IntroductionThe S40 is Volvo’s premium small sedan. The all-new second generation S40 arrived in spring of 2004 as a mid-year model change with Volvo’s Intelligent Vehicle Architecture that integrates crashworthiness, design, and driving characteristics. The S40 was first sold in the U.S. for 2000 after being sold in Europe since 1995. Redesigned for 2008, the S40 received updates to the exterior inspired by the flagship S80. For the interior, the center console, armrest and handbrake were redesigned for more storage space. New safety features were added and the T5 received a power increase to 227 horsepower.
