Driving -> Trips app for Your Volvo EX40 SUV First Generation (2025-2026)

8. Driving  
Your car is designed for driving. This section covers the essential driver controls that allow you to start, stop,  
steer and change gears. You can also find information about driving characteristics and handling here.  
Many of your car's driving features can be customised for a personalised experience. While some features are more directed to-  
wards comfort, others are strictly safety related. It's important to check your driving position, maintain good visibility and to al-  
ways stay attentive and focused while driving.  
8.1. Trips app  
The Trips app is a driving journal that automatically logs all trips made with your car.  
When this app is enabled, it automatically collects your car's identification number[1], location and other trip-related data, such  
as time, distance and battery consumption.  
Note  
The Trips app calculates the battery consumption based on pure consumption during a trip. If you see a different value in  
your car's trip meter, it's because the trip meter also takes energy regeneration into account.  
In the Volvo Cars app, you can:  
View, manage and delete all of your trips.  
Export your driving journal.  
Stay informed if a trip isn't uploaded due to an issue, such as network problems.

When the Trips app is enabled, all users that have paired the Volvo Cars app with the car can see the trips. If the Trips app is dis-  
abled, the car stops sending information about new trips.  
Note  
Car location sharing  
You need to enable car location sharing in the display and in the Volvo Cars app to start logging your trips.  
Storage limits  
When a trip is logged, it can be stored in the Trips app for up to 400 days. The app has the capacity to store approximately 500  
trips. When this limit is reached, older trips are automatically deleted to free up space and make room for new trips.  
Note  
If the journal isn't logging trips, the reasons for this might include:  
Weak or no network connection.  
The app isn't receiving GPS coordinates.  
Location permissions are disabled so the Trips app can't access the car's location.

8.2. Starting the car  
Starting your car requires a present and correctly used key along with pressing down the brake pedal and se-  
lecting a driving gear.  
Your car unlocks differently depending on which type of key you are using. Once unlocked, your car gradually powers on. Many  
features, such as the climate system, will be accessible once you enter your car.  
To start your car, press down the brake pedal and select a driving gear. If you are using a key card or a discharged distance-cap-  
able key, you must first place it on the card reader.  
Before you start driving, make sure that:  
All doors are closed.  
All occupants are properly seated and wearing their seatbelts correctly.  
The driver seat, the steering wheel position and the mirrors are adjusted to your driving position.  
No charging cables are connected.  
The driver area and the pedals are not obstructed.
