Volvo Cars introduces V40 Cross Country Petrol at INR 27 Lac
(Ex-showroom Mumbai without Octroi) Mumbai, 20th April 2015: Volvo Auto India today announced the launch of the petrol variant of V40
Cross Country in India. The V40 Cross Country, India's most appreciated cross country vehicle since its launch in 2013, will now provide customers a more economical driving option.
The new petrol variant of V40 Cross Country continues to offer luxury, features and style in a compact
package. The new Cross Country petrol variant will be available in T4 Engine, 1.6 GDTi 4 Cylinder, 6
Speed Automatic transmissions with class-leading 180HP and a whopping 240Nm torque. The GTDi (Gasoline Turbocharged Direct Injection) concept would offer really low fuel consumption without
compromising on performance or driving pleasure.
Priced at Rs. 27 Lacs (Ex-showroom, Mumbai without Octroi) the Volvo V40 Cross Country will be retailed
through Volvo dealerships across the country starting today. The new Volvo V40 Cross Country is a unique blend of capable ruggedness and expressive elegance up to a new altitude by establishing a Cross
Country in the Premium C-segment.
Tomas Ernberg, Managing Director, Volvo Auto India said,"We are excited to bring the petrol variant of V40 Cross Country to India. Buoyed by the growing acceptance of V40 Cross Country since
June 2013 when we launched it here, we have now decided to bring in the petrol variant at a very
competitive pricing in order to increase our reach further. I believe our customers would be enthralled with this new car.”
Currently V40 Cross Country is the only car in India by Volvo Cars that is available in both the versions, in diesel and petrol. It continues to keep the brand promise of World-Class safety.
THE MOST POWERFUL ENGINE IN THE SEGMENT
The new Cross Country petrol variant will be available with class-leading 180HP and a whopping 240Nm torque. The new GTDi engines have a compact format and are made entirely from die-cast aluminum,
which gives low weight and good heat-dissipation capability. These are some of the requirements for good energy efficiency. The fuel injection system has been refined so that combustion can be regulated
with extreme precision, each injector centrally above the piston beside the spark plug. This gives
particularly uniform and finely atomised fuel distribution. In order to minimise petrol consumption and emissions, the fuel must be utilised as efficiently as possible.
EURO NCAP – BEST EVER RATING FOR V40
The all-new Volvo V40 has received the top rating of five stars in the Euro NCAP collision test. The overall
result is the best ever recorded by the institute.

automatically and restarts as soon as you accelerate. It reduces CO2 emissions by upto 8% and
increases mileage. Engine Brake Energy Regeneration – Transferring energy smartly. Whenever the accelerator or
brake is released while a gear is engaged, the braking energy is fed back to the battery. It reduces
load of the alternator, saves fuel and lowers emission. Personal Car Communicator with Keyless entry and drive – Has an operational range of 100

PREVENTIVE SAFETY
Laser Assisted Automatic Braking - City Safety up to 50 km/hr – This laser based feature senses
emergency situations beforehand and pre-charges the brakes to increase the impact of braking or even deploys the brakes if in case they aren’t timely applied.
Dynamic Stability & Traction Control (DSTC) –It helps the driver to keep the car under control
by averting scenarios such as spinouts, fishtails and roll overs. DSTC enabled with a gyroscope, senses a potential skid and counters this by reducing the engine’s power output or braking on one or
more wheels.
Intelligent Driver Information System (IDIS) – On road distractions are omnipresent and can
easily turn a normal situation into a critical one. IDIS constantly monitors your driving and delays secondary information from the car or one of its onboard systems – such as the GSM phone- when it
detects intense steering, braking or acceleration. Once it senses a return to normalcy, it displays the withheld information.
Turn-with Steering Lights (ABL) – Now for every curve see what lies ahead. The Active Bending
headlights with Dual Xenon technology expand your vision range by about 230% that gives you 150 feet more for braking. And using motorized lamps that turn up to 15 degrees in either direction, your
vision gets a 90% boost around bends at night. A daytime sensor disengages the adaptive function
during daytime to extend its lifespan. PROTECTIVE SAFETY
Side Impact Protection System – SIPS rapidly swings into action in the event of a side impact. It
reduces the effect of the crash by taking away the impact from the occupants and distributing it to
the body of the car. Also, the dual chamber side airbags spring up instantly to cocoon the occupant’s chest and hip, while the discharged inflatable curtain (IC) protects the heads of both front and rear
outboard occupants.
Whiplash Protection – In case of a rear impact, WHIPS operates by cradling the front occupant to
severely reduce neck injuries. The WHIPS equipped seat is outfitted with a metal piece that absorbs the energy from the collision and moves together with the occupant, while the headrest reclines to
further lessen the effect of the crash. Driver Knee Airbag – When it comes to safety we have all angles covered. The driver knee airbag
is a newly fitted safety feature that immediately swings into action in the event of a collision. This
protects the knee and also acts as a considerable cushioning system to the upper shin of the leg. It is
installed in the dashboard above the pedals and deployed together with the other airbags in the event of a frontal collision.
Safety Cage – The Patented safety cage with high usage of Boron Steel is one of the best in the
industry when it comes to withstanding impact.
