New corners, new lights for 2028 Volvo XC40
The Swedish automaker gives its small SUV a sympathetic makeover.
Volvo has introduced refreshed versions of its popular XC40 crossover for the 2028 model year. The company provided flights and accommodation for Ars to view the updates. Mid-life facelifts are common for cars, allowing manufacturers to refresh styling and add new features. Volvo's 2023 XC40 update was not an all-new model, but rather a revised version.
Interim lead Akhil Krishnan stated that the aim was to create the best possible version of the already popular model. The primary changes include new front and rear lights, with a more minimalist design. Additionally, Volvo's designers reduced the corners of the car, making it slightly less room-taking than before.
