This is a couple car review of the Volvo XC40 small luxury SUV. The Volvo XC40 is an innovative design in a crowded small SUV category. In this video we will discuss the features of the Volvo XC40 small utility in comparison to the newest entries in this compact SUV space, the Mercedes GLA and Audi Q3. The Volvo XC40 is a 2-row 5-passenger small crossover with two available engines, the base T4 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder with 187hp or the T5 version of the same engine putting out 250hp and 258lb.-ft. of torque. The power goes to all four wheels through an 8-speed automatic transmission. The XC40 is sold as an XC40 Momentum, the XC40 Inscription and this XC40 R-Design. The vast majority of buyers choose the T5 engine and either the Inscription or R-Design trims. Even the base model XC40 small luxury SUV comes nicely equipped with a 9-inch touchscreen, 12.3-inch instrument panel, Collision mitigation front and rear, Blind spot monitoring with cross traffic alert, Power adjustable drivers seat with memory, Power operated tailgate, Heated front seats and leather steering wheel and Apple Carplay & Android Auto.

Nice review. Wife looked at a few cars and wound up on the XC40, then it was T5 vs. P8. Watched both your reviews and were very helpful. The nice thing is other than drive train they are virtually identically equipped. The infotainment is Google in the P8, but lacks a few features. The limited range and extremely thirsty P8 while under normally not an issue can be a concern in the cold. Also driving both cars the T5 seems a bit more nimble and handles road irregularities better than the P8. The battery weight of the P8 hurts it on irregular roads, but still a nice car and handle good, just not as nimble as the T5. And I know people complained about Volvo's older infotainment, but I found it rather good, mostly intuitive. Wife is getting T5 in Bursting Blue and it is a very good looking vehicle. As for the wheels, the 20 inch wheels do make the ride a tad harsher and in the P9 the 19's are better on the ride, actually wish the T5 we are getting had the 19's as it would make the ride really compliant while still handling. And the T5 has a spare which the P8 does not.

Great job you two!! I’m shopping for my first lease deal as the pandemic winds down after saying goodbye to my 2012 VW Tiguan and I am just amazed by the competition and the sub/compact luxury SUV level. I appreciate your video as I do my research from the comfort of my home, and after pricing every option and test driving the tops, the xc40 just wins out. No better lease deal out there, plenty inventory seems available (unlike the Q3), and overall the vehicle just takes the cake. Seriously, thank you!!

Nice to see you guys on my birthday. As usual you guys do a great review. My friend just got one from Volvo here in Montreal as a loaner as they work on his car. Volvo are great for standing behind their products. My friend had premature rust on the 4 fenders and they replaced all four. They come from the factory already pre-painted. Also his car is almost 10 years old and has over 130Kms! His car is a fully loaded T6. Regarding the loaner he was surprised how sluggish compared to his sedan; apparently it's an 8 speed automatic while his car is a 6 speed auto. I love the Volvo interiors and even for an older model the infotainment system is quite good. Scandinavian design meets Bang & Olufsen. Don't the taillights remind you of the old Nissan Juke? Not my favorite. Volvo call the headlights Thors Hammers....They're ok. I find the price is higher than the competition for the same amount of features. BMW just reduced the starting price of the 2021 X1....and no HUD display in the Volvo. Are there any paddle shifters?

Hey Zack, those commenters that previously bashed you for saying that the XC40 was intended mostly for women were obviously not as educated and informed as you when it comes to vehicles and brands’ target consumers...quite obvious as you do car reviews for a living unlike those commenters! Good thing your opinion was validated by Volvo’s award.

Other than that was a good car I have to take it to the dealer because problems with the capless gasoline system But , I was involved in a car accident and it was totaled and I survived, so I appreciate that very much .

I owned a Volvo S60 back 2005. I have been brand hopping ever since. But I have to admit, that to this day, the most comfortable car seats I've ever sat in where the Volvo S60 seats from back in 2005. I haven't ridden a Volvo since then, but I have to imagine they have only improved in the last 16+ years. Insanely comfortable seats. They are even better than BMW. I think they are industry leading comfort.

