Volvo V40 Cross Country: expensive, dynamic, compact. New Volvo V40 - Cross Country version

Everything for the sake of it, the cream of people, becomes sensible and functional. We called to shift their turboti to technology, and the engineers are looking at the indifferent people-years, to work on their devices and mechanisms, universal and smart. This trend is true in the whole world and in the world of cars: cars are overgrown with chips and gadgets, for the help of such water, it’s not hard to turn the handle of the loudness of the radio in the cabin. The new crossover Volvo V40 Cross Country is just one of them - it promises to deliver you wherever you want with complete relaxation and not on autopilot.

For whom it is necessary to simply move the car in a complete set close to the maximum. With a starting price of 1,189,000 rubles for a front-wheel drive 180-horsepower car, our test device costs more twice as much: 2,179,999. zagalne vrazhennya vіd it may not change. And the base V40 Cross Country with a full drive and the same, like ours, 213-horsepower engine costs 1,279,000 rubles. Bad proposition, but how can the V40 Cross Country appear on the right?

The Volvo V40 Cross Country brings maximum respect on the road. From the other skin machine, I looked at the infection, once every two days, I drank in the parking lot. Those representatives of Volvo seem that the novelty called out a rather strong excitement among customers, and a solid black was already following it

You can see in your eyes, that in this car there are a lot of original and beautiful details like a call, so it is in the middle. The artists have done their best to showcase the pensioner's image of the brand. Swivel pipes, ribbed sidewalls, swell spoiler, cheeky hood, chrome-plated rails. So what's the point here - marvel at the photograph! Everything is cool: the center console is wider in the outside (even if the solution is not new), the interior is illuminated from the sides, and the tidy is a little non-interactive of a miserable iPad. Is it bad to know the width of the CD drive? The axis is out, on the stick of gray and streaked panels of the central console!

Ale є i prorahunki, and stench rush, persh for everything, space in the salon. The front seats are installed suspended, and at my height of 176 cm, the space above my head with the armchair lowered down is minimal. Even if you don’t like to sit on the bed, then get ready to close the top with the opening of the eyepiece over the water doors and the upholstery of the stele. Possibly, the problem can often be solved by looking at a luxurious panoramic house for 33,000 rubles. One more angel with a bowl of water is a massive gathering of the “podium”, on which the front seats are installed. It is impossible to change the position with a path to move under the new left leg.

Composite problems continue to merge when knowing the back row. The sofa itself is sturdy and equipped with a classy cushion in the middle of the pillow, a comfortable cushion, and also folded with cushions. Ale schob tsim all enjoy, there you need to eat a little. The axis here begins to be folded: the opening of the rear doors is narrow, and there is not much space for the rear passengers. And if you want to get out of the car, beautifully trim the door sills (option for 14,900 rubles, for others) to please your pants.

The newly painted chameleon tidy is available in the City warehouse package for 75,200 rubles. A similar solution is step by step to become fashionable: it can be seen, for example, in a representative Jaguar XJ limousine and on other cars of other brands. “Painting the center” has greatly untied the hands of the creators of Volvo: you can work with the accessory cluster, all the same as with your smartphone: for the beginning, change the theme by choosing three available ones. To change like a color scale of accessories and their crosses, so they are mutually enhanced and the type of fermentation. Want more contrast? Be a caress, coolly vіdpovіdny menu item. And here there is no banal end of the on-board computer: you can change it by calling it, or with a couple of clicks you can enter it into the main combination of accessories with other sounds.

  • Where do you put your mobile phone in the Volvo cabin? If not in a glass box, then in a niche at the central console. But for the rest of the year, the design is zroblen to soar, and the polichka is ripped after it. That's why you can't reach for the phone on the go. Why are you hurt on the safety of Volvo - do not swear your hands and swear Bluetooth!
  • The glove box has a usb slot and a 12-volt outlet. Ale, why did I tell you about it?

We continue setting up the V40 SS for ourselves. Respect cunningly zahovani everywhere light bulbs m'yakoy pіdsvіchuvannya cabin. The lower and upper zones are creased okremo - you can make it brighter or dimmer. And if you create a mood diode in a stele console, you can make fun in any color of merriment. Considering the fact that the memory of the electric seat can already be three presets, it’s no wonder. And the axis is an important remote control for music and climate - it’s cool to wind up after everyone else. True, for this beautiful option you will have to pay a little extra.

Like everything in this car, the remote control panel of the remote control is “designer”. The transmission selector handle also pulls on the local scale (and at the same time the high-tech joystick of the Toyota Prius). And to look at the mirror of the rear view - it looks like an expensive thin-frame TV from the rest of the line as a fashion brand

The engine of the T5 series here can have five cylinders with a total volume of 2 liters, and turbocharging provides a capacity of 213 “horses” and 300 N m. packages of everything, as little as possible. Perevirimo, chi stitch the crossover tightness. So for the eyes! It’s easy to see, now there is an option to choose a 249-horsepower 2.5-liter T5 with 350 N m of thrust. The start of the month does not affect, but the axis rises more and more on the move: the zashlyakhovik shoots in a straight line no hotter than hot hatches, and passport numbers of 7.2 seconds to a hundred will not give you any doubts! The gearbox here is the TF80-SD hydrotransformer automaton, type Aisin. It has six gears and sports and manual modes are available. The first one, and the second one, are controlled only by a selector on the central tunnel - none of the steering wheels are important. Only a few Skodas, which are driven by the V40 Cross Country galvanized engine.

So what about corners? Axis is not all smooth here. For a short time, the engineers did not care to bring the electro-pidsiluvach (for an additional payment of wines, you can have three installations of a zusill of a whistle-blower link) to the ideal: to finish the kermo itself springy, chuyny and finish “short”, but in the corners the donut is very empty, and the link of the water is cerovany wheels are used. And the machine is not the same one that grumbles on this topic, but on the aphids, the roaring and galmivnoy dynamics of all the fools are all the same. That y pіdvіska here to do it schіlna, schob zabezpechuvat indecent and zrozumіlu kerovanіst i zovsіm small rolls.

