This video is the most thorough out there, no fuss, no frills, just honest clear, concise and complete information! I also appreciate your clear enunciation and pronunciation while speaking. Very easy to follow and understand for those whose native language is not necessarily English
This video helped me choose my next car - just put a hold deposit on a 2022 XC40 and I can't wait for it to get here in a few months! Thank you so much for an excellent and informative video!
Hello from Sweden (not far from the HQ of Volvo Cars in Gothenburg). I will get my brand new Volvo XC40 delivered tomorrow. This video is an excellent way of showing all the basic functions and the more advanced features of a car. I will recommend this video to my Volvo car dealership. Two thumbs up from the homeland of Volvo 👍
Incredibly done! Very lucid and paced perfectly! Just received my car last week and had a brief walkthrough because a COVID. This video makes me a ton more aware and comfortable
This was incredibly helpful, thank you for uploading it! Just picked up a 2021 and didn’t get a walk through of the features. Feeling much more confident about it now!
Best video ever. It has everything everyone needs to know about a car. Please do the same with the XC40 r design t5. Again thanks, and continue making these videos. You should also explain all the process from choosing to the car until you have it home.
I just picked up my R Design yesterday and your video helped! I appreciate the detail that wasn’t reviewed at the dealership. I’m sure I’ll refer to it in the future.
Really thorough - thank you! Please also do this type of video for the 2022 XC40 T5 Momentum. One suggestion: Please discuss the Auto Start/Stop function. You skipped over that in this current video, but otherwise, WELL DONE! :-)
Thank you SO much for the walk through. Im going to end up spec-ing out an xc40 and this was the most perfect walkthrough of the entire car. Definitely ended up learning about the car just that little bit more.
Great video! Thanks for taking the time to show us everything. This will be helpful when I go test drive the car and make a purchase. @volvo should use this video.
This was fantastic!! Nicely done. Very appreciative. I'm in the queue for an xc40 recharge (hopefully coming late Fall) and would love to see that video! Many thanks.
This is a great video! Very thorough in showing the features of the car and also how to use it. My wife currently has a 2016 Volvo XC90 T6 Momentum with the Momentum Plus, Climate, and Vision packages as well. I'm looking at potentially getting myself a XC90 as well as I'm not really much of a "SUV" guy, but after having driven my wife's new-to-us XC90 (she previously had the 2008 Volvo XC90), we now "fight" to see who gets to drive the Volvo. :) Thank you. And yes, the Pilot Assist (1.0) is great, even if it was limited to only upto 50 km (31 mph) as I've used it on a few occasions when driving through heavy city traffic. Fantastic video, Aaron. You guys should do more of these.
Wouldn‘t it make more sense if the gear shifters logic would be the other way around? 2x forward for drive und 2x back for reverse? Am I missing something here
Hi Pascal, thank you for your comment. That raises a good point for sure! I'm thinking the logic was to try and mirror a standard automatic gate where you would pull backwards to go from P-R-N-D. Thanks!
Very useful, I have the Inscription pro (UK), picked up a couple of things from your video , if you ever do a part 2 a bit on individual driver settings would be good and the way the keys are linked to each driver. Great idea wish my dealer had done this.
I am a windsurfer and fell in love with this car but was wondering how I would deal with the key situation. Now I know, they've thought of everything. Was looking for an excuse not to buy this car cause it's expensive but now I'm stumped...
@@aaronflanagan7105 Nah, I’ll just wait a little longer and save up for a new one. I’ll lose my sleep every time I park outside but you can’t have it all I guess. Fantastic video btw, you’re a good professional.
@@rounick28 thank you! Really appreciate the view. I'm planning on incorporating the rest of the Volvo line here in 2021 in other videos. We just got our Recharge fully electric XC40 that I want to do a video on so stay tuned!
Thanks, this is very useful for prospective buyers. I have a question: do you have to manually enable auto high beam and auto wipers every time you start the vehicle? Thanks.
