Re: Hi from Sydney, Australia

Hi dalmato80 I’m in Sydney also and am about to finalize paperwork on an xc40 R design. How do you find the 4C suspension? Any problems with it?

In Australia it’s packaged such that it is only an additional $260 on top of purchasing 2 other options we want separately. So the extra cost isn’t huge.

4C active damping comfort.

Hi all, I’m new to the forum and live in Australia. I’ve just ordered a my2020 xc40 R -design (we like the look of this trim),with most of the “bells and whistles”, and am excited. We are very fit 60 year olds and don’t intend to “thrash”the vehicles around corners but rather mostly normal driving a...
