  • The V40 is available with a new, fully graphic instrument cluster. This active TFT (Thin Film Transistor) crystal display brings the interaction between car and driver into a new dimension.The instrument cluster expresses emotional functionality, always displaying the most important information in any given situation right in front of the driver.
    The driver can choose between three graphic themes.The Elegance theme has amber illumination that creates a traditional and calm aura.The Eco theme features green background illumination, designed to create an environmentally inspired look. An Eco meter is displayed on the left. The current and accumulated fuel consumption figures are displayed - and the driver is rewarded with a green light when eco-driving is optimal.
    The Performance theme has red background illumination, creating a sporty atmosphere.

      It has everything i want in a car and more, The practicality is amazing and so is the price, the T3 has 152hp which for a hatchback isn’t bad at all, So it’s economical and has some power available if you need it

I have TDI settlement money on the way and I may lease until the v40 arrives, that's how bad I've got the bug.

    If by "the rest" you mean including the Mazda RX-8, than we must agree to disagree. I love Volvos though, and Saabs alike - the new 9-5 is breath-taking - too bad they had to cut them off but I hear they might be saved (again). I'm looking forward to see this V40 dashboard integrated in the new S60 R Design. the performance mode would do so much better justice to that R-Design red vibe.

    Are these just themes (display colour and config only) or does this also adjust gear ratios as well? In my V40 D4 Luxury, I swear when in 'performance' mode the car is quicker to take off from traffic lights (whereas elegance feels as thought it smooths out the ride by changing gear ratios also - and ECO can be quite choppy at times as well..) but I could be imagining it all?

      These were two different graphic themes that used to be offered. The Elegance theme had amber illumination that creates a traditional and calm aura.

The current and accumulated fuel consumption figures were displayed, and the driver was rewarded with a green light when eco-driving was optimal.
