Pros Cons of Volvo XC40

Pros

  • Smart Design
  • Powerful Turbo Petrol Engine
  • Plenty Of Safety Tech As Standard

Cons

  • Touchscreen Is Cumbersome To Use
  • Interior Doesn't Feel As Plush As Rivals
  • Road Noise In The Cabin At High Speeds

Verdict

Volvo may not frequently shake up the Indian market, but when it does, it ensures all eyes are on it. True to its brand, the car comes equipped with an extensive array of standard safety features, with a single India-specific variant that's fully loaded. While it comes with a premium price tag, it positions itself as the most accessible premium EV available. Clearly, Volvo has strategically played its cards to offer a compelling blend of safety, luxury, and value.

Pros Cons of BMW 5 Series

Pros

  • Great Ride And Handling
  • Gets Both Petrol And Diesel Options
  • Premium Interior With Smart Features

Cons

  • Petrol Trim Only Comes In One Variant
  • Second-Row Not Good For 3 Occupants
  • Cabin Design Looks A Bit Dated

Verdict

The 5 series continues to impress with its dynamic capabilities but a more contemporary face and tech laden cabin has made the car even more appealing than before. It starts at ₹ 62.90 lakh for the Petrol version while the 520d is priced at ₹ 63.90 lakh. Top of the line 530d will set you back by ₹ 71.90 lakh (all prices ex-showroom). It is going up against the likes of the recently launched Mercedes E-class, Audi A6 and Jaguar XF.
