Does the Volvo XC40 have adaptive cruise control?
Normally I won’t touch anything Swedish, be it meatballs, lingonberries, Ikea furniture, members of ABBA, or Tomten (the Swedish Santa Claus). But I’m intrigued by the Volvo, as we like to take long road trips during the summer. Does the Volvo XC40 have adaptive cruise control?

Yes, the Volvo XC40 SUV does have adaptive cruise control.
Adaptive cruise control is a setting that not only maintains your vehicle’s set speed but also automatically adjusts that speed based on the speed of the vehicle in front of you. So if that car slows down, adaptive cruise control will slow your car down in response.
On the other hand, regular cruise control simply maintains your vehicle’s set speed. If the vehicle in front of you slows down while on regular cruise control, it is up to the driver to slow the car down.
Volvo’s adaptive cruise control works with the Swedish brand’s Pilot Assist by using a camera and radar to scan the road in front of you, automatically adjusting your speed relative to the vehicle in front of you. Pilot Assist is also capable of assisting your steering to keep the Volvo in its lane. No member of ABBA—let alone Tomten—would be able to help you in such a helpful way.
