2020 VOLVO XC40 Momentum

The auction record lists the vehicle’s primary damage as “FRONT END.” Stage 1 reports that the visible front-end damage—including the broken grille, damaged bumper, deformed hood edges, exposed front components, and deployed airbags—supports this classification. The auction condition is listed as “CERTIFICATE OF TITLE”; Stage 1 notes that this is a document status and cannot be verified from the available images. The front bumper and lower fascia have severe damage at both front corners, with torn and displaced sections, large openings, broken trim, and exposed internal components. The central grille is broken and open, leaving the radiator area visible. The front-left fender is moderately deformed near the headlamp and wheel arch, and sections of the wheel-arch trim are displaced, broken, or missing. The hood has raised, irregular front edges and uneven gaps near both headlamp and fender areas. The upper radiator-support area and surrounding panels also show bent-looking or displaced sections, with the radiator and fan area exposed. The extent of any underlying structural, cooling-system, suspension, steering, or mechanical damage cannot be determined from these findings and should be assessed through a detailed physical inspection. Multiple airbags are deployed, including the driver steering-wheel airbag, the front passenger dashboard airbag, and curtain airbags along the roof and side-window areas. The restraint-system components, related sensors, wiring, and interior mounting points will require inspection and likely repair or replacement before the vehicle can be considered roadworthy. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2020 Volvo XC40 Momentum SUV with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. It was manufactured by Volvo Car Corporation at the Ghent Plant in Belgium. One NHTSA safety recall is listed for this model and year: campaign 20V144000, concerning the forward-collision avoidance and automatic emergency-braking system.

The completion status for this vehicle should be confirmed with Volvo or an authorized dealer.
