Volvo V40 Specs and Generations

The Volvo V40 covers two very different cars under one name: an earlier compact estate and a later five-door hatchback. Knowing which one you are looking at shapes everything that follows.

Volvo V40 Generations

Volvo V40 generations split clearly by body style. The First Generation appears as an Estate 5-door, a practical compact load-carrier, while the Second Generation and its restyling take a Hatchback 5-door or Mini 5-doors form. Decide first which shape suits you, then compare versions inside that generation.

Volvo V40 Specifications

Volvo V40 specifications vary widely, so read them per generation and version rather than model-wide. Diesel and Gasoline powertrains both appear across the range, and each engine brings its own gearbox pairing and running costs. Dimensions, safety kit and equipment belong to a specific version, not the badge.