I want to know why and why: in the light of the poshlyahovik, it’s definitely worth the greater energy output of the drive! On top of that, to fix the anterior and posterior limbs, there are three unsatisfactory ones: in order to understand, it is necessary to slip through a pair of speed bumps. The front wheels in the middle of the reasonable zhorstka take on the edge, causing unevenness. But if you reach the rear on the right, the body shakes the unstoppable uppercut from the decal with damped knocks next. Duzhe zhorstko nalashtovany back! To that, in front of the “sunbeds” behind the kerm of the all-terrain V40 Cross Country, you will be playing in the same way, like lovers of understated cars.

Why is everything so messed up with filthy roads? Pozashlyakhova їzda on the Volvo V40 CC, at first glance, may be an oxymoron. Well, how can you have a geometry with 145 mm clearance and a long front overhang? That hіd pіdvіski, like z'yasuvalosya in the very cob vyprobuvan pose asphalt, minimal. Ale, not everything is so simple: first, the V40 CC is equipped with the Haldex full drive system of the last, fifth generation, but in another way, the car can boast of a commanding geometry of the rear part and induce the presence of electronics, insuring against fire when descending . Pereverimo, how everything works!

In the process of calling to build on the legends of the city of vivishing one of the rear wheels, it is negligent. To the right, Haldex 5! Ale, the car should stand on the floor and turn around the wheel. In order to move further, you need to turn on the sports mode of the robotic stabilization system (although not with one dot - for whom you happen to dig into the onboard system) dosit vpevneno vilazit іz zas_dki. Povnotsіnne diagonal vivіshuvannya delivers a little more trouble, but also does not paralyze the car completely.

Following the results of a walk along the snowy bayraks, the verdict, having become sensible to do it quickly: the road decently turned sour, it is unlikely that the V40 CC technological drive would become a serious shift, but the axle poked into the kolії, on the narrower and іnshі іnshі kolії, scho vimagayut good, modest geometry road clearance and a front bumper, behind which an eye is an eye, it will surely ignite your fuse. In any case, the modest walks of the pidviski are fully compensated by the well-worn full drive of the rest of the generation. The Haldex GenV coupling, as a front assembly, preemptively distributes the torque based on the signals from the sensor array. Structural modifications lead to the fact that the vuzol has become lighter and more compact for the rahunka, in the drive of the package of the friction special valve, the replacement of the solenoid with a small battery.

By paying for the extra Volvo electronics, you can get a cool and blue upgrade on your V40 Cross Country. We have not yet created a full-fledged autopilot, we can use adaptive cruise controls, all-round radars and other car parkers, as if it made life easier. The radar in the radiator solution (show respect for the main plastic area) checks for pavement of the road in front of the car, and the camera at the upper part of the frontal fold is marked with signs. All the brethren of "electronics" are relatively sawing the sharpening of an hour of travel, but if you care not to take away your joys for the better, then all of them can be deactivated, for the benefit of nalashtuvan vistacha.

The camera inappropriately recognizes road signs, but it’s not enough to rely on the work of the robot. The locality won’t think that we are in Europe, and the stars take the exchange 50, and the signs are skipped. Ale, in a fair way, then it’s a sin to bark electronics, if you yourself don’t start your mind, it’s allowed to drive along our roads with some kind of speed. And the axis with the Moscow rosette, winding up with snow and ford, the piece of the eye copes badly. The system for following the swarms of people works adequately and at the same time unobnoxiously: vibrations on the steering wheel do not work, wanting to stray for an hour with the unevenness of the wheels.

One more cіkava igrashka is the adaptive cruise control system. This functionality allows you not only to trim behind the car in front on the highway, but also to stow in traffic jams on low speeds. The car itself rolls and speeds up, as if it didn’t hit the bottom of the sound - then you happen to break the gas pedal with a light dot or press the keys on the cerm, after which the V40 Cross Country will independently regulate the speed from the steering wheel in front of the car. The radar works better, lower points, and as a whole you can get stuck in the minds of the capital's shtovhanini. Just one thing: the reserve, which Volvo stocks in front, allows especially sound waters "in Moscow" to get in front of you. Another system of complete automatic galvanization, but also tests more briefly in “laboratory” minds, which are obligatory to be worked out in the next hour.

On the 25th of June 2019, after the light premiere at the Paris Motor Show, within the framework of the Tizhny Fashion Show in Moscow, the Russian presentation of the Volvo V40 Cross Country car was held. Gostiny Dvor was presented with modifications of the new model (and announced prices for them), as if from a fierce offensive fate, you can come to Volvo Cars dealerships.

Having conceived a car to promote the market segment "C", the Swedish designers did not fool their heads with folding technical solutions. Taking the Volvo V40 hatchback as a basis, the engineers simply increased the road clearance and added the rear wheel drive to the Haldex swivel clutch. In exactly the same way, the creations of the Volvo V70 Cross Country, which appeared in 1997, were universal. Transferred and folded, so front-wheel drive, modification of the Volvo V40 Cross Country.

Other features of the V40 Cross Country include the Hill Descent Control system, which controls the speed when descending, as well as the Hill Hold function, which makes it easier to collapse uphill. The first zgadanih technologies are promoted only for the fully enchanted version of Cross County.


Reshta vіdmіnnosti avіdmіnnosti avіdіnnosti vіdvishchenої prokhіdnostі vіd zvichay svočaim - so, like lining on bumpers and sills of the body or vertically installed daytime running lights, wear, in my opinion, more decorative, lower functional character.


