Drove a Citroen Grand Picasso from London to Leeds today at 75mph into a 40mph headwind and it averaged 58mpg. My V60 can't come close; in fact doing a miserable 45mpg last time and that was being driven like a vicar.
What are Volvo getting wrong? If Citroen can do it in something that has the aerodynamics of a brick; VW can get 76mpg AFTER the software fix, and a bloody Transit van can do 51mpg in the same conditions, Volvo must be able to bring it up to scratch. |

I guess some of you will think me quite sad for doing this but here we go anyway.
When ever I buy fuel I always record my mileage on my receipt, I then put miles, fuel and cost into a app called FUELIO. This works every thing out for you and records your total usage. All from when I bought the car back in October 2015 with 11500 miles on the clock. All figures per fill up. So here goes: Best 50mpg Worst 32.14mpg Total cost £1580.05 Fuel used 1384.13ltrs Fill ups 24 Total miles 10551. These are my miles Sorry if I'm teaching people how to suck eggs.

interestingly, if I compare top up manual method to the readout on the car computer, the top up method consistently gives about 1 MPG MORE than the car records....weird for it to be that way around.....
my average (solo) is 31 and my best was ona trip to heathorw where M1 and M25 meant an average of 50MPH which for that journey of 200 miles was 35MPG. my average towing is 22-24MPG depedning upon whether it is the A roads across country to Norfolk or the motorways to somewhere else.... As for brakes, the rear pads lasted 33,000 miles, second set lasted 30,000 miles. Fronts lasted 60,000 ish.

Of note was the fact that all three maintained about 2000 rpm on the motorway while the V60 with its extra long top gears was going about 1500, but still lost the battle. I suppose some element of it is the automatic gearbox, but it has a lockup in every gear for a reason... |

Unless you have more exact details on the other cars you mention it's not possible to do a comparison really. Roy

I'm tempted by the latest 0% deals on offer at the moment. My problem is that I now only do 8000 to 9000 miles a year so a petrol version is probably better.
Trying to track down real-world fuel consumption figures is proving difficult. I'm interested in the 2 litre T5 fwd XC60 auto. Can anyone help please? |
