Cargo Area and Passenger Room

When comparing the Volvo XC40 to a BMW X1 lease, daily usability is an important factor. Let's look at the dimensions of both vehicles in our Volvo XC40 and BMW X1 review and lease comparison to help you choose the vehicle that offers the practicality that matches your lifestyle.

The Volvo XC40 is 174.2 inches long and sits on a 106.4-inch wheelbase. She measures 80.1 inches wide and 65.3 inches tall. This creates a cargo capacity of 57.5 cubic feet.

A BMW X1 lease will measure 175.5 inches long, 71.7 inches wide, and 62.9 inches tall. As you can see, the BMW X1 is narrower and shorter than a Volvo XC40, which is something you and your passengers will likely feel. When you consider that the cargo capacity is up to 58.7 cubic feet, it would seem that passenger space is compromised.

FAQ

The 2023 Volvo XC40 B5 AWD mild-hybrid SUV uses a supercharged and turbocharged 2.0-liter engine and a 48-volt mild-hybrid system to make 247 horsepower. This outstrips the 241 horsepower of the new BMW X1. You'll roar down the road in this powerful SUV.

Which car has more safety features between Volvo XC40 vs. BMW X1?

Both of these cars have a great lineup of standard safety features, but Volvo Cars offers more of them to drivers. Each SUV has forward collision warning, automated emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and blind-spot monitoring. Available features like the 360-degree parking camera for the Volvo XC40, however, push the Volvo SUV over the top in our Volvo XC40 vs. BMW X1 lease deals comparison.

Volvo Cars has an electronic speed limiter on the Volvo XC40 that causes the vehicle to top out at 112 miles per hour. The BMW X1 can achieve speeds of up to 149 miles per hour. At the end of the day, we see the speed limiter as a safety feature: unless you're at the track, cracking the three-digit mark on the speedometer is dangerous and irresponsible.
