Volvo V40 photos leaked 27 | 02 | 2012

AS WE GET closer to the Geneva Motor Show next week, so the propensity of 'leaked' images continues. The latest photographs (see more official 'leaked' images of the all-new Volvo V40) give further illustrations of the all-new Volvo V40.

The latest pix, which also include the first interior shots, confirms that the V40 borrows styling cues from Volvo XC60 SUV. Confirmation of that is best seen in the new car’s front and rear light cluster designs.

The V40 is tipped to be the first car to get Volvo’s new range of modular four-cylinder VEA (Volvo Environmental Architecture) engines, which will be no larger than 2.0 litres in capacity.

The new V40 — which is set to replace both the S40 and V50 in Volvo’s line-up — will join other new Volvo models at Geneva, including a baby SUV, dubbed the XC40.
