OK, so I just bought the Volvo XC40, and I am having a great experience so far. I took a while to make my decision and I feel that the value offered by it is really high. Regarding the brake feel, I had that same discomfort the first day, and then I started to understand that the braking system is quite smart. Because it has such a good sensor system, the brakes behave so you brake gradually when there is no need for sudden braking, and they behave very sensitively when needed. It does feel like one has less control over the braking, but once you begin to trust the vehicle, you become more comfortable with it.

I just got the Volvo XC40 Plus yesterday and I'm also not too big of a fan of the brakes but the rides are so smooth and I feel safe and comfortable in it and that's what was most important to me. One other thing I'm not too familiar with is the start/stop feature when you stop at a light and the a/c turns off I'm not too sure how to turn that feature off but once I do I'll be able to enjoy it even more :)

Your videos are always very thorough and your homework shows. Did you find a lot of body roll in turns? I'm thinking of buying one. Thanks. PS--could the regenerative braking system have something to do with the soft braking pedal?

I was really keen on an XC40 but after test driving it for a few hours, the body roll and quite sluggish gearbox started to dampen the cars appeal to me really heavily, I ended up signing for a new Audi Q3 due to be delivered in February/March. I'd recommend test driving the XC40 though, you might not mind the body roll/gearbox as much as I did, I tried the B4P in the UK.

Chinese junk
@Hunter-nu7uw Жыл бұрын
Do you feel the same way regarding Lotus and Polestar owned by the same Chinese company, the Zhejiang Geely Holding Group? Having leased multiple Volvos in the past decade, I have not noticed any compromise in quality and safety features. What I have noticed is the technology embedded in these cars has evolved light years during Chinese ownership. In three years time, they keep evolving the state of the art technology significantly. 2024 models are a significantly advanced tech wise over 2021 models, for example. Volvo was always behind the times in the electronic technology department. Not so today.