Acts of folding are blamed on the appointment of new items for road clearance. One of the independent gerels is called 173 mm. Virobnik, on the other hand, only talks about those that the clearance of the V40 Cross Country is 40 mm higher than that of a road car. Ale, in such a state of mind, becomes unreasonable, in a way that the height of these cars can only be lifted by 13 mm, which is equal to 1458 and 1445 mm, apparently. Width and length for both models are specified the same - 4370 and thousand weights two mm. However, there are other inaccuracies in the factory specifications, so I recommend that you respect it.


At the same time, Volvo Cars engineers did not begin to complicate their own tasks, fahіvtsі z marketing slandered about those, sob not to obscure life with difficulties for the choice of Russian purchases. In our market, there are only two modifications of the Volvo V40 Cross Country - front-wheel drive, with a T4 gasoline engine, and a version with full drive and a T5 gasoline engine, however, in three trim levels - Kinetic, Momentum and Summum. What is wanted, behind these names, is not yet clear. Apparently, the price of the front-wheel drive version starts at 1.189.000 rubles, and modifications of the T5 AWD - from 1.279.000 rubles.


4-cylinder petrol engine T4 with bezporednіm podskuvannyam paliva and turbocharging develops the intensity of 132 kW (180 h.p.) at 5000 rpm and a torque of 300 Nm in a wide range - from 2700 to 5000 rpm.

The improved characteristics of the motor in the 6-speed automatic transmission Geartronic allow the car with a weight of +1452 kg to reach speed of 100 km / year in 8.7 seconds. The value of the maximum speed is not mentioned by Volvo company according to corporate rules.

The Volvo V40 Cross Country T4 version is more economical. Won slow down for 100 km 10.4 liters of paliva - in the locality, 5.8 liters - on the highway and 7.5 liters - in the mixed cycle. Rivne wikipedia CO2 becomes 174 g/km.


Then the modification of the Volvo V40 Cross Country T5 AWD is richer. Up to 100 km per year for a car equipped with a 5-cylinder gasoline engine with a volume of 2497 cubic meters. cm, with bezposerednіm podskuvannyam paliva and turbocharging, as well as automatic transmission Geartronic and drive chotirokh wheels, vstigaє rozіgnatisya in 6.4 seconds.

Zrozumіlo, tight motor, all-wheel drive transmission and 60 kg weight of the machine lead to an increased appetite. 11.6 l (in the field), 6.4 l (on the highway) and 8.3 l (in the mixed cycle) - these are the values ​​​​of the fire in the T5 AWD modification.

In addition, about which I rozpov_v earlier, Cross Country is seen in the road version of the Volvo V40 with the original honeycomb radiator grilles, anodized black frames that frame all the windows of the car, black bodies of the outer mirrors and roof rails. Until then, the car will be available with the option of having a panoramic view and a windshield boost.


Especially for the Volvo V40 Cross Country model, the designers of the Scandinavian company have developed GEMINUS (16-inch), LARENTA (17-inch), MEFITIS (18-inch) wheels made of aluminum alloy. All the stinks are chanted in two variants of zabarvlennya - silvery and sirom. As an accessory, you can add discs in black viconan.


Proponuyutsya for a car with increased traffic and new body colors: Raw Cooper metallic, Biarritz Blue metallic, Amazon Blue metallic, Misty Blue metallic, Nightshade Gray metallic. And for the upholstery of the seats, you can choose one of the seven options for the skins, among which Volvo marketers see brown Espresso Brown. Vtіm, also transferred and two-coloured processing of the interior.

In all other cars, the V40 Cross Country, which has an increased capacity, does not look like the road version of the Volvo V40.

In the V40 Cross Country, zocrema, the system of dynamic stabilization and traction control (DSCT) has been developed, which includes a number of technologies that improve both safety and driving efficiency. First, after the assistance of the body roll sensor, the system detects the tendency to skid the car at the moment it shows the first sign. Zavdyaki to the position of the machine is corrected with greater accuracy. On the other hand, the Corner Traction Control function ensures that the Volvo V40 Cross Country runs smoothly and does not pass corners.


As a matter of fact, the Volvo V40 Cross Country car has been developed in the latest water safety with the philosophy of IntelliSafe, and to that it is equipped with the rest of the equipment in the field of safety and water maintenance. The list of new technologies can, for example, include an airbag for the protection of water and an airbag for the protection of pedestrians, as well as a system for facilitating parking plus the function of recognizing road signs. The Crimean car Volvo V40 Cross Country is equipped with advanced technology for detecting pedestrians with the function of automatic galvanization and the upgraded City Safety system, as now it is possible to improve wind speed at speeds up to 50 km / year. The reinvention of innovations makes it possible to call the Volvo V40 the most intelligent security model in the entire history of the Swedish company.

It is impossible not to guess about those that the designers replaced the traditional shield of accessories on the Volvo V40 model with a rare crystal display. Now you can choose one of the three options for displaying information to your own likeness. Such an accessory panel is handy, so that it is unnecessary to display it on the screen in this other situation. Similar to the maximum simplicity, attempts were made by experts, as they developed the new Volvo Sensus information system. At the name of the system, all information is displayed on a color monitor, pinned at the upper part of the accessory panel. You can manage all the functions of Volvo Sensus both by using additional buttons, which are placed on the kerm wheel, and through the controls, which can be directly under the monitor. In addition, there is a remote control panel. And the mobile add-on allows you to make contact with your car in remote access mode.

So, just like a road version of the Volvo V40, the designers of the V40 Cross Country did not forget about such a prose, but no less important task, like a well-placed vantage in the trunk. The V40 Cross Country is equipped with a number of checkboxes, a box for storing other items, a supplementary log, one of two options for a sliding net (soft or steel), as well as the “System for optimizing the luggage switch in the luggage compartment”, , a partition for under-luggage and a belt for yogo fastening.