According to the owners manual auto high beam has a memory function, so no need to activate it every time. Auto wipers can be activated permanently in the settings menue on the center display. At least for the European market (I'm from Austria). First hand experience hopefully in two to three weeks, when my XC40 T5 twin engine will be delivered... ;-)
Hi Luke - there is a setting to enable auto wipers in the MyCar menu. Auto High Beam will need to be activated each time you would like to utilize the feature.
@@cosettapessa6417 Great! 😁It's fun to drive, nearly unlimited power (a few days after I got my car I overtook a agriculture vehicle going about 40 km/h. I ended up going 130 km/h within few seconds with the legal speed limit at 100... 😉). Badly I can't charge the car where I live (arpartment without a dedicated parking lot) and have to walk 12 minutes twice to a public charger, but I manage to drive most of the city rides pure electric. The mileage on the (quiet!) gas engine without electric drive (empty battery or battery on hold) is about 5,0 l/100km (47 mpg). Would I buy the car again? Definitly yes! 😁Or the pure electric version (which was still not available back when I ordered mine)...
Florida here -- just picked up my XC40 R-Design -- Very thorough here. I had a couple questions you answered them. My dealer -- though good -- since I had an XC60 before -- thought I'd know most of this -- I learned one thing I never knew even with that -- which was like an OMG moment. And on this one the DRIVE MODE.. I even asked.. they said -- it's all controlled in the SENSUS system. And I was NOT looking for the drive mode button right there next to the radio buttons. Yeh, the INDIVIDUAL DRIVE is in the SENSUS. Maybe they were confused by my question. And I didn't even see the drive mode button.. til you pointed it out. AH HA moment. Embarrassed to know it's RIGHT THERE in front of my face.(almost) -- glad I found this!
At least in the US, 91 or higher is rec for the T5 petrol engine. I would assume if you have the petrol version in AUS that it would be the same. Always refer back to your owners manual if unsure. Thanks!
At least in the us there is no hybrid version of the xc40, so the answer to your question would be no, but they are planning to release the xc40 recharge which is a completely electric vehicle
Sorry I missed this earlier but saw it and wanted to answer. This particular XC40 is ICE (internal combustion engine) so it won't have any all-electric capability. There are plans for a hybrid version of the XC40 in the next couple of years however. Right now the details are pretty scant for us in the United States. The XC40 Recharge is coming to the US in the first quarter of 2021 as Volvo's 1st BEV (battery electric vehicle). That car will have a full 400 HP & 486 lb-ft with as much as 208 miles total range. The PHEV (plug-in hybrid electric) version is slated to follow later on...maybe as far as 2022-2024. If it is anything like our current T8 power trains, it should offer drivers around 20-25 mi of pure electric range. Thanks for watching!
They are cars for different purposes. The Rdes has 10% stiffer suspension for a sportier ride and handling. The Inscription will err more on the side of luxury and ride a touch softer. Inscription models also have more chrome and real wood trim in the cabin. When it's all said and done, it comes down to how you like the asthetics, sporty or luxury? I think the Rdes seats w nubuck suede are more comfortable and I prefer the contrasting roof colors to the chrome on the Inscription. I would choose the Rdesign.
@@aaronflanagan7105 oh one more thing, how do I know if my car has the cross-traffic alert breaking? Mine has cross-traffic alert but you said something about cross-traffic alert with auto break is there a difference?
You remote start via the On Call app up to a distance of 300KM. The app also allows you to lock and unlock the doors & tailgate, send navigation destinations to the Sensus screen, schedule service and request road side assistance.
I don't wanna start a argument but I'm rlly curious, you said "volvo is not a swedish car". What exactly makes you come with this statement? Just because it may be built somewhere else that doesn't make it a "not swedish car"
@@Trig672 My mistake, you are 100% correct. I would like to end with quoting Car & Driver per their 40K test of a new XC60: For those who see a "Made in China" label and immediately assume the product is subpar, the Volvo XC60-much like the Apple iPhone-proves that quality is the product of rigorous engineering and disciplined processes, not the country of manufacture. Volvo pulled off the difficult aspect of its transition to new ownership. The company engineered thousands of new parts and assembles them into luxurious and stylish vehicles in plants around the world, all without compromising quality.
