The VOLVO XC40 (2017-22) 5DR SUV AWD 2.0 B4 MHEV 197 GPF SS EU6 MOMENTUM AUTO8 is a compact premium SUV, offering a higher driving position and practical five-door access without the bulk of a larger family 4x4. In the UK, it sits among sought-after alternatives to the Audi Q3 and BMW X1. The Momentum trim pairs a mild-hybrid petrol engine with an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive, making it a confident choice for mixed town and motorway journeys, wet-weather travel and family outings. A roomy cabin, useful boot and straightforward controls suit commuters, couples and small families who want comfort and a little extra versatility.
