Comfortable city driving
Our cars have many practical features for city driving, including advanced driver assistance technology, allowing for a more relaxed driving experience. It helps maintain a safe distance from cars in front through speed adjustments and gentle steering assistance for precise lane-centering. Additionally, it excels in managing stop-and-go traffic, issuing timely alerts when traffic begins moving again after a standstill.
City safety for kids
Volvo Cars’ commitment to safety extends to its youngest passengers. We, for example, offer carefully designed child seats and booster seats that provide protection for your child from infancy up to the age of 10. These seats offer optimal security for your children and fit perfectly within the interior of our city cars.

Carefully planned design
City cars may be compact, but Volvo's ingenious design ensures that space is optimised for both passengers and cargo. Every aspect of the minimalistic design is carefully considered, from the wide boot size, with a no-lip landing, to the smart cabin storage and the generous legroom that one might not expect from a smaller car.
Generous storage space
We are all well aware of the constant need for extra space when loading a car, regardless of its size. From groceries to weekend bags and prams, the list of essential items can seem endless. The Volvo XC40, while compact in appearance, is a smart storage marvel. It features a spacious flat rear compartment for easy loading and unloading, underfloor cargo space, and clever storage solutions for items like water bottles and phones. You can also add the option of going hands-free and opening the tailgate by simply putting your foot under the rear bumper.
Renewable materials with a stylish twist
When searching for a city car, it's essential to prioritise space and comfort. However, that doesn’t mean you have to compromise on style. In our smallest SUV to date, the EX30, you can select one of four different interior themes: Breeze, Mist, Pine and Indigo. Each theme draws its inspiration from the serene beauty of Scandinavian nature and boasts innovative craftsmanship utilising renewable and recycled materials.
Silent and comfortable ride
The standard fixed panoramic roof of the Volvo C40 features laminated and tinted glass, which effectively shields against glare and UV radiation. This unique roof design creates a naturally illuminated cabin environment. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in regulating temperature, supporting a comfortable interior climate and reducing noise, ultimately contributing to a serene driving experience.

The benefits of going electric in the city
Urban areas often grapple with pollution and environmental challenges. Transitioning to electric city cars presents a more sustainable solution that aligns with the need for cleaner, greener cities. At Volvo Cars, this is the future of driving, and we plan to be a fully electric car company by 2030.
Charging an electric or plug-in hybrid city car
Charging a Volvo in the city has never been easier thanks to a growing network of charging stations, and you can find them using your car’s smart centre display. The Volvo Cars app gives you handy reminders and directions to the closest charging spot. So, top up your battery on the move with ease, whether it’s for long trips or when you need that little extra boost.

Smart and connected city cars
Technology and infotainment are at the forefront in the bustling world of city cars, offering not just compact size, but also smartness and connectivity. This provides an ideal blend of convenience and entertainment for urban dwellers.
Advanced sound systems
We understand the importance of music in your city driving experience. A well-chosen podcast or playlist can significantly ease the frustration of a traffic jam. That's why we've teamed up with Bower & Wilkins and Harmon Kardon to deliver exceptional sound systems in our cars. These brands are committed to providing you with an extraordinary audio experience that goes above and beyond the ordinary.
