The more powerful T5, which pairs exclusively with all-wheel drive, helped our Momentum test vehicle scoot to 60 mph in a reasonably brisk 6.2 seconds. Under the hood of every XC40 is a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder making either 184 or 248 horsepower (called T4 and T5, respectively). Lastly, we'd opt for the Lava carpeting and door inserts to make the XC40 just a little funkier.
We'd add the Climate package, which provides heating for the rear seats, steering wheel, and windshield wiper blades, as well as the Advanced package, which brings adaptive cruise control with a semi-autonomous mode, a 360-degree surround-view camera, a wireless smartphone charging pad, a 12-volt outlet in the cargo area, and headlamp washers. The T5 R-Design comes standard with navigation, a panoramic roof, and a sporty appearance. We'd select the T5 R-Design model not solely for the seasonal security of all-wheel drive, but also for the more powerful 248-hp engine. Volvo has also added the all-electric XC40 Recharge model to the lineup, but we review that model separately. The once-standard heated windshield wiper blades and cargo-area 12-volt outlet are now part of options packages, and the adaptive suspension system is no longer available.
Volvo cut the AM radio tuner from the features list, but buyers can use the provided TuneIn radio app in the XC40's infotainment system to listen to those stations. What's New for 2021?īlind-spot monitoring, rear-cross-traffic alert, leather upholstery, adaptive LED headlamps, power-folding exterior mirrors with an auto-dimming function, rear parking sensors, and two rear-seat USB-C ports are now standard across the XC40 lineup. Compared with most of its subcompact-crossover rivals-such as the BMW X1 and the Mercedes-Benz GLA-class-the XC40 has a more commanding driving position, making it feel larger than it is. Inside, buyers will find a thoughtfully designed cabin complete with plenty of storage cubbies and a smattering of high-tech features. Volvo offers two different turbocharged four-cylinders: The 184-hp T4 engine comes with front-wheel drive, and the more powerful 248-hp T5 gets all-wheel drive as standard. Volvo's fun and funky XC40 blends everything we love about the brand's large SUVs with a more youthful appearance and a charming driving demeanor, which earned it an Editors' Choice award.
