BUY, LEASE OR FINANCE A VOLVO V40 FROM OSV - bit.ly/3qGYwh1
Volvo's V40 Cross Country model made a play for the growing Qashqai-class Crossover market. It was originally launched in 2012 but is examined here in the improved form that debuted in 2016. It offers an alternative perhaps, to that Audi Q3, Mercedes GLA or BMW X1 from the 2016-2020 era you might have been thinking about. Though the changes over a standard V40 may be slight, you do get a premium feel, class-leading efficiency - and the option of 4WD at the top of the range.
Qashqai-style Crossovers now fill our roads, family hatchbacks with a touch of the Outback about them. But is it really necessary for a brand to design a product from scratch in order to compete in this growing market niche? Back in 2014, Volvo reckoned not, bringing us the car we're looking at here, their V40 Cross Country model. It was improved in 2016 and it's that later 2016-2020-era model we look at here.
If the ordinary V40 didn't exist, you might see this as a very credible kind of compact crossover. As it is, we know that this is a V40 in a pair of hiking boots - though unlike some supposedly 'proper' Qashqai-class models, it did offer the top-of-the-range option of 4WD.
From Volvo's perspective, there's everything here that you need in a compact Qashqai-class Crossover - and nothing you don't. And the 'everything you need' bit from 2016 onwards included class-leadingly efficient 2.0-litre petrol and diesel Drive-E engines.

Is it noisy? I've heard complaints about the engine noise in the diesels

Hi there 👋 Diesel engines in the Volvo V40 Cross Country may produce more audible noise compared to petrol engines. However, advancements in sound insulation technology mitigate noise levels. We advise test driving the specific diesel model you're interested in. This will provide firsthand experience and help you determine if the noise level meets your preferences.

@OSV. I like the Crossover model. These aren't that expensive used, so I've been looking at the market. Yep, that's an option with the v50, another favorite Volvo.
