Top Speed?? V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray N. on  Fri Aug 2 09:00 CST 2002 [RELATED]

They are electronically limited so it depends on the year and
the country. alldatadiy.com has this for my 98 T5:

Max. speed: 240 km /h (149 mph) (manual), 230 km/h (143 mph) (automatic).
Speed limited by engine management system to 250 km/h (155 mph).

Although I suspect max speed is really limited to 143 for U.S. market.
In 1999 Volvo dropped the max speed to something like 130 mph
for U.S models.
