The contentions of the S40 and V50 models with the North American market did not begin yesterday. Of the launch of the first generation of these vehicles, the public sulking as the family sedan. At that time the, the reason was very simple, these cars were not very competitive both on the figure, the road handling and performance. It was also a model concocted in collaboration with Mitsubishi and the results were disappointing. Volvo quickly recognized his errors and was attacked to the development of alternative models. This time, with Ford, its owner at the time and today, that the operation took place and the results were impressive, at least in terms of product.

Modern design
It is always difficult to apply a compact car visual criteria which were initially developed for a car or even mid-grade full size. We could have a cartoon on a reduced scale. Should be given good marks for stylists who Goteborg well integrated the famous rectangular grille that serves as a visual signature has any Volvo. Although we must still admit that the S40 sedan lacks some punch due to appearance. Her curves make it appear smaller than it is in reality, without denying her an elegant look all the same. It is most successful on the V50 wagon which fare better, especially with its vertical rear lights that frame the rear tailgate.

Since last year, it is possible to order the optional R-Design is available on models T5 FWD or AWD. It includes a unique grille features the R-Design logo, a set of rocker skirts, front and rear baffles, the upholstery of seats in the R-Design logo, aluminum pedals, a gear shift knob sport steering wheel exclusive well as an instrument different from the current model. This gives more of a character as the family's sedan.

In the cockpit, and this applies to both models, the dashboard can no longer stripped. The designers talk about Scandinavian design and try to involve all these cm2 plastic dashboard in a barren landscape of Sweden ... Everyone has different tastes, but it's pretty bleak for a North American! The designers have been forgiven by creating a console covered with floating wood and independent of the dashboard. This is a nice effect and adds a little spice in an environment that is relatively simple. By cons, it is difficult to criticize the comfort and lateral support of the front seats as in any self-respecting Volvo. However, the rear passenger space is quite limited, especially for the legs.

Good road traffic
Each time I take the wheel of either of these Volvo, I can not help but note that this is the relatively small size cars. All you need for a passenger PRELIMINARY elbows touch ... In fact, we like to associate these Volvo Mazda 3 and the two are virtually the same size. Yet in a Mazda one has the impression that there is more space, although in width, the Volvo wins a few millimeters. Anyway, the S40 and V50 are distinguished by a clean finish and ergonomic touches that are appreciated.

Whether you choose the sedan or station wagon, the base engine is a 5-cylinder inline 2.4-liter producing 168 horsepower and combines a five-speed manual reports. If you prefer an automatic transmission, it is five reports and performs its task without complaining. If this number of animals does not suit you, you can order a T5 powered by a turbocharged version of that same five-cylinder. At this time, the power is 227 horsepower while the manual gearbox is a six reports. This horse goes from 0 - 100 km / h in 6.8 seconds, 1.6 seconds less than the atmospheric engine. Furthermore, this engine more muscle you can control the wheel drive adds to the versatility of these two models.
It is difficult to find a fault with the road manners of this duo. Whether you choose the sedan or station wagon, each link turns smoothly, the steering is precise and very interesting feedback. However, some deem the suspension a little too stiff especially on our roads are still pretty dented .... In short, even if their price is high, they are quality cars that offer interesting and fun to drive a comfortable cabin. For many, the V50 version is preferable because it offers more versatility because of its configuration.

In fact, crippling the more these two cars is the fact that they are derived from the platform of the European Ford Focus and the Mazda3. People are so instantaneous an association between these two models of vocation more plebeian, throw a quick eye to the invoice without dwelling has more details and abandon the idea of ??riding in a Volvo S40 or V50. Their price puts them in confrontation with cars such as Audi A3, BMW 1 series and Mercedes-Benz C230, the most prestigious.
