#Volvo crossover update
#Volvo crossover manual

If you want something that's a bit more practical and off-roader in style, then the Audi Q2, Mazda CX-3, MINI Countryman or Toyota C-HR could be worth considering. Then there are its compact executive hatch rivals, like the Audi A3, BMW 1 Series or even the Lexus CT 200h. Of course, you could save a bit of cash and go for the standard V40, although the shorter suspension means it won't be as comfortable. If you want a high-riding hatchback, then the closest rivals to the Volvo are the Mercedes GLA, which is essentially a raised A-Class, and the Infiniti QX30, which is Mercedes-based, but the range isn't as extensive. Prices for the V40 Cross Country range from around ВЈ24,000-ВЈ35,000, which puts it in competition with some accomplished rivals. This comes with the eight-speed auto as standard and is the only Cross Country model to come with four-wheel drive.

All models get a six-speed manual gearbox as standard, while the T3, D2 and D3 get an optional six-speed auto, and the D4 has an eight-speed auto option.ДЄt the top of the range, the T5 has ditched the ageing five-cylinder turbo petrol in favour of a 2.0-litre turbo four with 245bhp. That engine has 152bhp, while the diesels start at 120bhp for the D2, 150bhp for the D3 and 190bhp for the D4.

The most recent model update has seen the V40 gain 2.0-litre engines across the board, except for the T3, which gets a 1.5-litre engine if you add the Geartronic auto gearbox. Nav Plus models add sat-nav, TFT dials and a comprehensive trip computer and infotainment system, while Cross Country Pro versions also include leather, an upgraded sound system and a forward folding front passenger seat. This includes City Safety low-speed collision prevention, a driver's knee airbag, SIPS side impact protection and anti-whiplash front seats.

Standard kit includes Bluetooth, a DAB radio, LED headlights and a multifunction steering wheel, while Volvo's full suite of safety systems is included.
