The XC40 and EX40 (the fully electric variant, renamed 2024) share the same front and rear seats. Cover sets cross-fit powertrains. Trim variance is mild: Core and Plus use standard-comfort seats that accept universal semi-custom covers; Ultimate adds moderately deeper bolsters that still fit most semi-custom sets but gain from an XC40-specific cut.

Every trim has front-seat side airbags in the outer bolsters. Airbag-compatible cover seams are mandatory - the phrase must appear on the listing. Volvo’s own leather-facing option on Ultimate is quilted; showing that quilting through a cover requires a semi-transparent mesh rather than solid neoprene.

The 60/40 rear bench is shared across trims. Rear headrests are removable across the range, so headrest-slip covers install normally. The folding load divider in the boot floor is a boot accessory point and does not touch cabin cover fit.

Frequently asked questions

Are 2022 facelift XC40 covers different from pre-facelift?

No. The 2022 mid-life update changed the infotainment and dashboard trim but did not touch the seat frames.

Do XC40 and XC60 covers interchange?

No. The XC60 is a larger SPA-platform car with different seat cushion widths and bolster geometry.
