The 2010 2011 Volvo V40 wagon and the S40 sedan both come with the same
level of safety features as the other Volvo models, but are Volvo's
smallest and most affordable wagon and sedan. The 2010 2011 Volvo
V40 sedan and V40 wagon are endowed with more horsepower, sharing
a turbo 4-cyl engine with 170 hp with a 5-speed automatic transmission.
As
part of the renowned 2010 2011 Volvo safety armamentarium
comes the standard torso front side airbags, curtain side airbags,
and antilock 4-wheel disc brakes. The optional Volvo V40 Cold
Weather Package includes traction control. A sunroof, leather
upholstery, and rear child-booster seats are other options. Leather
upholstery, a spoiler, fog lights, and unique interior trim, and
16-inch wheels can be yours in the Sport Package option. Teat
drive a 2010 2011 Volvo V40 and you will see for yourself why our 2010 2011
Volvo V40 review is so positive about the economy class Volvos.
Linked to
a standard 2010 2011 Volvo V40 automatic transmission, all new
V40's are equipped with a turbocharged 170-horsepower 1.9-liter
four-cylinder engine. As with other Volvos, safety is one of the
V40's greatest assets. Every vehicle comes with an extensive menu
of airbags, including Inflatable Curtain (IC) head-protection
airbags for front and rear passengers, side airbags for front
passengers and the usual dual-stage front airbags.
Additional
crash protection for the 2010 2011 Volvo V40 comes from whiplash-reducing
front seats and seatbelt pre-tensioners. Four-wheel antilock disc
brakes are standard throughout the line, while stability control
is available as part of the climate package. No crash tests have
been performed on the V40, but the S40 merits a "good"
rating in the 2010 2011 Volvo V40 tests carried out by IIHS for frontal
offset crash.
Included in the affordable price, the base 2010 2011 Volvo V40 offers
features such as automatic climate control and a CD player. There
are numerous new Volvo V40 individual features like power seats
and leather trim, and option packages, such as a climate package
which includes stability control and heated front seats. For those
who want the whole enchilada, the 2010 2011 V40 Premium package
adds a sunroof, an enhanced audio system, power driver seat, simulated
wood grain appointments, leather upholstery and a trip computer.
The driving enthusiast will enjoy the new Volvo V40 Sport package
which offers front and rear spoilers, aluminum interior accents,
leather/cloth-upholstered sport seats and 16-inch wheels.