Like a bachite, the difference between the standard and all-terrain version of the Volvo V40 is minimal. Therefore, it is no surprise that Volvo Cars decided to supply Russia with the V40 Cross Country model. With the improvement of specific road minds, there can’t be a sense to propagate a front-wheel drive car with a secluded road clearance, if there is a version with a higher clearance and a full-private transmission.


Behind the great fair, the Volvo V40 Cross Country can’t be called a crossover, but such a car can’t be called a badass anymore. So what? Due to the compact size, high exhaustion of the engine and polypshed prokhodnosti, the V40 Cross Country is unsuitable for colorful operation in the metropolis with the improvement of regular forklifts outside the city limits. The axle is only Skoda, but the versions with diesel engines will get worse. However, in any case, I would call this model something else - Volvo V40 Cross City.

The Volvo V40 hatchback in Russia is sold only in the "pozashlyahovo" modification of the Cross Country - with a 12 mm increase in road clearance, larger wheels, smaller bumpers and railings on the daha. Prices start from 1 million 189 thousand rubles for the front-wheel drive version of the T4 with a two-liter turbo engine (180 hp), a six-speed automatic, with airbags, climate control, a CD-receiver and the City Safety system. And for the "priorka" we took a hatchback in the modification T5 with forcing up to 213 k.s. engine and rear drive. In the basic configuration, such a five-door cost is 1 million 279 thousand rubles, and we also have a new set of options: a leather interior, an electric front seat, a cursed breath, a navigator, a rear-view camera, bi-xenon headlights and more, why the car becomes more expensive219 ruble

Volvo V40 is the most stylish among all Volvo models. Representing itself as a mid-range station wagon and hatchback, it has a dynamic silhouette, which is not typical for the Swedish brand. Foldable, ale harmonic body plastic gives the car sportiness and slight aggression. The V40 is especially good in the rear - the slightly curved rear lights with light-emitting diodes and the large spoiler over the rear doors give it a special charm, and the black insert under the rear fold continues the tradition of outrageous C30. From the eternal family values ​​- forward to youth dynamism! And the dynamics of which hatchback does not fit. The expansion is tight and smooth, with diesel pressure, kermo is “short” and precise, and all other mechanisms in any car are practical. Hiba scho pіdvіska harsh, those low-profile tires are bad to endure with yams and cracks of our roads.

Inter'єr - the realm of Scandinavian design. Simplicity of forms and reverent attention to the material brought to perfection. The traditional "floating" console of the panel of accessories with chotirma "twists" and "man" of the climate control system is covered with a whole keyboard of buttons. On the go, play on your “piano” not only unhanded, but not safe. There is a large number of different upgrades and a multi-stage nature of the necessary ones, in my opinion, to be super-efficient with the vaunted safety of Volvo cars. Obviously, an airbag for a walker and an automatic galvanization that protects you, it’s great, but with the wide front and rear racks, it’s easy to intersect the look, the video camera is swayed by the wind, and the system of the buckle behind the socket opens up the sensor. Of the most popular buildings in the Russian minds, perhaps, the BLIS system and the recognition of a walker in darkness.

Progress doesn't stop, and the Volvo V40 is on top of it. There is no more shkoduvaty, that our country is still bіla pіdnіzhzhya.

Leonid Golovanov

Volvo. I roll. Chi is not a cowboy according to Maliy Spaska, but a man. Which sound proud. Especially - in such silence, yak was destroyed by the unvoiced "uncouth" five-cylinder rumble of the Volvo turbo engine.

It would have been given, a "hatch" golf class on the basis of the front Focus for two million rubles - a divine beacon, Alice in the land of miracles, a robbery on a broad day. Alemeni is not imaginative. More than that - I'm welcome. Behind the Volvo V40 XC kerm (let's just say the Cross Country brand here) it's premium. And on the right, we call it not in numerical safety systems: take away all the radars and cameras, Volvo’s “forty” will be left with more inferior competitors to the cars of the “great German trio”. The age of the "loner" BMW is richly simple, in the Audi A3 it is too rich in the Golf, in the Mercedes A-class it is even more. And then ... Focus? About what you see - tse trohi of the Volvo S60. Gusto. Hydnist. Tight-fitting with a skin, the kermo is light, ale and informative: in the world - almost a road, in the world - isolation from the outer world. In a straight line, the car went dumb itself, in turns - a new order of water and a equal introversion of tempers. Pushing rozgіn - za pіznennyam, ale gentlemanly. "Automatic" is smooth, pіdvіska pіdіbgana i energоєmna. Normal ground clearance. New ghost. І radar cruise control, which can guide you in the area.

And I don’t know why they called Steve Mattin. Nine wines in Ladi, but the V40 is the last child in the garden of the chief designer of Volvo, and I remember that when they came to the booth of their many robots at the Paris Motor Show, they showed a new "forty". Nothing for you to worry about - well done, Steve.

And I, maybe, traveled in such a car, if only there were three sports ones. I cheaper.

Illya Khlebushkin

I don’t understand why this Volvo has become a Cross Country? None for country, none more for cross wines. And let's not get veletensky wheels and non-farbovanized door sills and bumpers are supposed to be seen as a crossover, but ordinary light road clearance will not let you enter Oman.

Goddammit yoga Gran Turismo? I’m calling by: the trunk is rather modest for distant, expensive ones, and under a hefty sunroof, it’s more like a dokat-militia.

Maybe Family-Room? The situation in the middle is calm, although in the spirit of Scandinavian techno-minimalism, the materials are rich in the back, that and the support of the safety - about the same. It was no longer possible to “clean up” on the “soar” console - to spread out the bulk of the company’s blind keyboards and replace it similar to a cheap version from a Chinese drug store, an important gearbox with a selector scheme.

