Volvo V40 D3 Review 2017 | Planet Auto

[@scottishcarenthusiastsandtrain]

Great review, my mate has a V40 D4 Design and has covered in excess of 130000 miles in 4 years, when he hit a deer back in 2019 it protected him. Think he has only had one issue with it in the 4 years he has had it.

Nice looking car, reliable and crazy safe, good value strong motor

Rainy lake district.....love it😎 Good vid chaps👍

Miles Drive thank you, yes comes with the territory, as do the cows 🐮

[@feloshareeverything2106]

Very nice 👌, is it true that you can drive about 1550km range with one full tank on this Volvo v40 d3 2017?

[@PlanetautoUK]

The general consensus seems to be just under 900 miles 1400km however on an eco run it could be higher, thank you Felo

@@PlanetautoUK thank you so much for such a perfect response, I'm looking forward to buy this car and I was just wondering about the fuel economy.

@feloshareeverything2106 you’re very welcome 🙏 enjoy

[@didierverdon3482]

Is it without a tank stopper ?

[@PlanetautoUK]

Is it what Didier?

[@didierverdon3482]

There is no tank cap on some car models, is this the case on this car ?

[@PlanetautoUK]

@@didierverdon3482 oh, you mean the flap seals the tank rather than a cap, yes this has a cap.

Love from Russia ❤️ Awesome reviews 👍 Приветствую Вас, сэр! Судя по тому, как шведская компания пытается найти свое место в сегменте рынка премиум класса, получается у них вполне здорово 👍 Правда, мне кажется, что все их последние модели представляют собой баланс между роскошностью и практичностью . Если вы обратили внимание, то этот универсал весьма неплохо выглядит как с точки зрения достаточной роскоши так и одновременно вполне прост и доступен для приобретения. Что , впрочем, ничуть не умаляет его достоинства! А вы как считаете, сэр?

Язык дизайна для модельного ряда Volvo настолько изменился с начала тысячелетия, что это просто поразительно. Они также имеют высокий рейтинг безопасности, что делает их идеальными для семей. Знаете ли вы, что трехточечные ремни безопасности были разработаны и созданы Volvo, и они отдали дизайн любому производителю, который попросит, а не запатентовал его - это было сделано для того, чтобы можно было спасти больше жизней.

Они кажутся настолько продвинутыми, что почти сами себя водят! *Annabelle

I've been to the Lake District

[@PlanetautoUK]

It’s a great place to test cars, how did you find it?

[@terrificspokesman7416]

Though the V40 does not come with Volvo's new interior design. I t does not come with the newer infotainment system. Also the floating dash is one of Volvo's older design cues. Though it is still a nice car but not one of the best models in class like all the other Volvo models are when compared to rivals

[@PlanetautoUK]

It was a superb car for a long haul, the safety saved our skin on a few occasions , enjoyable to drive too.

[@terrificspokesman7416]

@@PlanetautoUK though they did not put some of the new stuff from other Volvos to make it better

[@guttersnippeesmithers3905]

I’ve been told these have Ford engines on them and they suffer from leaks

[@PlanetautoUK]

The early ones were when Ford owned Volvo if I remember correctly, leaks as in coolant or oil?

[@guttersnippeesmithers3905]

@@PlanetautoUK coolant are they Ford pre 2014???

[@Maring0418]

Not really a review more than a "everything great about the Volvo V40" list haha

[@PlanetautoUK]

True, there’s not too much to dislike about the V40.

[@Maring0418]

@@PlanetautoUK I agree wholeheartedly

Karl XIV Johan we’re looking forward to driving some the new electric Volvo range, and of course Polestar 😀

[@Maring0418]

@@PlanetautoUK Could be cool content! Such a shame that the wholly electric XC40 is so darn expensive though. 699 000 SEK or roughly £55,800!

[@PlanetautoUK]

Karl XIV Johan yes, they’ll come down in time, and there’s no grant either with that.

[@didierverdon3482]

Oh yes ? I thought without cap, it depends on the models then, strange..

[@PlanetautoUK]

Yes, and region we expect, the V40 Cross Country does have that system, thank you Didier

[@didierverdon3482]

I heard that on the Volvo V40 2.0 D2, it was also like this.

Vehicle specs differ from country to country, that may well explain it
