Volvo at last has a credible entrant in the premium compact hatch sector against cars like BMW's 1 Series and Audi's A3. Jonathan Crouch checks out the V40, the brand's most competitive car for years

Ten Second Review
As with most things in life, the best products take what seems a complicated bunch of requirements and reduce them to something very simple and elegant. The Volvo V40 is just such a car. The Swedish company has built a premium five-door family hatch that looks great, drives well, makes sense on the balance sheet and which has an amazing amount of safety equipment built into it. It really is as good as it looks.
