Volvo V40 exterior dimensions

The V40 is in a competitive class with the VW Golf, Audi A3 and Mercedes A-Class to contend with. On the outside, the car is larger than many of its rivals, partly thanks to only being available in practical five-door form.

Volvo V40 interior dimensions

The V40 might聽be big on the outside, but it鈥檚 not as spacious as some of its competitors in the inside. The Golf in particular makes better use of its cabin space thanks to being based on a more modern platform. Nevertheless,聽there鈥檚 still enough聽space for a family of four and a stylish, well-built cabin.

Volvo V40 luggage and fuel tank capacity

Like the聽interior, the boot isn鈥檛聽quite as generous as others in its class. Again,聽335 litres is a healthy amount and is more than enough for a trip to the supermarket. The fairly large 62-litre fuel tank means trips to the petrol station will be less frequent than some rivals.

Volvo V40 turning circle

The V40鈥檚 10.8-metre turning circle isn鈥檛 particularly ground-breaking, but is narrower than聽the VW Golf鈥檚 and roughly average for the class.

Volvo V40 weight

The V40 is towards the larger end of the hatchback spectrum, so is heavier than rivals such as聽the Golf, which is 350kg lighter. The lightest model of the V40 weighs in at 1,561kg.
