How doe a loaded 2.4T perform? V70-XC70 01

posted by  someone claiming to be Avi Ziv on  Wed Mar 28 02:59 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hi,

We are close to buying a new V70. My wife would prefer the 2.4T because of the slightly softer suspension. We test-drove it and it performed fine. I wonder though if anyone can comment on the performance when it is full of passangers and luggage. We will be going on road trips with the family. Are we going to feel a significant slow down? The '01 XC is also the lightly-charged 2.4T engine and Volvo certainly advertises it as a "hauller". Any personal experiences?

Thanks,

Avi
