Volvo XC40 (2018 on)

1.5 T3 156hp Inscription FWD 5dr
Comfortable
Easy to drive, comfortable SUV. Not as loaded with extras as other manufacturers , despite this being the top of the range at time of purchase, and its price.
Negatives:-
Engine seems underpowered when pushed as it sounds as if it’s struggling although it doesn’t feel slow.
In addition especially when cold automatic gearbox lets you know with a minor jolt it’s changed gear…
Lastly there is a strip of black plastic inlay near the top of the doors which scratches very easily.
The above are the only negatives I can find, of note, which isn’t much as I’m very picky…
Positives:-
Comfortable on 17 inch wheels / crystal gear knob impressive/ comfortable seats and suspension.
It feels like a solid well put together car….easy to use sat nav and touch screen.
Powered boot is a joy as is the flat boot floor and hidden large space below.
II give this car 8/10 based on all the cars I have driven in my life including a Mercedes E class..
