CarTell take

We haven't driven the EX40 yet. On paper, ask about timing and pricing for the facelift before buying, and push for run-out pricing on current stock.

Why consider it

  • On paper, Ultra grade standard across the range (panoramic roof, 360 camera, Harman Kardon audio, Pilot Assist) with up to 520km of range.

What to know

  • An ageing design: a facelifted MY27.5 EX40 with new tech is confirmed for Australia next year, so today's car is close to run-out.
