2024 Volvo XC40 | Learn about the Handling, Performance, Interior and more!

The Volvo XC40 is a sleeper car! While I'm not crazy about the hatch style, there's the C40 model that has all the same features, with a sloped back end instead. You'll only find the C/XC40 with all wheel drive and it's available with either a mild hybrid gas engine or as a fully electric ride!
In this video you're going to learn the basics of the XC40. I cover off interior features and 1st/2nd row space, standard and optional technology, handling, a 0-60 road test and more!

Greetings Steve! Brand new subscriber here....found you due to recently buying a 2020 Ford Ranger XL and did a youtube search to find more info about it. Your in depth video and test driving were on point! Now I pretty much know everything about the truck that the dealership didn't cover. You seriously know your stuff!....and your presentation and style are excellent. Now I'm watching your other videos for fun and but also learning a lot! Thank you!! Really like this channel.😁👌

Thanks! Haha been a bit of a change in the way content is shot from that 2020 Ranger XL video. Appreciate all that feedback too, honestly always good to hear what people think.. good or bad. Cheers!

Steve, I've always come away with the impression that Volvo's absolute commitment to safety has over-ridden the "fun to drive" qualities in their cars. Mind you, I've never driven any Volvo, so I can only report this as what I've heard. What were your impressions driving the XC40? Compare it to the Mercedes you recently drove, or something like a Lincoln Aviator or Nautilus, which one do you like best?

[@CarsWithSteve]

I always thought the same. It's the first Volvo I've been in for over 10 years. I was driving it pretty hard at times, did a bunch of 0-60 tests and was thoroughly impressed. I liked that it's lower to the ground than the GLS 580 so the handling is solid and with the 2.0L mild hybrid, it had a surprising amount of power.
There were only a few things I wasn't crazy about.. don't like the hatch style, no Android Auto, fuel economy was a bit worse than stated numbers and having to use a 91+ octane was a minus. At this price point I'd spend the extra money to get into a 2024 Nautilus though. I really like the interior style better