The XC40 is built in Ghent, Belgium and Luqiao, China. The Ghent-plant is the global hub for the XC40 and supply most markets. The plant in China supply the APAC-region. You can tell by the VIN where it´s built. If a Volvo-VIN start with YV1 it´s built in Sweden or Belgium. If it starts with LVY/LYV it´s built in one of the China-plants and 7JR if it´s built in the US. In addition to this the 11th digit in the VIN is the plant-code. I´m nut sure about the Lugiau-plant, but the others are like this: 1 = Torslanda 2 = Ghent P = Daqing G = Charleston B = Chengdu An example is this VIN: LYVUZBMUDLB433959. This is a XC60 built in China (LYV) at the Chengdu-plant (B). Another one is YV1XZBBVFL2306910, and this is a XC40 built in Belgium (YV1) at the Ghent-plant (2).

In southern u.s. most people get the B4 cause of cheaper insurance,better gas mileage,less cv joint repair risks, and 250 lbs lighter. In northern climates want that 4wd for icey driving.. In europe they are very envious cause they dont even get a B4 option..only B3 ( 3 cylinder)... Great review thank you!

Thanks for the review. I disliked that upkick at the d-pillar when it debuted and still can’t see myself looking at it everyday. I’m w zack on heated steering, especially in Manitoba. I noticed that XT4 has standard heated wheel/front/rear seats and wireless acp/aa. And available massaging seats are tempting... It’s a real contender for me. Any chance to get an updated review w Andrea’s input on the XT4? Thanks absolutely love your reviews.

Thank you so much, really glad you are enjoying the reviews. We will look into getting a XT4, not sure if there is one available in the press fleet or not. Like I said in our reviews before, if I could get a heated steering wheel, heated seats and a sunroof standard, I would be a happy girl. :)

@@6aloolq8 we had issues with the autonomous features. Here's one example: Right after we bought the vehicle it had to be taken in for a recall. The dealership was returning it to us and their delivery driver was in stop and go traffic on the freeway. He ended up hitting the vehicle in front of him causing damage to the front end of our brand new Volvo. The autonomous breaking did not engage. We had other problems with the lane system. The navigation showed us in the middle of lake Michigan once in a while. We took a road trip from the Dallas Texas area to Arkansas during the middle of summer and we were only about 2 hours into it and our air conditioning unit went out. The vehicle ended up spending a lot of time in and out of the shop. Though it was very beautiful we just didn't want the headache. My wife now has a BMW X7 and we couldn't be happier with that vehicle.

Just like Volvo is a case study in expert interior design, Motormouth has become a riveting feature among the many car channels I enjoy regularly on KZfaq. From the driving footage, to questions, to onscreen info, night time pictures, comparisons with other models in the segment and so on, I can´t think of a more entertaining car channel to watch. I was skeptical at first when Zack brought a chick on board (inevitable Yoko Ono comparison), but am happy to have been proven wrong. Andrea adds a lot to what was already a great watch every week.

Hello from Volvo land (Sweden). All the Volvo XC40's (and every car in this class) should not have larger than 18" wheels. The comfort is sooooo much better with 18". This trend with 20", 21" and 22" wheels has to stop. Now! We are soon driving with napkins on aluminum rims for God's sake... Aluminum against asphalt... sounds really comfortable, right? The design hysteria in the wheel-department has gone through the roof the last 10-15 years. Buy decent, normal, adequate wheels and enjoy a quiet and luxurious ride. All 20", 21" and 22" aluminum wheels should be melted and used for engine blocks (and other more useful parts). Why would anyone drive a noisy car? *And even pay more money to get this special noise-feature???* People are completely mad.

Great review. It’s not exactly a cheap compact SUV, but compared to its competitors... I think it is a steal. Volvo products, typically of late, are undeniably unique, rather scarce and quite stoic. I’ve always wanted a Volvo (Ideally a V70 R or the V90), so if this is someone’s market, price wise ... I would absolutely recommend shortlisting the refined product. Thanks for the video.

To be honest, I would choose the CX-5 Signature over the CX-30 myself. As for the Volvo vs. Mazda, I think you have to drive them both and see which one you prefer. Between the CX-30 and the XC40, the XC40 is bigger so if you need more space, the XC40 would be the way to go.
