The 2010 Volvo S40 of the second-generation is a luxury compact sedan. It’s offered in two trims - the base 2.4i and the T5 R-Design, both tied to different engines. The 2.4i features a 2.4-liter inline-five with 168 horsepower, and front-wheel drive is standard. In contrast, the T5 R-Design comes with a turbocharged 2.5-liter inline-five delivering 227 horsepower, with an all-wheel-drive setup. Transmission choices include a five-speed automatic and a five-speed manual. Standard safety features include antilock disc brakes, stability control, front-seat side airbags, full-length curtain-type airbags, and whiplash-reducing front headrests. The S40 also brings impressive tech, including an optional navigation system with real-time traffic, Bluetooth, and an upgraded audio system with satellite radio. Notable changes this year include updated colors and wheel designs.
