As per title. Preconditioning worked initially for warming up the car but now it fails to work. Just get a spinning wheel in the Volvo app until it says 'Ignition key is in the car' when it isn't! Also the car is plugged in to the electric. Used to work now doesn't. Any ideas guys? Think it might be...

Typolee - the engine and electric motor do work in parallel in Hybrid mode, when they are called to do so. I was led to believe only when you use kickdown in hybrid mode do they work together? In power mode they work together all the time? So in hybrid mode for example once you go past the electric...

Sillily I expected the battery to work with the engine to power up hills (it does in power mode but not in hybrid mode)

Yeah my T4 sounds like a Vespa could walk up hills quicker

I took delivery of a XC40 T4 recharge last month and I'm disappointed with the performance (very). I've come from a XC90 which I know was more powerful in D5 form but was much heavier so thought the performance would balance out. Up hills the Xc40 sounds like a flymo and revs its balls off. It just ...

In any event, after the 30 minutes preconditioning, the battery range starts at about 20 miles and drops to about 18 q...

Just fitted cross climate 2 to my xc40 b4, early days yet but so far no extra noise or dry / wet grip compromises, just waiting for a bit of snow to try them , they are supposed to be very good for snow grip.

I think they beat winter tyres in snow tests? Fitting them to my xc40 as well

Had my T4 recharge in thunder grey delivered a couple of weeks ago. Its absolutely awesome! And I'm coming from a 2019 XC90. Far more sporty feeling and trendier inside. And saving loads on fuel and tax obviously. Very please. Hope you guys can hold out for deliveries as I'm sure you will be happy w...

Mines at the dealer and being delivered to me next Thursday. Exciting times.
