Real shot Volvo XC40: I have more than safety.

Some time ago, someone asked me, what about the Volvo XC40? How about motivation? Which configuration is cost-effective? Today, we will take you to experience and understand the Volvo XC40.

As Volvo's first compact SUV, XC40 is equipped with three power configurations of Volvo T3/T4/T5, and provides full-time four-wheel drive. Among them, the maximum power output of the T5 model can reach 252 horsepower ~ the official guide price is 264,800 ~ 385,800 ~ At present, the terminal discount is still relatively large, and the cost performance is good ~

In terms of appearance, the domestic XC40 continues the overseas design style, and the appearance adopts a lot of tough lines, which is simple and generous. The Volvo family's Raytheon hammer headlights and Viking axe taillights are not absent on the XC40, and all the headlights use far and near LED headlights. The roof is also designed with a suspended roof, which is fashionable and dynamic. As you can see from the rear of the car, the Volvo XC40 adopts double exhaust pipes, which are really exhausting and can smoke ~

The two wide rearview mirrors not only support conventional electric adjustment, automatic folding and heating, but also have position memory and automatic reversing function. In the process of reversing, you can easily see obstacles on the ground next to the car.

The appearance of XC40 is 4425* 1863* 1652mm, the wheelbase is 2702mm, and the minimum ground clearance is 2 1 1 mm ... The chassis adopts front McPherson/rear multi-link four-wheel independent suspension and adopts full-time four-wheel drive system. This model we shot today is equipped with 19 inch two-color wheels and a Michelin? 235/50R 19 tire.

As soon as you get into the car, you will find a Nordic minimalist style ~XC40 does not use various large screens and touch screens like many cars now ~ but uses a vertical 9-inch central control screen with a row of physical buttons below. It feels good, and it is also very convenient to do blind exercises in the process of using the car ~

XC40 adopts 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel, which can display navigation information in addition to conventional data display. It is very convenient during driving, and you don't have to compete with the co-pilot for central control. There is also a very eye-catching thing in the interior, that is, the crystal gear handle from Swarovski, which is very distinctive and recognizable ~ Unfortunately, the start button of XC40 is not the same knob as XC60, but an ordinary button ~

The storage space in the front row of XC40 is very small and intimate. For example, there is a small drawer under the main driver's seat, where you can put some small things such as bills, cards, pens and invoices. There is a trash can that can be picked up under the central armrest ~ Of course, what makes me most satisfied is that there is a foldable hook hidden on the glove box of the co-pilot. Don't underestimate this hook ~ you can bring breakfast in the morning, and the lady above brings the bag.

Volvo XC40 comes standard with electric seat, seat memory and electric lumbar support, and the overall package and support of the seat are also good. Bian Xiao: My height is175cm and my weight is 200kg. Sitting in the main driver's seat does not feel depressed, and the key control and storage space of various functions are quite easy. To my surprise, after I adjusted the front row to the normal driving position, there was still room for two fists in the back row. ~XC40 rear configuration is relatively simple, with rear armrest, rear air outlet and rear USB interface. Of course, there is another one that makes me feel comfortable. In this way, it is more convenient to get something from the trunk in the back row during driving ~

XC40？ T4/T5 models are equipped with electric tailgate and induction tailgate, which is easy to operate ~ and the trunk space is very regular, and the seat supports 4/6 split and laid down, and it is completely flat after being laid down. There is a small hidden storage space under the trunk platform, which can hold some valuables such as laptops and wallets. Below, it is a non-full-size spare tire.

In terms of power, Volvo XC40 provides T3/T4/T5*** three kinds of power, all of which are matched with 8AT automatic manual transmission with good stability. T3 corresponds to a 1.5T three-cylinder engine with an output of 163 horsepower. T4/T5 correspond to the low-power version and high-power version of 2.0T respectively, and can output 190 horsepower and 252 horsepower, and it is equipped with a full-time four-wheel drive system, which has a good improvement in maneuverability and passability. From the power point of view, Volvo XC40 is at the upstream level in the same class, and 1.5T model 163 horsepower can actually meet the needs of family cars, but if there is any objection to the three-cylinder or the pursuit of power and four-wheel drive, 2.0T? T4？ 190 horsepower is also a good choice ~

What about in XC40? The price range is 264,800 ~ 385,800, the driving force is T3/T4/T5, and the configuration includes versions of Zhixing, Zhiyuan and Zia, as well as fashion, luxury and sports. So many kinds ~ how to choose? Which is cost-effective?

First, let's look at the configuration table, Volvo XC40? The basic configuration of is very high, and many configurations are standard in the whole system. For example, the whole system comes standard with electronic handbrake, automatic parking, constant speed cruise (T4/T5 is adaptive cruise), uphill assist, steep descent, panoramic sunroof, one-button start, 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel, electric seat, seat memory, CarPlay, 8 speakers, far and near light LED, automatic headlights, etc. ~ Of course, Volvo, which is famous for its safety, is just like side airbags and automatic headlights.

Even if it is not standard in the whole system, some configurations are not available in one or two entry-level configurations, such as leather seats, keyless entry, etc., which are only available in T3 fashion version. Electric tailgate, inductive tailgate, adaptive cruise, seat heating, automatic anti-glare rearview mirror, etc. are not only available in T3 models, but in T4/T5 whole system. ...

It is recommended to buy T3 Zhiyuan Deluxe Edition of RMB 282,800 and T4 Zhiyuan Deluxe Edition and Zhiyuan Sports Edition of RMB 3 1.88 million ~

In fact, it is obvious that the most cost-effective one should be the entry-level 1.5T of 264,800? T3？ Zhixing Fashion Edition ~ However, T3 Zhixing Fashion Edition lacks leather seats and keyless entry. In the subsequent car use process, you will find that it is actually quite easy to use ~T3 Zhiyuan Deluxe Edition basically has all the necessary things. 1.5T? 163 horsepower is also very sufficient in daily driving! If there is anything wrong, it should be a three-cylinder engine ~

If the power and configuration requirements are high or the three-cylinder engine is not acceptable, then choose 190 horsepower 2.0T? T4 four-cylinder engine ~ 3 18800 T4? Zhiyuan sports edition, of course, if you like deluxe edition, the difference is not very big ~

First of all, in terms of power, T4 Zhiyuan luxury/sports? Adopt 2.0T? Four-cylinder engine, output power 190 horsepower, full-time four-wheel drive system. T3 is inferior to T3 in power and control ~ It has more functions than T3 in configuration, such as adaptive cruise, 19-inch wheel hub, electric tailgate (with induction), seat heating, LED fog lamp and automatic anti-glare ~

As for the difference between the sports version and the deluxe version, one is that the style of the front air intake grille is different, and the other is that the sports version has two configurations of shift paddles and foot pads, and the seat is changed from genuine leather to genuine leather+suede ~ (good-looking, but not easy to take care of).
