Does putting in a hybrid transform the .volvocarsph XC40 experience? We find out. VolvoCars VolvoCarsPhilippines VolvoXC40 XC40 BoostHybrid XC40RDesign LuxurySUV CarReview CarGuidePH
There’s plenty to like with the Volvo XC40. Compared to other premium SUVs out there, it just gets things right. It’s stylish, spacious, well-fitted, and most important of all, safe. However, as the automotive world turns, the Swedish carmaker has given it a nip-and-tuck, and that’s the very vehicle you see here. While the revised design could be the most obvious reason to consider one, it also happens to pack an electrified powertrain in the Philippines for the very first time.
Perhaps the biggest issue with the XC40 B5 centers around fuel economy. The old T5 wasn’t particularly frugal, registering 9.52 km/L , but the B5 doesn’t do much better at 8.92 km/L. For full transparency, this mileage was done at slower speeds , but even during light weekend traffic, it’s almost impossible to achieve and maintain double digit fuel efficiency readings.
Regarding in-car entertainment and control, the XC40 B5 features a new infotainment system. With a screen size of nine inches, it’s the same as it was before, but the underlying architecture is now powered by Google as opposed to Sensus. Now, this is supposed to offer several advantages such as access to Google Assistant , a broad offer of native in-car apps thanks to built-in Google Play, and continuous improvement thanks to OTA updates.
