As an option, you have the possibility to order the climate package, including the steering wheel and the heated rear seats.
The Plus version
On the Plus version side, you'll get the 360-degree camera, HomeLink Garage Door or LED fog lights as an extra. As of this version, you will be able to equip your Volvo C40 2023 with 20" wheels!
