preparing and posting our 2004 2005 Volvo s40 review and hope that you find the

Taking our S40 on the road, new Volvo has tuned the 2004 2005 S40 for a fairly
taut ride, though comfort doesn't take a rear seat to performance.
All 2004 2005 Volvo S40's
are equipped with a turbocharged 170-horsepower 1.9-liter four-cylinder engine
powered through a five-speed automatic, which delivers power to the front
wheels. As with other new Volvos, safety is one of the 2004 2005 S40's greatest
assets. Airbags pop out of just about every surface, including Inflatable
Curtain head-protection airbags for front and rear passengers, side airbags for
front passengers and the usual dual-stage front airbags.
Whiplash-reducing Volvo
front seats and seat belt pre-tensioners add a generous level of safety.
Four-wheel antilock disc brakes are standard throughout the line, while
stability control is available as part of the climate package. The 2004 2005
Volvo S40 has earned a "good" rating in the IIHS' frontal offset crash tests.
The 2004 2005 Volvo S40 though affordable, allows for the acquisition of a
large number of optional features. Standard 2004 2005 Volvo S40 features are
rather generous, namely automatic climate control, a ski pass-through and a CD
player.
As for optional S40
equipment, there are individual features like power seats and leather trim. In
terms of packages, a Volvo climate package includes stability control and
heated front seats
