Volvo
has been very successful with its midsize XC60 and full-size XC90 SUVs. Now,
the automaker is adding a compact to the lineup: the 2019 Volvo XC40. The
smaller crossover is poised to take the industry by storm with next-generation
technology and eye-catching Swedish styling. And it’s available now, at the Wynn Group
in Norristown PA.
Introducing
the 2019 Volvo XC40 Momentum
The
XC40 is a compact luxury SUV with a youthful spirit. Its smaller size makes it
fuel efficient and easy to maneuver. Yet, there’s no compromise on versatility
as the cabin offers plenty of space and handy features. All-wheel drive is also
available for exceptional traction in horrid weather.
Three
trim levels are offered on the 2019 model: Momentum, R-Design and Inscription.
The R-Design puts forth a performance-oriented demeanor, while the Inscription
offers top-of-the-line luxury. Then there’s the Momentum, which although
considered the base model, is full of vigor and panache.
Styling and features
Volvo
refers to the styling of the XC40 Momentum as “contemporary Scandinavian
design.” The compact SUV sports taunt body lines along with gloss black window
frames. Signature Volvo “Thor’s Hammer” LED headlights are also onboard, as is
a large angled grille.
The
five-passenger interior features a minimalistic design paired with the latest
technology. Leather upholstery,
automatic climate control and ambient lighting are all standard fare.
Meanwhile, a power liftgate supplies access to the expansive, 47.2 cu. ft.
cargo area. The rear compartment features a foldable, removable floor, and the
60/40 rear seats fold flat to accommodate oversized items.
Throughout
the cabin you’ll find hints of Volvos innovative Smart Storage technology.
There’s space for all your essentials, thanks to touches like a foldout hook
for bags, numerous storage bins and waste bin.
One of
the most forward-thinking attributes tied to the 2019 Volvo
XC40 is the Car by Volvo subscription plan. The bundle includes
insurance and maintenance built into the SUV’s monthly payment.
Performance
All
XC40 models, including the Momentum, are built on either the T4 front-wheel
drive platform or the T5 all-wheel drive platform. The sole engine option is a turbocharged
2.0L four-cylinder that puts out 248 hp and 258 lb.-ft. in T5 models (187 hp
and 221 lb.-ft. in T4 models). An 8-speed automatic transmission is used across
the board.
Technology
Volvo
is known for its technological prowess and the XC40 is no exception. The
compact SUV boasts a 9-inch Sensus touchscreen infotainment system, onboard
Wi-Fi and more. There’s also a 12.3” Digital Driver Display that makes all
information easy to view.
Safety
Like
the rest of the XC40 lineup, the Momentum comes standard with Volvo’s City
Safety suite of features. In the bundle, you’ll find the latest advanced driver
assistance functions such as forward collision warning with automatic braking,
a rearview camera and lane departure warning with mitigation. The Volvo On Call
Communications system is also onboard.
