In his latest video, Peter walks through five reasons why the XC40 is such a standout choice for families. Here’s a closer look.

1. A Big Boot and Button-Opening Tailgate

When your hands are full of shopping, sports kit or baby bags, the XC40’s powered tailgate is a lifesaver. With the press of a button, the boot opens smoothly to reveal a generous, well-designed load space.

Plenty of room for pushchairs, luggage and weekly shops, with no awkward squeezing required.

2. Safety First (It’s a Volvo, After All)

Volvo has always led the way on safety. They invented the Side Impact Protection System, and the XC40 continues that legacy with:

• Multiple airbags
• Strong, reinforced body structure
• Advanced driver assistance systems
• Excellent crash-test ratings

If you want peace of mind on every trip, the XC40 delivers it.

3. Great Tech to Make Life Easier

Family cars need to be intuitive and stress-free. The XC40 includes:

• Sat nav
• Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• Reversing cameras
• Clear, simple-to-use infotainment controls

Whether you’re navigating a new route or reversing out of the school car park, the XC40’s tech is genuinely helpful rather than overwhelming.

4. Exceptionally Comfortable Seating and Lots of Space

Volvo is known for designing some of the most comfortable seats in the industry. The XC40’s supportive, orthopaedic seating makes a big difference, especially on longer journeys.

There’s also plenty of legroom and headroom, making it ideal for growing kids, tall teens or adults riding in the back.

5. Easy Access for Kids, Car Seats and Grandparents

Wide-opening doors and a raised seating position mean you don’t have to twist or stretch to lift children, car seats or boosters in and out.

It’s also a favourite with grandparents - the step-in height is easy on the knees, and the visibility from the elevated position is excellent.
