Our experts put the stylish 2012 Volvo V40 hatchback through its paces. It's a distinctly Swedish take on what a prestige hatchback should be, and makes a fine alternative to a BMW 1 Series or Audi A3. WIth thanks to Richmond Golf Club.

i had one of these as a hire car in Sweden, it was absolutely brilliant, the comfort is amazing, the ride was brilliant, but then, the Swedish roads are very good, i just wish i had it for longer, so i could've figured out all the brilliant gadgets and gizmo's.

I have one as a Company car. V40 D2, She's a beauty, comfortable, well equipped and amazing fuel economy. I drive around 500 miles a week, Motorway and in London traffic and on average I put in £40.00 worth of Diesel a week.

The buttons are a nice feature if you live in a country with winter: touchscreens don't work well if you're not willing to take your gloves off.

acchaladka It should have both options: touchscreen and buttons.... But more important than that... The screen is way too small, particularly to watch the reverse camera and GPS.

Good Review. However, there must be something wrong with the boot space. 1580 liters is bigger than the boot space of the new BMW X1 F48, and I find it's hard to believe from the size of this car.

It's been only 1 year since the V40 release and the front design already looks old.

I have it, and small squeaks started at 6000 km (4000 miles). Materials quality is very good, but I'm very disappointed by the assembly. Also suspensions are noisy on small pots and holes and they have not enough impact resistance: sometimes they just travel to the end and looks like the car will fall apart. Fuel economy on the D2 is very good with 20 km/l (57 mpg) 60% city and 40% country road/highway

Alberto Mozzanega hmmm - mine has done 25000 k’s with none of those issues - in fact - no issues at all!
