Readiness for Delivery
This message is aimed at those who have already taken delivery and/or those that are well versed in such matters and prepared for the big day!

Re: Tyres
Mines is coming with 20" wheels; If I decide not to do a swap with somebody for 19", I will run Michelin Cross Climate (+) 255/45/20's, they are expensive; I would run them all year round. I don't think standard UK oem's on an XC40 will be all-season If I do swap to 19", I will proba...

Tyres
Can somebody please tell me whether the standard tyres on an FE are all season or not.
Thanks in advance .

Re: Polestar
I have now taken the plunge and have secured Polestar at today’s price. The dealer feels that it is very worthwhile especially for me, coming from a very quick Audi SQ5.

Re: Polestar
You probably read it here........ https://www.topgear.com/car-news/suvs/polestar-will-make-your-regular-volvo-more-drifty Polestar makes a difference in all modes as far as I know.

Re: Polestar
I have read somewhere that in order to access the benefit of Polestar you have to either be in dynamic mode or switch off stability control. Firstly, is this the case? Secondly, if this is the case, would I see any benefit in Eco mode or Comfort mode? As I rarely use Dynamic mode, I am concerned as ...

Re: MPG - Again :-)
Just wondering if there's any air con factor in some of the lower than anticipated mpg some are mentioning. We've had a lot of unusually warm weather lately so I'd imagine the air con has been working pretty hard. Have read a few things about possible reduction of up to 25% (not XC40 specific) part...
