listed charging times, energy use and warranty figures are vehicle specifications supplied by UK Vehicle Data. Estimated real-world range is that supplier’s estimate, not a measurement by VehicleScore. Charging costs and any minute marked as calculated are VehicleScore estimates from the figures you can see. Usable battery capacity and winter range are not in this specification set, so they are not shown. Listed charging times that cannot be a 10–80% charge of a passenger car are left out.
Each row is one catalogue version. Figures are not averaged across model years or variants.
Questions about the Volvo EX40
What battery capacity does the Volvo EX40 have?
Battery capacity differs by version: 69 kWh, 78 kWh, 82 kWh. Each figure belongs to the model year and variant in the table. They are not averaged, and none of them is a measured usable capacity.
What is the official WLTP range of the Volvo EX40?
Official WLTP combined range differs by version: 300 miles, 326 miles, 340 miles, 346 miles, 350 miles. The range table shows which model year and variant each figure belongs to.
What is the estimated real-world range of the Volvo EX40?
The supplier’s estimated real-world range differs by version: 300 miles, 326 miles, 340 miles, 346 miles, 350 miles. These are catalogue estimates, not a VehicleScore road test, and each one stays on its own version.
How efficient is the Volvo EX40?
Energy use differs by version: 223 Wh/mile, 225 Wh/mile, 230 Wh/mile, 241 Wh/mile, 252 Wh/mile. Miles per kWh on the page is calculated from that version’s Wh per mile figure.
What home charger does the Volvo EX40 accept?
The onboard home charger is listed at 11 kW on the versions that have a Type 1 or Type 2 rating. Listed charging times are 10–80% at the supply power named beside them.
How fast can the Volvo EX40 rapid charge?
A rapid-charge limit is listed only where the vehicle specification includes one and it does not disagree with the charging-port record. The listed limits are 135 kW, 155 kW, 205 kW. Other rapid times stay labelled with the supply power they were timed at.
What battery warranty does the Volvo EX40 have?
The listed battery warranty is 8 years / 100,000 miles on the versions that include it. Where both a time limit and a mileage limit are stored, the record does not say which one ends the cover. This is the new-car catalogue warranty, not the cover left on a used car.
What is the winter range of the Volvo EX40?
These specifications do not include a winter or cold-weather range for the Volvo EX40, and this page does not estimate one. The range table shows the official WLTP figure, any other official test cycle that is listed, and the supplier’s estimated real-world range where those fields are filled in.
What should I check before buying a used Volvo EX40?
Match the advert to the model year and variant before you compare battery capacity, range or charging. These pages describe catalogue versions. They do not show one car’s battery health or the warranty cover it has left. Enter the registration to check history and any battery health records available for that vehicle.
