The D2 auto would probably manage 10 mpg better , but that volvo 5 cylinder is worth it :-)

I don't believe any Volvo's with the new D4 have been delivered yet... at least the Volvo PR said they wouldn't be until September!

Yes they have been around in the UK for a few months now but not yet in AWD form . Looking forward to the D5 version !

The new D4 engine (4-cyl, 190 bhp) is available to test drive at my local dealer..... have driven it in a V60 and it is very nice with great in-gear performance, but clearly misses out BIG time as it doesn't have that famous 5-cyl warble....

yes the D4 has been in the V40 a couple of months now , and the T5 245 bhp has just arrived . When the AWD development is finished and mated to the new engines it might be available in the V40 , It was in the V50 ..

The new D4 is an awesome engine (400 Nm), it's faster accelerating than the T5 I think. It is quieter than the D5 while it does it however, but does a lot more miles to the gallon. Volvo are taking orders from Mid August