Hі, Family-Room tezh not pіdіyde. On the back row it's tight, \u200b\u200b on the tіm'ya tisne dah, the feet get stuck in the trap under the front seats - and navit my fourteenth syllable about the low opening of the doors.

Axis, zdaetsya, pidshukav: Town Streets! Consider yourself the most visible fish in the shackle of the Moscow jamb, only navigations look back and laka with red spalahs and a siren, the system of forward movement-Noven. If you want something, you can either turn it on, or change it in a less panicky way.

Beneath the wheels - snow porridge, but - on a thin and fluffy one, like a BMW, kermi - the transparency of the summer sky. Important, dumb at the frame pozashlyahovik, the movement on the "dribnitsa" with an increase in speed turns into an easy move, the gearbox does not trust, and even the five-cylinder turbo engine on the Hatch-Beck golf class is simply a goiter and a provocateur.

With such talents, it doesn’t matter how much the price is for a million. Ale im'ya, I would change everything, so that everything would be in a fair way.

Kostyantyn Sorokin

Any price is not cross and not country! First of all, from any side, I was not surprised to see the new Volvo V40 in a pseudo-off-road appearance, without showing a whole image. Design, already vibachte, tezh. Axle at Volvo C30 vin є. The XC family is also individual. And here is a faceless sample image on the theme of the latest hatchbacks in the golf class.

Good thing, in the middle the car looks like an ethnic “Scandinavian”: aesthetically weaving, using incompetent materials and stuffing with electronic assistants of the rest of the generation. The deputy of cameras for the situation in the dead zones to stitch micro-wave sensors - this is also a sign of technical equivalence. But why am I sitting so low? Why, entering the parking lot, scratching the ice with a plastic body kit? The fact that the view of the right Cross Country is not lost here. So enjoy the dynamic "windows" of the 250-horsepower turbo engine, enjoy the road roughness and in any case do not rush off the asphalt.

Sergiy Znaemsky

Iron mark, the symbol of the bay, the sign of Mars, the order of masculinity ... Is it still appropriate on the nose of a Volvo? Why hasn't the time come to change yoga on a stylized Venus mirror? Who is in the world of all sweetness, premium and fashion? Well, V40 Cross Country!

Crossover - not a pidlog and not a call, not a trend, a style. Tse look. Great laces on a high waist to a tight-fitting suit, a fitting device, a bauble of an illuminated transmission selector - the axis and the hero of our time is ready. More precisely, the heroine.

Croc on the street. And there...

Oh, my God, I'm threatening the danger in the blind zone! The distance is shortening! The speed has been changed! We spend our smog ... It's scary to live!

Judging by the number of panic attacks of on-board electronics, the world has a charitable gift, like a car “dme on water”, defending itself “like a fool”, and for the importance, like the Swedes give the slipping of such systems, the water of the very first line of preparation for kerm is not just not turned off , ale and especially hive. Axis out, a new breed of Volvo driver: if a cook is to rule a country, then who doesn’t run into a small Volvo?

As if it’s such a “very good home-giving gift”, as if they took it easy on the small crossover V40 Cross Country in the T5 version, I will hasten to please you - you have a chance in the ship, or even out of court order, to turn the leather from stained glass to a new 2 million 219 thousand rubles . That’s why you’ve been introduced into Oman: in Russia, the V40 is more promising as a SUV, lower as a hot hatch, like a national wine.

How to turn on all electronic insurance companies and know the little bird, for whom winter has not yet come ... Like, to the encore, a mirror! Semi-luminous motor, light-legged "automatic", muscular chassis and filigree carving - the axis of wines, human Volvo-driving!

It's great that the Swedes, nareshti, have distanced themselves from BMW and Audi in terms of their driving temperament, that they are inspired by glamor in the image, that Bentley requests a new head interior, which singsongly put things in order in Swedish with a hand and a button. Maybe, then, and marketers will know the courage to spit on fashion and declare that Volvo is still a brand of a human family. Chi no? We have already learned how to recognize by emblems.

Igor Volodymyrsky

Axis to you, buyers, wagon. Great, with a soft interior, a tight engine - and navit with a full drive. Take?

Ni-i-i, we don't need a shed!

And what about mi yogo trohi “liftanem”, dressed in black plastic and called poshlyahovik?

The axis of the dialogue is to explain to you why the “primary” station wagons Subaru Legacy and Volvo V70 were already sent from the Russian market, leaving the Outback and XC70 instead. The Audi A6 Avant is still being trimmed, but in the past year such station wagons sold close to thirty pieces - Allroad ten times more popular! Why marvel at the fact that in Volvo they didn’t want to bring the “superior” V40 hatchback to our market, relying on this “crossover” version?

Ale, one on the right - splits in the light roadless great station wagon (you want to use the non-farbing plastic body kit), and the hatchback axle of the golf class with disguise under the power shield is shriveled by inserts to give up on the stupidity of the hіba scho Oke with the “kenguryatnik”. І tse cover, for that, on my own, the Volvo V40 was worthy of me.

Even the love of the Russians is great to the ostentatious “pozashlyakhovogo” flooring, what beauty can be sacrificed? In my opinion, “just” the Volvo V40 is one of the most beautiful cars of our day. Ale, I’ll clean up the yoga line, unfortunately, don’t help us.

Wonderfully tsіkavy salon! And in front of the water - the right control panel! Sidaesh - and for one hour forgetting about everything in the world. In the middle - a panel with a miraculous graphic machine, a majestic piercing hatch in the dash, an invisible handle on the important shifting of gears ... But if you need to blame all the beauty of vikoristovuvaty, you'll zavmirash again, but if you see destruction. Dribni buttons rozsipany on the central console, and koristuvatisya them on the go without the right to not see. To simply turn on the sound of the audio system, you need to press not on a square, but only on one part. I called that if you press on the button to play the seat, the indication will appear on the button itself. And then sting-sting, but nothing saved. Thought it didn't work. Pіznіshe zrozumіla, scho marveling at the display. Looked back, I guessed that I had a similar problem and behind the kerm not less effective C30, yak, to the point, may be rich with V40 rice: from the design of the cabin to the beautifully beautiful rear part of the body.

