Nordic elegance not only conquers our wardrobe this season, but also our roads. Until now, the Volvo XC40 had been limited, in terms of sales, because it did not have an economically attractive option. Although it is a premium firm, and its refined interior proves it, few buyers consider buying this Swedish model in Spain. Luckily, the firm has heard the prayers of lovers of automotive minimalism and has launched an irrefutable launch. It is the new Volvo XC40 T2, with a 129 hp engine and a scandal price until the end of the year. This compact size and elegant SUV can be yours from 23,700 euros until December, at which time it will cost 31,450 euros. In this way, the Swedish firm brings its product to a public with less purchasing power, with exquisite tastes and concerned about the safety of its members.
The Volvo XC40 is the entry model to the manufacturer’s SUV range, but this does not mean that it reaches a minimum. This crossover has pioneering safety equipment in the category, with special fixation for those systems that prevent accidents. And it is that, together with Subaru, they are one of the manufacturers most consistent with their objectives and the next challenge for the Nordics is to ensure that no one dies, or is seriously injured, in a Volvo . Some of the functions, which can be found in the basic equipment of the XC40, are: Attenuation of collisions with the opposite lane, Detection of the road edge (involuntary lane change) and Protection in case of leaving the road. It also features the emergency braking included in Volvo City Safety and the Volvo on Call emergency call.
Another important detail of this access version, the XC40 T2, is its engine. It is a turbocharged three-cylinder petrol block, which is part of the Drive-E family of engines. It produces 129 hp of power over 5,800 laps and, despite not being a flashy engine, it meets the needs of the average user. Its behavior is fine, with hardly any vibrations and a quite pleasant sound for a three-cylinder. We tell you more in the gallery.
