Spy photographers caught a look at the XC40's interior and its impressive. Anyone who already looked at the S60 and other current Volvo models will find the XC40 to be a refreshing look. Biggest and most attractive take away here is the Tesla-like infotainment screen.

What do you like about the interior?

Not Tesla like just yet but almost there, those guys have some ridiculously sized screens in their models haha. But I get the point.

I feel like that center console was just an after thought though... like they spent all of the R&D getting the big screen in there and said alright, throw everything else in with whatever you could find.

Well keep in mind that this is a test mule so we might not be seeing the complete interior, although I'm willing to bet that screen will stay. Just don't expect the production model interior to deviate much away from this. It's similar to other Volvo models, S90 being one of them although is the brands flagship model.

Essentially this is going to be it.

Do you notice the gaps around the top of the screen edges? Probably just a temporary setup and trim will be following after?

After seeing the latest video from Volvo about the interior space we can say that the about photo's are not what we are getting as interior.
Curious of how it's going to look.. At least we are getting the same size touchscreen en dashboard screen as the XC60..

All more I could ask for is more color, much like what the S90 has. Its the first "new" Volvo I seen and set my expectations of the brand, hence why i'm here. Looking for enough S90 DNA in this XC40... a fair expectation.

S90 Interior:

You can see in the configurator that it will not look like this.

Inscription will get drift wood inlay but that’s it. Momentum aluminum inlay.
No wood slides in middle console.

S90 off course highest level car.
XC40 is placed below XC60 so quality will be less then the 90 and 60.
