  • Google-based infotainment
  • Only £296.04 a month

The Volvo XC40 is a common sight on UK roads, but that’s for good reason as it remains one of the most stylish cars the Swedish company makes. In a class obsessed with style, the SUV still makes quite a statement on the school run – but it doesn’t have to cost you a fortune.

Available through the Auto Express Buy A Car service, Leasing Options has a brand new Volvo XC40 for just £296 per month over a 24-month period, with an initial outlay of £3,847. Mileage is limited to 5,000 miles per year.

The specific model on offer is a B4 Plus, which features a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine with 197bhp, matched to an eight-speed automatic transmission. For context, this is the same amount of power as a Mk5 Volkswagen Golf GTI.

The XC40, though, is very much an SUV to drive, which means good visibility, a high driving position and light steering have been given priority over sporty handling. Performance is more than adequate in order to keep up with fast-moving traffic, though, with 0-62mph taking 7.6 seconds. It’s also relatively efficient, offering a claimed 43.8mpg.

The mid-level ‘Plus’ trim adds plenty of features, such as 18-inch alloy wheels, illuminated interior trim elements, blind-spot monitoring, keyless entry and a hands-free electric tailgate. These are in addition to the XC40’s generous standard equipment list, which includes LED headlights, a 12.3-inch driver’s display, plus Volvo’s excellent nine-inch touchscreen with Google-based software. 

The Car Deal of the Day selections we make are taken from our own Auto Express Buy A Car deals service, which includes the best current offers from car dealers and leasing companies around the UK. Terms and conditions apply, while prices and offers are subject to change and limited availability. If this deal expires, you can find more top Volvo XC40 leasing offers from leading providers on our Volvo XC40 page.
