Volvo XC40 named European Car of the Year

The Volvo XC40 has scooped the prestigious 2018 European Car of the Year award that was announced yesterday at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show.

The Swedish crossover has proved a hit since it was released, with the XC40 winning What Car?'s 2018 Car of the Year and the manufacturer also doing well with its larger XC60 and XC90 SUVs over in America. Volvo's cars have been praised for their design, connectivity and safety technology – the latter being one of the brand's main attributes.
