Volvo S40

Compact sport sedan shoppers will rejoice in the fact that every
Volvo S40 for 2011 is now equipped with powerful turbocharged performance. The simplified model lineup encompasses the front-drive S40 T5 and its dynamically dashing sibling, the T5 R-Design. The former naturally aspirated base model S40 2.4i has been discontinued. Guaranteed to deliver a rush, the standard 2.5-liter five-cylinder turbocharged engine develops 227 horsepower and 236 lb.-ft. of torque in both the T5 and T5 R-Design models. A five-speed "Geartronic" automatic transmission with "Auto-Stick" function is now standard on all S40s for the 2011 model year.
