Has B4 AWD XC40 been discontinued?

[Caradoc1]

Was browsing the ever complicated Volvo website this evening and could find no reference to the B4 AWD. Furthermore, the B4 engine now appears to be a 180hp unit with a semi-automatic gearbox available in FWD only. If this is the case - disappointing, I was hoping to replace like for like next year.
Can anyone throw any light on this?

I think it goes by the month tbh, if the orders are slow or the pricer cars are in waiting Volvo seem to delete to maximise margins on the dearer cars, that or the range is being slimmed out for gradual EV replacement so you'll give in and buy the EV over the ICE.

It depends on a market by market basis. On the configurator in my country (Croatia) the B4 AWD is available for ordering. Some European countries even offer the B5 AWD.
