Hard to give a great review as I have only driven it about 40 miles. It is a nice little car and handles very well. Turned in my Inscription XC60, which I absolutely loved. That was a very classy looking car. The XC40 styling is very nice but I cannot honestly say it has as much pzazz as the Inscription

Cute from far but far from cute!

There are three trim models and two engine options. I purchased the R-Design trim with the T4 engine because I did not know much about Volvo. The exterior has a classy look but the interior is boxy and not very tech forward. They say the XC40 is competing with the BMW X1, Audi Q3, and Benz GLA250, but it’s really shouldn’t be compared to those luxury brands. The Volvo XC40 is more in comparison with Mazda and Subaru than anything else. A luxury brand they say? Far from it! Just because the car is unique to Sweden and they brand it as luxury it does not mean that it will live up to its name. The drive feels flimsy, the speed is not adequate, and the interior is mediocre. They put the T4 engine on an SUV, which is absolutely sad. It takes 8 seconds to go from 0-60. Any engine with less than 220 horsepower does not belong inside an SUV. The biggest mistake I made was leasing this Volvo XC40 T4 R-Design. My Mazda CX5 Grand Touring was better equipped, sportier, and more fun to drive. I recommend going for something like the BMW X1 or Mazda CX-5 if you want luxury and a good drive.

Some Great Some Terrible

So driving wise car is fine…comfortable and such. I have had four new cars in the last 5 years and I cannot believe that Volvo put into the market such a technology retard. Nothing is intuitive at all with system. Just finding anything is a cluster ———. The salesman on delivery told me most owners use their iPhone for navigation and after one attempt I see why…but that not the worst of interface. Frankly so bad and frustrating I am going to get rid of that particular car this year. Wish not so. Oh I keep getting faulty car warnings as well.

I’m pleased with most aspects of the XC40 except it’s noisy compared to my 2008 XC70. At speeds between 30 - 60 it has a wind throb sound as if a window was open. It bothers my hearing.

My title is Live to Drive because of the safety features in my XC40. I was the middle part of a sandwich in a 3 car crash and after being checked out in the ER. I went home standing on my oown. The Front crash sensers functioned perfectly. The side curtain Air Bags deployed. My seat beat and harness tightened on its own and held my head against those slanted head rest folks talk about so bad.Volvo tech kicked in and the woman called the police, ambulance and even called the doctors appt I was about to miss. I spent today shopping for my next Volvo. I think that says it all.
