It's been about 4.5 years since Volvo's first compact SUV was released in September 2017, and it's been the middle of the year. Recently, Volvo finally released the information of the small modification XC40 on the official website in Europe; but unlike the previous practice of publishing new cars, volvo did not issue press releases and detailed data this time, and only released the information of the small modification XC40 on the model selection and construction page.
From the appearance point of view, the small modification of the XC40 is not a big change, the most obvious difference is that the front and rear guard shape adopts a new design. For the front bumper, the original designer reduced the plastic area where the fog lights were installed below the sides, making the front bumper of the small modification XC40 look more modern and similar to the C40, and the rear bumper eliminated the design of integrating the exhaust pipe with it, and installed the exhaust pipe under the rear of the car. In addition, the LED daytime light bar of the headlight group has also become more slender.
In terms of power settings, the entry-level version of the smallly modified XC40 is equipped with a 1.5-liter 3-cylinder petrol engine with a maximum horsepower of 127 hp, while the mid-range versions B3 and B4 are also equipped with 2.0-litre inline 4-cylinder petrol turbo engines with 161 hp and 194 hp, respectively. As for the T4, T5 and other PHEV plug-in hybrid versions, in addition to a power motor that can output 81 horsepower, the former's engine can also provide 127 horsepower, the latter has 178 horsepower, and the combined output of the two exceeds 200 horsepower.
