XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Volvo V40 CROSS COUNTRY 2013-2019

The V40 Cross Country rides around 40mm higher than the standard V40 hatch, a deliberate Volvo decision to give the car its crossover identity – but one that comes at a cost. The extra height loads more body roll into the front MacPherson strut geometry, and the suspension tuning that followed Volvo’s choice leans toward understated compliance rather than any kind of driver feedback. On a fast A-road that feels acceptable. On a track day or a properly spirited B-road run, you’ll feel the slack in every direction change.

These XYZ Racing Super Sport coilovers are the direct response: adjustable ride height brings the V40 Cross Country back toward a sensible stance, and 36 damping positions give you the control to run the car as it should feel rather than as Volvo’s crossover-market calibration dictated.

What this coilover does for your 2013-2019 Volvo V40 Cross Country

Lowering the Cross Country corrects the geometry that the factory height compromises: the front struts gain mechanical advantage, body roll drops noticeably, and steering weight becomes more honest. The 36-way damping adjustment – spread across the full range, not clustered at either end – means the setup that works for a Sunday morning on quiet B-roads is a few clicks from the one that suits a faster track session. The Super Sport’s specification covers both daily and weekend circuit use, and that range is credible: it handles broken UK road surfaces without the jarring that many stiffer aftermarket dampers introduce, while still offering enough resistance to keep the body under control when the speeds rise.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport is XYZ Racing’s fast-road and weekend track specification, covering daily commuting and circuit sessions from the same setup. Thirty-six-way damping adjustment means the settings across the range are genuinely distinct, not nominally different – you feel the difference between positions when the road changes character. Ride height is adjustable, letting you set the car’s stance to match your build targets and the conditions you encounter most. The construction specifically addresses the discomfort that comes from running stiffer dampers over rough or broken surfaces, a real concern for a car that spends serious mileage on UK roads. For daily driving and weekend circuit work, the specification has enough range to serve both without asking you to swap parts between uses.
