Why was the Volvo V40 discontinued?

[SanValerie]

Here are the specific reasons for the discontinuation of the Volvo V40: 1. The Volvo V40 is a compact hatchback. Although hatchbacks have advantages such as being lightweight, convenient, flexible to use, easy to park, and economical, Chinese consumers generally consider hatchbacks to be less grand, with a short and disproportionate body shape that does not align with mainstream Chinese aesthetics. The passenger space and trunk are integrated in hatchbacks, and the trunk space is usually relatively small. 2. The discontinuation of the Volvo V40 is also related to its product competitiveness. The Volvo V40 released updated models every year, but the updates showed almost no changes in appearance.
