For the first time the volvo V40 also comes with a pedestrian airbag, an absolute novelty on the car market. In addition to the 436.9 cm long Swedes are also plenty of other security features, such as a lane departure warning, the City Safety system of the second generation, a speed limit display, an adaptive cruise control, the Rear Cross Traffic Alert, or a fatigue Warner available.
The acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h, the weakest V40 done in 12.3 seconds, top speed is 185 km / h In practice this means a very lively driving experience, and also out on mountainous roads yet plenty of power from below.
Come to the light steering, which can be adjusted depending on the model in three different levels of lightness, and the soft-switching to 6-speed manual gearbox. With the chassis and suspension engineers have a good compromise between sportiness and comfort found.
The consumption of this is very economical. With only 3.6 liters per 100 kilometers to settle for the V40, which corresponds to CO2 emissions of only 94 grams per kilometer. The positive values of consumption, we could almost reach in the first test ride around Verona, in the mountainous stages, of course, you must take into account one or two liters more.
The interior design combines a sporty feel and comfort. The completely redesigned valves appear at first glance very futuristic, but they show all the important features of good.
The driver can choose between three different representations. In Eco mode, the emphasis is placed on the presentation of efficiency, in Eleganze mode on a beautiful display, and in Sport mode is transformed to the speedometer and tachometer, the valves are illuminated with a red border.
Very comfortable and the seat comfort including the adjustable armrest is in front. The panoramic glass roof space appear larger the positive feeling that has broken generous, especially in the front row.
The space for rear passengers is tight and sporty cut the trunk volume is not having a capacity of 335 liters come just great. Thus, the Volvo V40 is designed more to lifestyle-oriented customers looking for a luxurious and sporty compact car.
The powerful petrol engine and the two top-diesel can also be ordered with a 6-speed automatic, which we were also able to learn in the two top models.
The 6-speed automatic transmission always has the right gear ready, shifting is not as quickly as with some other gear. If you want to sort the programs themselves can switch to sport mode and then switching via the right stick for the course.
Very good work and the security systems. The Lane Assist takes a while back on the right track, and the new Rear Cross Traffic Alert warns motorists when pushing back against that approach up to 30 meters from the vehicle. Also worth mentioning is praising the City Safety system, which is now up to 50 km / h and can reduce or prevent accidents by much.
The Volvo V40 can be ordered from July, the delivery of customer vehicles will start as of September 2012. Those who still tolerated by the end of the year, can then be ordered with the V40 T5 the most powerful version, which is 254-hp Volvo available from December 2012.
