The Car Guide rating 4.0/5 84% Detailed ratings
Price $40,300 – $47,050 Payments
Fuel consumption 7.5 – 10.3 L/100km
It's safe to say the XC40 is the new star of Volvo. After all, it competes in the extremely popular compact luxury SUV segment. Styling is bolder than the rest of the lineup; consider the two-tone exterior option, for example. All three trim levels—the affordable Momentum, the sporty R-Design and the refined Inscription—are motivated by a 248-horsepower turbocharged engine combined with all-wheel drive. Additional powertrains, such as a plug-in hybrid system, will be offered later.