This was a very good video for someone who wants to purchase one of these cars. Thank you very much for the time you spent in doing this

I'm thinking of ordering a xc40 soon! Your video helped me a lot to see the tiny details of this amazing car! Love the video!
The best all detailed car functions explanation video I've seen. Great job!!
I just picked up my R Design yesterday and your video helped! I appreciate the detail that wasn’t reviewed at the dealership. I’m sure I’ll refer to it in the future.
I was really fixed on the Toyota Rav4 Hybrid Cruiser but after looking at the Volvo XC40 T5, I think I might go with the latter. What a beautiful car.
How is it going?
I just bought a preowned 2019 R Design, so I'm figuring it out on my own. This is extremely helpful! Well done.
Getting my vehicle next week. Im in South Africa. This is so helpful! Thank you.
Thank you. This video was informative before I get my XC40 and you explained everything awesomely. True master!
A great video, thanks a lot!

Very helpful. Watched this in Melbourne, Australia while waiting for the delivery of my T5 R Design. Thanks.
I am thinking of ordering one and you helped me a lot. Greetings from Germany. I would never think that a guy in the usa will help me buying a car 🤣.
Greetings and thanks for watching! The XC40 is a great little vehicle and I'm sure you would be very happy with it. I hope you order one!
Thank you so much. Getting this car in 1 Month (Germany) and have learned so much. Going to reccomend our Dealer here to do the same. Danke schön!
Danke!
You have totally sold me on this vehicle!😊
Great Job, very helpful for new owners!!! Thank you
Almost certainly getting one as my next car. Inscription Pro, B4P.
Great advice about the keyless entry. Thank you and great video. 👏👏
Thank Bud, best handover video... I wish my dealer have done such great work like you. I have learnt more stuff about.my car.
Great video, our Volvo will be delivered in 3 days and I really appreciated the level of details you gave about the car. Greetings from Istanbul
How is it going?
Great video! Thanks for taking the time to show us everything. This will be helpful when I go test drive the car and make a purchase. @volvo should use this video.
Are those ambient lights with changing colors standard on all XC40s?
Just bought one of these today here in London, UK - this is extremely helpful, thank you!!
Awesome! Congrats on your new Volvo!

Congrats on the Volvo! It's a great car and you're going to love it. Thx for watching!
Thank you so much, Aaron! This video is so helpful, and I' sure I'll watch it at least several times more. Terrific job!
So audio in 'new XC40' is just limited to radio stations, can one not stream from eg Tidal or Qubuz for specific tracks?
Great video. Volvo corporate should hire you to do videos!! and your boss should give you a raise! Which packages are on this car?
Thanks! This car is the Inscription trim w the advanced package (360 cam, active bending lights, high pressure headlight cleaners).
When you turn on the auto high beams will the auto headlights stay on
Very useful, I have the Inscription pro (UK), picked up a couple of things from your video , if you ever do a part 2 a bit on individual driver settings would be good and the way the keys are linked to each driver. Great idea wish my dealer had done this.
Does yours come with harman kardon as standard or is it a chosen add on😬🤔
@@gonzodetroitify it’s an add on, I went with the standard sound system .
Nice video! But what is that yellow dot on the screen?
Ha! It's a screen protector that comes w the car from the factory. I always let my clients remove it so I don't leave any prints on their new screen.
Looking forward to getting my xc40 pro in 2 weeks, great video . Thanks

Does it have a David?
I have a 2019 CX60-t6 and I love it. I get about 9 l for 100 km. The only downfall
Does the trunk floor mat shown in this video fold? Trying to decide between Volvo vs. Weathertec
The trunk mat will fold but will be initially very stiff when it's new.
Went with the weathertec based on quality and past performance. Love the trunk separator concept but have never used it.
Can you drive this in electric mode only during stop-and-go traffic jams?
