Volvo XC40 rear window price, by year
Pricing varies across the four active XC40 variants based on the complexity of hardware laminated into the glass — models with antenna or TV-antenna systems require precision matching during sourcing, which can affect cost. Tinted variants and those with solar-control coating may also influence pricing depending on supplier availability.
Earlier XC40s (2017–2019) and later models (2020+) can carry different feature sets, so the year of your vehicle and the specific hardware fitted affects the final quote.
| Year | Price range | Variants | Quote |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 | £464 — £583 | 4 variants | Price my 2026 |
| 2025 | £464 — £583 | 4 variants | Price my 2025 |
| 2024 | £464 — £583 | 4 variants | Price my 2024 |

What to expect during your Volvo XC40 rear window replacement
Booking your rear-window replacement through UKCG is straightforward — from instant quote to fitting day.
- 1
Answer a quick online quiz about your XC40 (year, trim, and features) to get an instant quote — takes under a minute.
- 2
Complete your booking online in about two minutes, choosing your preferred fitting date and location.
- 3
UKCG matches you with an approved fitter in your area who sources your replacement glass and confirms all antenna and hardware details.
- 4
Your fitter arrives at your home or workshop on the booked date. Rear-window replacement typically takes 30–60 minutes of active work, plus shard cleanup.
- 5
Because the original glass is shattered, small shards can lodge in places fitters can't reach on the day — we recommend a professional valet afterwards for a thorough interior clean.
- 6
Your new rear window is covered by a two-year warranty on workmanship and glass quality.
Aftercare is simple: give the adhesive time to cure (your fitter confirms the drive-away time before leaving) and book a valet if you want a detailed interior clean.
Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your XC40?
Most XC40 rear-window replacements are carried out at your home or preferred location as a mobile service. Because the rear window is not part of the ADAS camera system (unlike windscreen replacement), no calibration is required, and the job can typically be completed anywhere accessible to a technician.
Weather or access issues may occasionally prompt a workshop visit instead — your fitter will discuss this with you during booking. The no-split rule applies: if a workshop is needed, the full job is scheduled there so there's no back-and-forth.
We confirm the specific answer for your vehicle when you book.

Antenna4
2017–2026On the Volvo XC40: fitted on every one of the 4 rear window variants we list; model years 2017–2026.
What it means
A radio or DAB aerial laminated into the glass, replacing a traditional roof mast. Replacement glass must carry the matching antenna print and connector so reception is restored.
On your Volvo XC40
Standard across all XC40 variants in our catalogue — confirmed during the quote process.
Heated Rear Windscreen4
2017–2026On the Volvo XC40: fitted on every one of the 4 rear window variants we list; model years 2017–2026.
Heated rear windscreen with integrated wires clears mist and ice when you switch on the demister.
What it means
A heated rear windscreen contains fine heating wires embedded within the glass. When you activate the rear demister, an electrical current passes through these wires, warming the glass and melting ice or condensation. This feature is particularly useful in cold or damp weather, improving rear visibility quickly. The heating grid is integral to the glass and connected to your vehicle's electrical circuit via connectors at the base of the windscreen.
How to tell
Look at the rear windscreen from inside the vehicle — you will see a fine grid of horizontal lines across the glass, typically bronze or copper in colour. On the dashboard or steering wheel stalk, there will be a dedicated rear-demist button, usually marked with a windscreen symbol and heating lines. If in doubt, ask your vehicle's service centre or consult your handbook.
Replacement impact
Replacement rear windscreens with heated grids are widely available as original-equipment aftermarket or dealership parts. The new glass must include the factory heating grid and electrical connectors intact. The technician will reconnect the heating circuit to your vehicle's rear-demist switch. Heated rear windscreens are bonded glass, so adhesive cure time applies; drive-away time will be confirmed by the fitter on the day.
Green2
2017–2026On the Volvo XC40: fitted on 2 of the 4 rear window variants we list (50%); model years 2017–2026.
What it means
A subtle green tint present in most factory glass, hard to detect with the naked eye. Replacement glass must match this tint to maintain appearance and consistency.
On your Volvo XC40
Verified during the parts-check phase — our technicians ensure the tint specification is confirmed before sourcing.
Grey Privacy2
2017–2026On the Volvo XC40: fitted on 2 of the 4 rear window variants we list (50%); model years 2017–2026.
Dark grey tint on rear windows provides privacy and reduces interior heat and glare.
What it means
Dark grey tint, formally known as privacy glass, is a factory-applied tint created through a deep-dipping process during glass manufacture. The pigment is infused into the inner surface of the glass, darkening the rear windows (and sometimes rear doors) significantly more than the front. This reduces heat transmission, minimises glare, and obscures the interior from outside view. It's standard on the rear half of many modern vehicles.
How to tell
Compare the rear side windows and rear window (backlight) to the front side windows — the rear glass will be noticeably darker. Check your vehicle documents or ask your dealership service centre if you're unsure whether your car left the factory with privacy glass.
Replacement impact
Dark grey tinted glass must be sourced from the Original Equipment Equivalent (OEE) or dealership to ensure colour and transmission match your vehicle's existing rear glass. The tint is integral to the glass itself, not a surface coating, so aftermarket non-tinted glass will look visibly mismatched. Replacement does not require any calibration and follows standard bonded-glass cure times for rear windows.
Solar Control2
2017–2026On the Volvo XC40: fitted on 2 of the 4 rear window variants we list (50%); model years 2017–2026.
What it means
A solar-control coating that absorbs infrared rays from sunlight, helping reduce cabin heat and glare. Found on premium and higher-trim variants.
On your Volvo XC40
Optional on select XC40 models — confirmed during the parts check phase of your booking.
TV Antenna2
2017–2026On the Volvo XC40: fitted on 2 of the 4 rear window variants we list (50%); model years 2017–2026.
What it means
A TV-reception aerial laminated into the glass, separate from radio antenna, typically used for rear-seat entertainment systems. Replacement preserves the original TV reception.
On your Volvo XC40
Present on select XC40 variants with rear-seat entertainment — confirmed in your online quote based on your trim and year.
About the Volvo XC40
The Volvo XC40 has been in production since 2017 on the Compact Modular Architecture (CMA) platform, establishing itself as a popular compact SUV across the UK market. Rear windows on the XC40 are typically toughened glass and arrive shattered during replacement, requiring thorough shard cleanup as part of the fitting process.
Many XC40 variants feature hardware laminated into the rear glass — antenna elements for radio and DAB reception, and on some models, TV-antenna systems for rear-seat entertainment. These must be matched exactly on replacement to preserve your vehicle's original reception capabilities.
Depending on the model year and trim, your rear window may carry dark-tinted glass (darker than the front side windows) or solar-control coating that absorbs infrared rays. The specialists you're matched with will verify these features during the parts check and ensure your replacement meets the exact factory specification.
