Defect rate by model year

Comparison of Volvo C40 versus average car of the same model year.

The Volvo C40 is a compact electric SUV that represents the Swedish manufacturer's commitment to sustainability and modern design. Launched in 2022, the C40 is built on the same platform as the popular XC40 and offers a blend of functionality and style, appealing to eco-conscious consumers looking for a premium driving experience.

In terms of reliability, the 2022 Volvo C40 performs notably better than the average car of the same model year. With approximately 57 defects reported per 100 inspections, it falls 18% below the average of 70 defects for vehicles in the same category. This suggests that the C40 demonstrates a solid level of reliability in its inaugural year, which is encouraging for potential buyers.

However, certain recurring issues have been identified, primarily related to tyre conditions. Common problems include inadequate tread depth and tyres with bulges or cuts that could compromise safety. While such tyre-related concerns are not unique to the C40, they highlight the importance of regular maintenance and inspection for any vehicle.

When considering the performance of the C40 relative to other years, the 2022 model stands out positively. As it is the only year currently available in the data, ongoing monitoring will be essential to determine if this trend continues in future iterations.
