I work in the auto Industry. I see all sorts of these new luxury SUV’s. I bought a 2019 XC40 and let me tell you they knocked it out of the freakin park with this one.

I love my 2021 XC40 T5 R-Design! I have a white with black roof. My favorite car I’ve had!

[mattmekhaeil]

Volvos are a underrated brand. Not a lot of people talk about them. I love how all their cars in their lineup are all sleek looking

Love your reviews! I bought one last year and I love it! It was amazing over the winter months too

I’ve been driving my new 2022 Volvo XC40 for a couple months now, and LOVE it! With Polestar, it’s a little rocket car. I tested almost 30 vehicles (just call me Joe Jr.!) and this just pushed all the right buttons for me. Things like a SPARE tire, yay! Easy touch screen, yay! panoramic sunroof, yay! and best of all, NO CVT!!!! I was in line at Walmart a couple days ago, saw this big candy display and what do I see but Swedish Fish! Made me laugh out loud. Yes, I bought a bag and it’s in the passenger door pocket! Appreciate all of your car reviews, and even though I finally bought a car, I’ll still keep watching. thanks Joe!!

Great Job on this video Mr Joe Raiti- its awesome. I like the the consistency on your videos- to the door panels is my favorite.

I used to have a 2005 S40 2.4i and drove it until it literally wouldn’t go anymore and my mother in-law is still driving her 2010 XC60 T6 with well over 200k miles on it…Volvo provides the best compromise between style, luxury components, and performance, and I will definitely be getting an XC40 in a couple of years! I am hoping they’ll make an XC40 T5 AWD Hybrid in that period of time, because I don’t want to go full electric but I also want to get the most use of the premium gas these little fellas require. 10/10 review as always, Joe!

Love the xc40 I Def wouldn't zonk the carpet on the doors cuz it's unique that's what makes it different and it's not like it looks ugly

Approaching 700k subscribers, Joe! I remember when you were around 10-12k. Great reviews!

Hey Raiti. One thing I would love to see new in your videos is adding a child car seat for those families looking to maximize their space. 💯

[mariowhyte]

Volvo strikes again!!! Nose to tail, in and out these lil rigs are stylish for Thank you much Joe and Lori for these absolutely amazing reviews!!! 👏 👍🏾🎉🚗💨💨💨

[joecraven]

Really a nice presentation. Entertaining and informative. Sounds like a great vehicle for snacking. Volvo has done a nice job with the XC40.

[lanitahicks]

I just found my new car for my birthday woohoo can’t wait thank you guys for the review definitely give it a stamp of approval…!!! Thank you 🙏

Fun fact: Volvo is the inventor of three point safe belt, so the front logo in safe belt shape is a nice touch.

My wife and I just bought 2019 Inscription.
She had her mind set on an X3 we were just waiting for the right time to buy. Then we have the XC40 a test drive and were sold. The X3 is great but for cost to buy and cost of ownership plus the design, the XC40 won. We love it.

You forgot about the drive mode. Put it in the Dynamic mode, and you will feel some punch out of the throttle. If you add Polestar performance package, it will add more punch.

[Aschoolbusandsimulatorfan]

My favorite Volvo SUV! Brilliant video Joe.

[LlamaSpeeed]

would be nice if they carried over the backseat ACs from the sedans. Having them in the pillar is a genius idea.

[dominickirkwood]

I love it my boy Joe keep up the work and I love the video lot real true 💯💯💯💯💯

[MrBYG]
