Nucleareskimo Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 The v8 is worse for gas mileage. My mom has one and in the city its usually about 16mpg(estimated, im not usually in that car in the city), and on the trip we just took the trip computer was showing 20 mpg on the highway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xraybob Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 Will the new 2007 6 cyl be a non-turbo and get any better mileage over the current 5 cylinder turbo?If so, I'll wait for them instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stick70 Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 If yer gonna get a XC90 it all depends on budget. I personally would get a used one. Iwork at Crown Volvo Chapel Hill in NC and the new 90s are crazy expensive. However, if you really want something special go for the ocean race edition. They run about $50-56k pricewise, and you can get a V8 and DVD player. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
