Coolant levels are fine but it seems to reach operating temperature quickly.

I've owned and driven Volvo's for the past 47 years, starting with a 145S. Without exception they have all warmed up very quickly. The temp guage needle should quickly rise and then stay at the halfway position. My V40 even on the coldest winter morning blows warm air within half a mile down the road and toasty hot before a mile.
