Performance
One of the main draws to a CUV is its ability to deliver the comforts of an SUV with the efficiency of a sedan — the XC40 is no different. The new Volvo XC40's standard powertrain setup is anchored by a punchy turbocharged 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, with a max horsepower of up to 247. Drivers can combine the new XC40's peppy powertrain with available all-wheel drive for maximum handling capabilities on the road. This list includes other performance features you should be aware of:
- All-wheel Drive (AWD)
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- BLIS™ and Cross Traffic Alert
Technology
When deciding what technologies to include in a new CUV, automakers are primarily focused on one thing: keeping you and your passengers safe. There are also new safety innovations from Volvo that will assist you wherever you are on the road. Drivers and riders alike of the new XC40 will benefit from continuous connectivity provided by the vehicle's wide range of multimedia and infotainment options. The XC40 also offers the following:
- Google Built-in
- Whiplash Injury Protection
- 9-inch Center Display
Design
It's tradition for Volvo to deliver CUVs that are second-look-worthy, but the new XC40 takes it to a whole new level. With a cargo capability of up to 58 cu ft, it's clear that every inch of the new XC40's interior is used to its maximum potential. The interior of the new XC40 is as comfortable as it is spacious thanks to a number of available Volvo accessories. You'll find more available design specs of this car below:
