T5 Experiences Mileage V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray N. on  Tue Feb 10 10:18 CST 2004 [RELATED]

My 1998 S70 T5M sees 25.4 MPG with about 85% freeway miles.
When that was more like 25% freeway it was about 20.5 mpg.
Note that a 98 Sedan is lighter then the wagon (but I think
the wagon is more aerodynamic) so "your milage may vary".

Performance is very good. Traction is pretty much the limiting
factor for acceleration since it can easily spin the tires in 1st
or 2nd gear.
