Re: Possible new XC40 owner. T3 vs T4

I have T4 Inscription pro. I get just over 30mpg on mainly short journeys. On long journeys it goes up to 36mpg. I drive to the speed limits and use the adaptive cruise control all the time.
I find the T4 excellent. Not personally bothered about mpg.

Re: Pillow/Neck cushion

We use ours on longish journeys when the passenger is having a doze! Normally me when the wife takes over driving for her spell!

Re: Pilot Assist/ACC

I use ACC all the time and have pilot assist turned off most of the time. I use it on motorways only.

Re: New Volvo (XC40) user. T4 or T5

I have T4 Inscription and I am finding it's fine. Now done about 2000 miles and I think it's perfectly adequate for the UK roads and speed limits. Had no problems with acceleration(hard) when tried/needed. Not too economical the best I have managed is 34mpg.

Re: Hey!

Check that it has had it's 3 month inspection and that the details have been recorded. I bought an ex demonstrator and it has been brilliant.

Re: Front USB ports

I have an IPOD NANO connected to mine and you have to look really hard to find it as it sits alongside the contactless charging pad. I leave mine permanently connected
