I have a PHEV V60 but the D5 version. I have had it 4.5 years and it has done 35k miles. Initially I had lots of motorway travel but now it is much more infrequent. I do more 15 to 50 mile journeys and rarely fill the tank with diesel, charging most days using either solar and/or cheap rate electricity.

It’s a good motorway cruiser or at least I think so and I frequently get 42 - 46 miles per gallon with just one charge and preconditioning before the start of the journey. This is largely motorways and A roads. My Volvo on Call reports my overall mpg at 100 mpg over all journeys.

Pure electric mode and a fully charged battery provides 22-24 miles in summer and 16-18 in winter.

Battery could do with being bigger, boot space obviously not the same as the ICE version and turning circle ain’t great.

Hope that helps
