    Had an XC40 for over 4 years now and done 70,000 miles.  I get 42-45mpg on a mix of motorway/A-roads and 35mpg with a mix of town and A-road driving.  Never had any problems with it but the audio system interface is pretty dire (I don’t have apple carplay though).  If I want to listen to an an artist at the back end of the alphabet, I have to scroll though pages and pages! I can’t just jump to those beginning with X for example.

    Was waiting to see what the latest motability price list looked like as we need to make a decision soon (on a 5 year lease) an ddid have the Sportage PHEV, Enyaq and XC40 on the shortlist.  I was also worried though that the Sportage mpg was quite poor when running mostly on petrol as it was AWD.  But it’s been removed now and I think it will be another Volvo that we get. It has all the toys we need although I think electric passenger seat adjustment has been dropped on these models which would have been a nice to have.
