The XC40 blends generous passenger space and a practical boot with a quality interior and top-notch safety. That makes it a hugely desirable product backed up with real substance. The T4 plug-in hybrid is a great choice for both private buyers and company car drivers.

Our preferred Plus model gets heated and electrically adjustable front seats, a reversing camera and a more efficient interior heating system that helps to improve the car’s driving range in winter conditions.

The one to go for if you're a company car driver. This plug-in hybrid model mixes decent performance (0-60mph in 7.5sec in our tests) with low CO2 emissions and a real-world pure electric range of around 20 miles.
