Volvo V70 T5 - Great mileage V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be John on  Mon Jul 12 03:49 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Just thought I would put a post on here as to my Volvo V70 2001 Mileage as it has been great. I have a 5 speed which ROCKs. I recently drove from NH to Raleigh, NC as I am moving down here. I averaged (According to the trip computer and my own caculations backed it up) 32.3 mpg. I was using 92 octane most of the trip and average about 70-75 on I-95 South. I think this is pretty impressive given the performance and size of the vehicle. No doubt that the 5 speed helps in the perfomance and mileage category. I also use Mobil 1 synthetic.

My 99 S70 which was driven as well averaged about 34 but this was only my caculations as it doesn't have a trip computer.

John-