The car is already badly їde. Premis-thaya, nadiyana, virazna. Whose car is silent carpet on wheels, in a yak of leather once it’s nice to wrap up. And all the same, I don’t get sparks, vogniks, a little devil, who is guilty of living in my car. Chi do not start.

Volodymyr Melnikov

The Russian representative of Volvo, on the vіdmіnu, let's say, vіd Autoreview, has long heard about the premium status of the brand - and, of course, positively. Therefore, the advertising slogan for the V40 Cross Country hatchback, due to ruthlessness of creativity, can only be used with the "swallowed" types of BMW - "innovations"! And the union of two stickers on the doors of the parked billet of my hatchback booth gave birth to an even more wondrous day - “Innovations of Obukhiv”.

Stop, but it's true! Fifteen more years ago, the Obukhiv company, at that time the leading service for the repair of Swedish cars, propagated "tuning of new packs" - improving road clearance on passenger models, installing a power underbody protection ... These Swedes were skeptical about these experiments, wanting to actually improve brought the appearance of cars with Cross, Scout and Alltrack prefixes! At the same time, the roads are much better, lower todі, ale, divi, drink on the lower version only grown.

If you also need such a vehicle for a good fight with curbs, then the V40 Cross Country is a good option. Zvichayno, mind you, that you fight in singles or a maximum of doubles. Because the trunk here is not modest in a Volvo way, but the back seats ... What are the back seats?

Then, in front of it, it’s cool: a good cut, beautiful, bagatolika adjoining panel. І їde V40 so, as if no one dreamed about additional car repairs in Obukhiv Autocentre. Can't the advertising slogans really have such power? With its V40 Cross Country sounds, it really makes me think of a BMW! Schіlna pіdvіska, Іnformativny kermo, shvidkі and exact reactions. I've never been so kind for a Volvo kerm.

"Innovations" people are choked up! The axle stuck...


Ivan Shadrichev

Trapplyayutsya Volvo and prettier, but on the whole the style is less slicker. The car is plump, but the hood has been added for more in size; prote for the rear passengers won't be embossed, like in the knees and feet, so in height - I'm not a god-like whistle, prote "by itself" fit ice.

The axis behind the kerm is not good for me. Maybe, for one thing: the tachometer on the fashionable “virtual” shield is wiyshov for me, it’s easy to see, that sense shows symmetrically to the symmetrically stitched arrow on the other side of the speedometer, I didn’t understand on the go. I suspect that I’m telling you about the economy of the fire, but if so, I’m not bad at all, that I’m supposedly ignoring it. Bo, having trampled on the right pedal to the soul - i, I know the mushu, delivering my own satisfaction. It’s also welcome, especially if it’s allowed to overtake the zone to become only a few meters away, and you can easily fit into the frame. І quiet rokіt of the motor vuha reception. However, I won’t name a more comfortable ride: if the cars are smoothed out at a good pace, then the pressure will be sharpened - and the increase will be more likely to allow and lower, and the report will repeat the pits and vistupiv. That balakucha out on the viboins.

Axis scho vouchsafed bezsterezhno, so tse behavior in the corners. The system of stabilization in the process of management has not yet been introduced into the system, allowing to move in small yards. It’s going to be thrown right along, if I myself have already climbed up and taken it out and notice.

The rest of the electronic assistants embarrassed the poor. Take, for example, the reading of road signs. Stosovno to our fatherland - step by step. The axis of the propovz of a speed bump, in front of which is the sign with the number 20, but there is no way to tell the sign i! I'm going with an incorrect hint, until the other exchange is not cleared up.

Seeing in advance about the unsafe closeness in the capital is also a hassle. Work hard for the guards, because of which you yourself will fall into a panic in the face of an imminent and imminent collapse. Want to throw a car negainno - and strіmgolov in the subway

If I venture into the ride, it’s as if I’m in a simpler car.

The competition for the best sounding option on the Russian market with a great wind will have a system of recognizing road signs. If you want the Volvo V40 qi signs to be displayed more easily - in colors, on the field of a rare-crystal “speedometer”. A mark appears on the interactive scale, and if you change the speed - the i sign will shine for a couple of seconds.

Axis only in chotirioh z five vipadkіv really allowed shvidkіst bula zovsіm іnshoy! The head puncture is in the fact that the camera does not recognize the signs on the cob and the end of the settlements, as in our country they basically sign the Swedish regime. The system is not “recognised” and crossed over, to what extent, behind our Rules, there are signs of foreign exchange.

On another place in the rating of marnosti - a system of assistance in morning sickness. Why do you help yourself, and not doom? That’s why Volvo doesn’t drive it, but rather pulls on the retina of the rosette with a weak vibration of kerma. If we drove the V40 Cross Country “to St. Petersburg in ob'їzd” (AR No. 7, 2013), the vibration was even more constant - on our winter roads, we have to wait all the time for the sign, about the ice and snow.

Active cruise control ... Garazd, maybe in the third month I won’t show it - I’ll leave the “bronze” for seven-color lighting in the cabin. And cruise control, to say the least, here works with zero speed, so you can drive a car in trials. Tricks in dispersal and galvanism, but not catastrophic. And if you don’t bent, if the distance to the front of the car is such that it’s possible to get in (I’m aware of the Russian specifics!), then an active “cruise” really allows you to relax over a kerm.

