Does the T5 momentum come with navigation, rear Aircon & reverse camera? Cus sgcarmart states unknown for both navigation & rear Aircon, and no for reverse camera. However, when I go to Volvo website configurator, it comes with standard features like rear park assist so I guess there is reverse camera.

[Treestar]

I was told reverse cam n navigation is only fr R design as it is link to the Pro edition n pilot assist suite. Rear ac vent is standard fr both Momentum n R design..actualli if u can afford R design item fr item is worth the premium

[Mockngbrd]

We went for Momentum because we didn't really want an SUV with "Sporty" suspension and cannot tahan the fake exhaust. The only thing we like was the black roof and black front grill. But roof can just go wrap when we get bored with our standard color. 

Spec-ed ours with the pano sunroof (we pay 1k extra for this), nav (dealer throw in), reverse cam (dealer throw in), 360 cam was bit too ex an optin for us sadly. Still waiting for them to get back to us wrt Pilot assist. Dealer also throw in the other usual things, window tint, volvo floor mat. 

Rims i'll prob go find an aftermarket set of 19. Got my eyes on a set of ERST wheels. If SG cannot find or bring in, maybe go Japan carry back. From what i hear, the 20s ride not so good. 19s seem to be the best compromise.

The standard "bare bones" Momentum not bad already.

Navigation is not really necessary since there's phone Google map. However, reverse camera for me is a good feature to have and I think should come as standard for luxury car since most non luxury car brand already have this as standard. I think R-DESIGN is more worth it as well but $200000 is hard to justify for a compact SUV for me. Anyway thanks for the answer!

Nice specs, hope you enjoy your xc40. Volvo's design after Geely acquired them is one of the best in the business.

Good choice...goes well with the black and grey.

 

Also, 19” seems just right for the XC40 size. 20” would look out of proportion. I’ve seen mecan with 22”

The new BMW x2 selling at $193k which is right smack into xc40 territory n being 2 litre, it’s surely worth a look but then again I’m not sure if specs wise this xc40 is more complete? Anyway, it’s always good for consumers when more choice are available.

[Mockngbrd]

Depends what you want in a car. For a SUV type car, i want comfort.

Bmw is a driver car..alot of driving feel n gd rd dynamics but maintenance fr my experience as ex bimmer owner jialat..alot of leaks n cracks n sensor issues..and quite bare bone at base price as compared to a the entry momentum spec which is far better equipped den my current merc..understd JD powers in US rate volvo as 2nd top most reliable brand

Yeah I agree, it all comes down to preference anyway. And wow what a good price you got for your R-DESIGN. How's your ride so far for XC40?

[Treestar]

I don't own a XC40 haha. I was just looking around several forums and it caught my eyes out of all the compact SUV out there. R-DESIGN is good looking especially the front grill & the rims.
