Had an XC40 B3 since November and went for the Ultimate spec. No, there isn't a sport mode. You're in a Volvo, why do you want a sport mode? The ride is superb, the storage is brilliant and would recommend one to anyone. Fuel economy is OK, not stellar, but I can get around 400-500 miles per tank. Heated seats in the rear come as standard with Ultimate, as does a heated windscreen. The heated steering wheel is VERY HOT, so much so that any more than a 2/3 setting starts to burn your hands. Now the negatives: Sometimes the Console software is a bit buggy and requires a restart (Simple to do, but really annoying). The rear camera is a pain (Mercedes and Audi do it brilliantly). The Speed limiter only works with the road sign reader, and often gets it wrong (20 When lights flash is a favourite); but the adaptive cruise on motorways is a dream, especially when combined with lane assist. After years of Audis. Mercs and BMW's, the Volvo stands up well against them all.

Thank you so much for watching and sharing! Ah good glad it wasn’t me with finding the sport mode. 😅 Having said though it’ll pick up steam when you want it to, but glides through the gears. Yeah I noticed how hot the heated steering wheel got too! Did I see two heating settings?

@@arjunprasad4448 No, my 2024 model doesn't, which is probably a good thing - the speed sign reading can be a bit hit and miss as it gets confused easily. For example, there's a section of the motorway near me, which is 70mph, but a slip road that run parallel to it for a while is 50. Guess which one it chooses?!

Have had my Vapour Grey B4 for over a year now, better than any Merc,Audi or BMW I've had over the years. Voice commands amazingly good, heated steering wheel a joy, blind spot management excellent, auto blind closure when parked in hot sunshine. I could go on, it's a joy to be in and drive, there I've said it.😂 Oh and the vapour grey colour changes depending on lighting.

I recently took delivery of a basic spec “core” XC40 in Vapour Grey (which my wife aptly calls “Farrow and Ball Grey”). Basic spec because it was “take it or leave it” deal from a lease company - very, very cheap (less than a Golf) if you don’t mind a 5k miles limit and no choices or options. Which I don’t as it’s a second car and we opted for Volvo because we have an XC60 (21 plate). Very pleased with it - frankly other than a rather dark interior (grey/black fabric seats, lots of black plastic, no sunroof for light) it’s just fine - the infotainment, particularly Google maps, is actually better than the top spec XC60, which doesn’t have android but Volvo’s own previous system - not as good. No 360 camera but excellent rear camera and emergency brake function (for those low bollards everyone has hit at least once). It has the B3 engine which is brisk and smooth and actually seems quieter than the B5 in the XC60 - maybe because the B5 has electric turbos? Ride is good, I expected it to be a bit more fidgety than the XC 60 due shorter wheelbase and no air suspension but it’s only noticeable on bad roads (of which we now have too many).

Also does the gearbox have any delay or the engine any turbo lag? I’m considering getting this over a sportage or tucson.

I've had an XC40 B3 since mid-May and so far, it has met my expectations. As with all the cars there are pros and cons but seeing what you can get for 43.000 euros these days the Volvo offers quite a lot (I have the Plus version with some extras). Regarding what you're saying @13:05 I think that it has to do with Adaptive Pedal Response. It's a setting that you can turn on/off and basically has to do with the speed limits. Instead of warning you with a sound, it doesn't allow you to go beyond the speed limit, unless you press more on the gas pedal.

Hi Nick - have owned owned since March, having had two M-B GLC's in succession, last one a 300D PP Executive with Airmatic air suspension - would say that Volvo is equally as comfortable on normal roads. Re driving mode, you're quite right that the car encourages smooth, 'go with the flow' driving and is more relaxing for that, particularly on long drives. BTW., you can change gears manually if you wish. One feature you didn't mention is 'Google Assistant.' Had some concerns about touchscreen functions etc., this system not only lets you choose car features - a/c., radio or media, heat up/down etc., make calls/hear messages etc., but you can also ask questions, and say 'navigate to M&S' and it will - stress free and pretty accurate. Also updates over the air. So... very safe and well built, high specs for the price, smooth, quiet and £23000 less than the full spec GLC I was considering. That''s why I bought one.

Test drove one last week. It is absurd that you can not turn the center screen off. Despite some manuals saying to hold the center "home" button, it does not turn the screen off, rather it puts it in cleaning mode (can clean it without the buttons being activated), or it reboots the screen. I just don't want bright screen illuminated all the time.

I had several Volvo's. Since a few months it's a Fjord blue B4 ultimate. Globally a nice car, but there are some practical choices that Volvo made which I really do not understand. The trash bin is a useless marketing gag. Everybody mentions it, but nobody adds that the armrest is consequently way too short. The display intensity was previously set by a practical small rotary knob, it could be used blindly. Now you have to look at the screen, select settings, select display, scroll down for intensity, and slide or rather fiddle to get it as intended. Doing this when entering a tunnel is close to suicide. The XC40 had the knob till last year's model change, the location in the plastic cover is still there, but the button is gone. Google maps is fine, but when it is on the screen, nothing is shown nowhere what radio station or media is playing. If you want to know or change, please touch, touch touch... You want to know the time? You can find it in small letters at the top of the central display. Previously it was shown much larger and also in front of you on the driver display. Not anymore altough there is plenty of room for it as before. One can argue that leaving out a knob is saving money, but no longer showing usefull information.... I do not understand. These 'details' rarely are mentionned in reviews, I also discovered it only afer some days of use of the new car. But I hope that Volvo will return to it's Swedish practical sense and will upgrade Over The Air.....and maybe also offer a display intensity button as a kit.

Ah that makes sense! Well first of all, thank you so much for sharing! This was the first Volvo I’d ever reviewed or even driven so was not aware of the rotary wheel before this one.

They do perform over the air updates from time to time so we’ll have to see!

Not seen a plug-in hybrid for an XC40. Thought they were all just mild hybrids. A plug-in hybrid though can be charged as little or as often as you like. If you have a plug-in hybrid you’ll want to charge it as often as you can but without adding inconvenience. So for example a trip to Scotland and back, you’re probably not wanting to stop every few miles as that’s just not practical. But plug in everyday car home, and run on electric? That’s good. Plug in every few days or every week? Also good to. The reason to plug in when you can as it’s possible to be far cheaper than fuel when running in electric. ⚡️

Unless I’m reading it wrong, the Volvo XC40 is only available in mild hybrid in the UK.

It is the car with a high level of waftability compared to its same class rivals. I know because I have one ( a B4) and have driven the Volkswagen and BMW. I would say the Beamer has a bit more focus on being a drivers car and somewhat less of being a traveler’s car where the Volvo is the other way around, somewhat less of a drivers car but more a traveler’s car. And the Volvo has more horsepower and torque than the Beamer which is relevant if you pull a 7 meter 1700kg caravan every spring summer and autumn.

Volvo’s XC-40 was very nice and practical, very smooth ride that doesn’t encourage fast driving. Similar cars there’s Mercedes GLC which is full of tech and then there’s the Volkswagen Tiguan which is also very nice and probably going to the their best seller still. They also announced a new model called the Tayron coming soon which is very similar.

I bought a B5 Ultimate 6 months ago. I thing that the engine control system is a work in progress. We have had 3 updates to the software in less than 6 months. The car is a big disappointment as I have owned several Volvos in the last 20 years. This one does not stack up to the other ones. A big disappointment for $ 51,000.
