XC90 T8 Twin Hybrid

[JamesK]

I'm staggered the new petrol is that bad! I have a previous gen V8 XC90 and my ownership economy is around 20mpg, and that's with the old 6 speed box!

I've test driven the new diesel and didn't hate it as much as I thought I would but that really does seem poor for a next gen petrol offering.

To be fair, I had been "hoofing it" a fair bit in the run up to that data shot, but I've been quite surprised at just how torquey the VEA engine is!!

The fuel economy of the 2L petrol engine is not very good at all. I have a T6, which is the same petrol engine as in the T8, and get about 20mpg.

20mpg? You're doing quite well!!



Apologies for the fingerprints!

Hmm mine isn't too bad on fuel:
