What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Volvo S60 MPG
| Volvo S60 Fuel Economy: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 300hp 2.5L I5 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
For a sport-sedan, this car gets great mileage. 50/50 driving is an average 20.5 mpg for me. 90/10 driving is 24 mpg for me. I pick up speed quick and then light foot my way down the road. Average temperature is 32F which can impact my mpgs. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 300hp 2.5L I5 6-speed manual AWD |
For AWD, 300 HP, I can still get 24 mpg. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed automatic FWD |
7/100kms - excellent for a car this size |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed automatic FWD |
Surprisingly good fuel economy for a pretty powerful engine. 28+ on highway. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 197hp 2.4L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Good fuel economy from the 5cyl. |
