The Volvo XC40 Estate 1.5 T3 [163] R-Design brings a perfect blend of compact SUV practicality, distinctive styling, and Volvo?s renowned safety features. Positioned as the more performance-oriented version of Volvo?s popular XC40, the R-Design trim adds a touch of sporty character to an otherwise minimalist design while maintaining the brand?s core ethos of understated luxury and comfort. From the outside, the XC40 R-Design stands out with its dynamic and sporty aesthetic. Volvo has applied its signature Scandinavian minimalism with a bold twist, making the XC40 one of the most striking compact SUVs on the road. The R-Design trim takes this further, adding a more aggressive touch with gloss-black accents on the roof, door mirrors, and front grille. The 18-inch alloy wheels in a bold design further elevate the car's assertive stance, while the sharp Thor?s Hammer LED headlights continue to be a defining feature of Volvo?s design language. Unlike many SUVs in its class, the XC40 doesn?t go overboard with sharp edges or over-the-top aggressive styling. Instead, it blends clean lines with modern touches to create a stylish, contemporary vehicle that feels at home both in urban settings and on rural roads. Inside, the XC40 R-Design is a reflection of Volvo?s commitment to high-quality materials and smart, user-friendly design. The minimalist cabin is beautifully crafted, with plenty of soft-touch materials, sporty detailing, and a clean, uncluttered layout. The R-Design trim comes with a distinctive charcoal-colored interior, metal mesh inlays, and sporty leather/Nubuck upholstery, which gives the cabin a premium, yet sporty feel. The leather-wrapped, perforated steering wheel and sports seats offer great comfort and support, ensuring that longer journeys are as enjoyable as short city trips. Volvo?s attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the interior, from the crystal-clear 9-inch touchscreen to the quality of the stitching on the seats. Blue, £24,086
