The VOLVO V40 (2012-16) 5DR CROSS COUNTRY AWD 2.5 T5 SS 254 EU5 LUX NAV GTRON AUTO6 is a premium five-door hatchback with a tougher, raised-up look and all-wheel drive. It sits between a family hatchback and a compact SUV, offering a more distinctive alternative to mainstream models such as the Audi A3 and BMW 1 Series. With its powerful turbocharged petrol engine, automatic gearbox and confident grip, this V40 Cross Country suits drivers wanting brisk, comfortable journeys in town and on the motorway, plus reassurance on slippery roads. Navigation and luxury trim add everyday appeal. It can suit couples or small families, though its hatchback-sized cabin is less spacious than a full-size SUV. mycarcheck.com recorded 55 checks across 19 different VINs, a useful snapshot.