Let electronics - our future. Volvo sings that they have an ambitious plan, so that until 2020 people won’t die in cars of this brand, it’s possible only for the electronic aids. In more traditional "automobile" regions, all reserves may be collected, perfection may be achieved.

And then you can see that a car for 1.3 million rubles (in the basic configuration of the V40 Cross Country, I don’t get even a single seat) costs twice as much. One little bit of "metal" from Volvo costs 40,000 rubles, and "pomіchniki" - even more expensive. Well їх uxіh!

As always, the journalists will be shown cars in rich configurations. Black Volvo V40 Cross Country with a wide range of aluminum door sills and zvіsah front and rear without becoming a vinnyatka. True, to the top version with a 249-horsepower engine, a smaller 213-horsepower unit was available. troch missing. Then I didn’t do anything else. For some reason, it’s better - it’s not so careless, the tributes are smaller, but the tightness, which is more important in the minds of the mіskoї їzdi, pozaochі vistachaє. Don't say it, the machine is not the best, the same Ford Focus.

I respect that the similarity with the “Focus” is completely different, the model was broken up even at that hour, if Volvo was part of the friendly family of the Detroit auto giant, and the order of the harmless Scandinavian design in the Volvo V40 Cross Country is not the same as the health of the American high-tech pragmatism. However, why the company from Gothenburg has always lost its own veneer, so in practice the car is as safe as possible. It is not surprising that the Volvo V40, which made its debut in the past year in Geneva, has become the first car in the world with a pishohidnoy airbag. If I spoke with Stefan Inerfeld, the designer of the V40 project, I was even more embarrassed by the announcement about those that such a humane car would not be sold with us.

As explained to me in the company, the V40 did not reach Russia through the scaling of a low drink on a compact station wagon, and the axle is a larger brutal version, with improved road awareness and a full drive, nareshti, zavіtala. It’s less quiet now that the airbag for the walker was not thrown out of the options package. The won is available in Russia and costs 39 thousand rubles. Some kind of human love has not yet died out in us, show the statistics of sales, if only they repent.


Ale, it's time for kermo. With all the compactness of the car, it’s water, and it’s great to grow up, it’s time to stick in the Volvo V40 Cross Country (although it’s necessary to respect that the seat cushions are short), and the axis of the team, who sits in the back, happens to be hushed up. It costs space for the feet, and especially for the head. There was a lot of marveling at three passengers in winter clothes on the back seat. The lads optimistically shrugged, moving, in tightness, but not in image, before that, having huddled one to one - warmer. Chi didn’t know the stink that the rear seats could have a triple-range pidgriv.

What does a car mean from Scandinavia! The scorched food is given respect. In the car, and before starting, a cobweb of invisible electric threads covered all the windshields, the sides of the mirror and the slopes of the rear doors were not left without respect. You can start warming up the engine and the cabin remotely from an iPhone, a cost-free program in the App add-ons, or just type the word Volvo. Through a smartphone, you can also control the state of the car, setting a number of parameters. But for fashionable gadgets, the “reasonable” car did not speed up, for example, with an insufficient level of gasoline in the V40 Cross Country tank, it would not burn it all for the sake of heat.

In a warm car, you can and need to travel without an overcoat. A coat or a jacket surrounds the friability of water, and also reduces the risk of injury in case of an accident on a windshield. Fighting for the safety of the car, the Swedes brought it. It appears that a few centimeters are silent, as if they were strengthening the body in the presence of a safety belt, milking it when closed, so as to avoid serious injuries. I guessed about it, if I had crossed the "hundred" arrow of the speedometer. I know, I didn’t look at the Volvo V40 Cross Country of such a swedish one, on one hard acceleration, vrakhovuychi slota and snow under the wheels. Axis if you need a new drive!

As I already said, not all are delivered to Russia Volvo V40 Cross Country equipped with it. Cars with chotiricyl-cylinder engines 180 h.p. don't mess with yoga. And the axis of the p'yatitsilindrovі units 213 and 249 forces - be kind. The reason is permanent and not included. Zmusiti pratsyuvati only one all does not seem possible. There are no downshifts and handouts. Up to "hundred" my "black arrow" was played in 7.2 seconds, playing the older "sister" for 0.5 seconds. "Hundred" is supported by a 180-strong version at 8.7 seconds, which is also against it. І nіyakih here roses about cars Volvo and їх vodiїv!


From the first kilometers covered, you can see the turbot about water. Especially it manifests itself in the strong miserable sweat. Bichni indicators of "blind" zones in the front struts will help to prevent inaccurate rebuilding. Before speech, tsі elektronnі pristroї, yak modern cars of prestigious brands, first appeared on Volvo 7 years ago on the C30 model. Adaptive cruise control trims the distance, right up to the teeth, to the front of the car, which is going. And the trinity kerma tells you about the mimic line of the line mark. When maneuvering in reverse, the Volvo V40 Cross Country turns on the rear camera, which can be directed straight ahead, or you can lower the bumper to park more. More than that, watching in reverse, the water does not need to be afraid of transport, which is going forward. In times of insecurity, the car is not only able to get ahead of the water, but also to drive the car. In my opinion, the turbocharger for water was even larger at the bottom, like a large display in the center of the front panel and a tactile screen. And so you have to twist the handle incessantly in the noises of the necessary letters ... The presence of the tactile screen was relieved by the noises of the necessary functions, as they change under the pictograms of the buttons, spreading them on the console and practically not being read from the water.


