. The package is available with any engine on the V40 and adds a unique body kit, wheels and interior trim.
"The V40 R-Design is designed around the performance-minded individual with a passion for those things that add extra spice to life. The meticulous attention to detail covers the expressive design as well as the agile, precise performance," said Lex Kerssemakers, Volvo strategy manager.
Polestar tuned the suspension for the R-Design package. The car is 10mm lower with stiffer springs and dampers and thicker anti-roll bars.
The R-Design package adds a high-gloss grill, rear diffuser, twin exhaust and either 17in or 18in wheels. Inside, it has seats with black Nubuck and perforated leather with an "R" logo, aluminum trim, a black headliner and black leather on the steering wheel, gear shifter and handbrake. Full leather seats are also an option.
The package is available on all of the V40's engines from the 115hp D2 diesel to the 254hp T5 petrol.
The R-Design package will cost about €2200 depending on market, and it will be available wherever the V40 is on sale. Volvo expects that 10% of V40 buyers will opt for the R-Design package.
