I have a C40. No issues with any squeaks or rattles and I play the stereo (excellent system) nice and loud so possibly just an issue on your build.

Range optimiser helped my xc40 a lot in winter for short trips. I don't know how useful it would be in the range test though.
In the YouTube music settings you can allow to read local songs.

Hi!
Thans for your testing.
For the music you can use USB Key for listening music .You have to charge AudioWagon application.
IT Works not to bad

[Encephalitisify]

It has a feature where it blows fresh air into the car if someone is inside and the car is parked.

Thanks, nice test. 199 Wh/km at only 90kmh and nearly 290Wh/km at 120kmh in such nice conditions is to me pretty awful... I dont understand, why it is always these SUVs that people want with a drag coefficient of a wardrobe :)

[andrewklyuchnyk]

I saw 70km/h test at 20 degrees celsius with R20 wheels - a consumption was 15.6/100

[skywalker]

5:14 Is it just me or is it weird that the 20kg difference in mass [compared to XC40 RC] is all on the FRONT axle?

[cannygrowabeard]

Imagine this car but even lower to the ground with a smaller cross section. Where is my V60/V90 Recharge Volvo????

[EugeneHoochie]

Not too many people know that A in VOLVO stands for Aerodynamics 😉

[mattbowen]

AudioWagon for USB Music support, yeah you have to install it but it works perfectly for your own USB Music, don't forget your USB-C adapter.. :D

[Sahkoautoseparempiauto]

Did the car have 1.10 software? My experience is that it fixes the pilot assist quite a bit. Still not good as even in ID, but it's better.

[dcbel]

Very interesting video! The Volvo C40 is a good electric car with an excellent turn of pace, enough range and a quality interior.

[davesutherland]

How much range was lost with the winter tires? Never actually checked on any car I have owned, but the increased road noise definitely means less efficient performance with winter tires.

[monsieurb]

Not made in Sweden - made in Belgium! ;-) I like the looks but my dad ordered a XC40 instead.

[danielcarlstedt]

Noice-level … I drove the xc40 and the luggage-compartment transfered a lot of roadnoice, is the c40 more quiet ?

[tocor]

this sound is the excess of heat air go up, first the doors, the panels ...etc.
defreeze and heat the car. (one of much more secrects of volvo C40)

[PersianLion]

Bør man velge Plugsurfing som følger med Volvo eller ladebrikke fra elbilforeningen?

[kwiks]

With these results... car is out of my attention. In fact unbelievable that Mod Y is so much better and it is even a lot bigger for a similar budget.

[TheEmrys]

My c40 twin 2023 is going maximum 360 why ? Volvo said 430 but I didn’t even see 400, last 300 km.😢

[marlon-]

This is coming from a guy who owned 8 Volvos since 2009, last one V90 D5 Inscription sold it last year in October for Enyaq 80x, but C40, my god this thing is so ugly. That in combination with such high consumption at higher speeds, I really don’t know what Volvo was thinking and why the heck were they hyping up this car so much. They are so far behind, not just Tesla, but Germans, Koreans, Chinese, it’s embarrassing.