Then the Volvo V40 Cross Country will park on its own, “seeing” enough space for a lot of space in a row of parked cars on the pavement. Insanely, the Volvo model is closer than other serial cars to the threshold, for which people are not needed to control the technology. Tsya car building recognizable road signs. Under the hour of the test, more than once I caught myself thinking about those that the car would finish the rules of the street rush unskillfully, but I myself. Podekudi vіn reinsurance, vivodjachi on the speedometer obezhennja speed of 20 km / h. І at the same time Volvo V40 Cross Country car driver, їde swidko, ear, vpevneno. Zhorstka pіdvіska does not add comfort to passengers, but to rob comfortable control, including with swedish maneuvering. In harmony with the rozginnoy dynamics and the dynamics of galvanization. Galma mayut garniy zvorotny zv'azok. I’ll tell you the same about steering control.


But the axle was not worthy, so the studded gum was so loud (I don’t turn it off, that in the sounds penetrating into the cabin, it can often be the fault of insufficient sound insulation) and great surroundings looking back through the salon’s mirror. The whole expanse is crossed by three great headmen, who stand guard over the safety of the passive. Exchange of prudence compensates electronics. Compensate successfully, only the others have not yet called out the flooring without guarding. I don’t know what to do and get the Volvo V40 Cross Country crossover. Chi does not change me into what it is, it was written Cross Country in the lining under the rear bumper. Well, what kind of crossover with a clearance of 14 cm, do not have it as an assistant during the descent from the mountain? So, a good balancing road car with a driver's accent. Expensive, compact, safe.

Objectively speaking, the Volvo V40 hatchback, which has taken the Cross Country prefix in its name, is not a premier model. Even more at the Paris Automotive Forum, which took place in the autumn of 2012, the Swedish brand presented in a similar format a custom body and with the same name.

A small crossover V40 Cross Country 2016-2017 model rock having updated the design of the exterior, increasing the change in equipment and changes in the design of the interior.

Varto means that the name of the five-door Cross Country hatchback is practically the same as the V40 in the “standard” viconann. With only hotel touches, the designers individualized the look of the novelty, lightly lifting the car over the road and decorating the body with a plastic body kit. Another crossover design will be 17-inch wheels.

Design

The expressive design of the car will appeal to the whole audience, which is recognized as the first model. Go about young motorists, how to lead an active way of life.

A frail hood with a pair of twin ribs of thickness is dumb, flowing into a bulky radiator grille. The plafonds of the headlights have a smooth shape and stylish, light-colored horizontal hues, like a headlight navpil. The arcuate line of the dash and the rear lights in the shape of the boomerangs give the appearance of the machine's sportiness and dynamics. Organically supplementing the picture and protecting the line of the sloping body.

The crossover folded 4370 mm, its width is 1783 mm, the height of the V40 Cross Country does not exceed 1458 mm. Between the front and rear axles, the wheels of the new Volvo folded 2,646 mm. Road enlightenment of the novelty, although it is necessary to declare it as “poshlyachovy” in practice, is only 144 mm. Obviously, with such a clearance, there is no varto from asphalt roads.

What's in the salon?

Behind its internal design, the Volvo V40 Cross Country is exactly the same as the “singular” V40 model. The modern design, noble construction materials and the incompetent quality of the interior selection point to the premium price of the car.

Crim of stylish design, interior viviren ergonomics and high level of comfort, yaki safe water and passengers. Calm front armchairs are ruffled with a rose-shaped padding, an optimal profile of the backs and a distant size of pillows. The design of the front panel is typical for cars of the Swedish brand. How to make materials using natural skin, polishing aluminum and winding natural wood.

And the axis of the open space on the other row of seats is food. Regardless of the distance and handy molding of a sofa, laid out for two passengers, people above average height will not be so quiet here.

Chi not the strongest place is represented by models and є і її luggage allowance. The vintage volume of the car is 335 liters, so you can increase up to 1,032 liters by folding the backs of the rear seats. Under the surface of the luggage compartment, there was a place for a “dock” and a set of tools.

Having driven on the new Volvo crossover, you have gained respect for the practically ideal soundproofing of the cabin - on high doors in the cabin you can speak without raising your voice, but understand that the car’s engine is idling, just look at the tachometer.

Technical characteristics

For Russian dealers, versions of the Volvo V40 Cross Country are assigned, equipped with two engine options. For locking, the car is equipped with front-wheel drive, for top-end modifications, a full-drive system is available, which is based on the Haldex coupling of the fifth generation. In this case, in case of slipping of the front wheels, the system will automatically connect the rear axle.

Petrol engines of the Volvo V40 crossover are included in their turbocharged units T3, T4, and also T5. The basic version has a volume of 1.5 liters and a type of 152 k.s. maximum tightness. The middle version is a 2.0-liter engine with a capacity of 190 h.p., the top gasoline engine can have the same volume of 2.0 l. tightness.

Navitkoy gasoline engine gives the car a "priyomistnost" and an obvious drop after the gas pedal is drowned when driving at medium speeds.

The smallest engine is a diesel plant, which is equipped with modifications of the V40 Cross Country D2. Tsey chotiricillin motor develops no more than 120 k.s. and are not affected by the ignition dynamics. Then the diesel version of Volvo will please you with its economy. Applications of D2 vitrata per 100 km of a mixed run are only 3.9 liters.

Fallow in the form of a reversed motor, before the new one, paired with 6 or 8-range automatic transmissions.

Other technical features of the crossover include the presence of an electric steering support, ventilated disk galms of the front axle, and also an independent suspension.

subbag

With the numerical pluses of the model in some of the worst moments, critics call the clearance insufficient for the crossover, the need for a compact trunk and the awkwardness of the landing process and landing on the seat of another row.

Judging by the price of a compact crossover, your potential purchases are far from ordinary people, even 1,399,000 rubles for a front-wheel drive V40 CC - the price is much more than the practical Mazda CX-5 is also front-wheel drive. Meanwhile, Volvo is already a premium product, and for the price of 2 million for the starting Mercedes GLA, the price of the V40 is quite modest, so here you can boldly write a plus sign on the account of this model.
