XC60 B4 AWD diesel emissions
I was very close to ordering an XC60 D4 AWD Momentum. My company car allowance restricts me to 145g/km and the D4 AWD Momentum squeezed under that at 144g/km. I read that the mild hybrid D4 engine was being released as the B4 and assumed that the emissions would be lower. I was hoping that an R Design mild hybrid even with it’s larger tyres would better my 145g/km limit.
The Volvo website now lists the B4 and it says that both the B4 Momentum and B4 R Design have emissions of approx 147g/km. I’m both gutted and surprised that the mild hybrid version has greater emissions. Can anyone confirm that the emissions for an AWD XC60 are now all north of 145g/km and out of curiosity does anyone know why the figment of a mild hybrid system has worsened the emissions figures. Thanks. |

According to the MY2020 price list, the B4 Momentum AWD Automatic is quoted at 139.

What Car says the same. However the configurator, says approx 147g/km depending on options. “Approx” is also not very useful as the problem I have is that over 145g/km the expenses police in work will stop a £7.2k per annum car allowance which is a chunk of money to risk.
If the government vehicle certification agency, when it lists the car has it at 139g/km then I should be home and dry, but currently its not listed. I’ll use the Volvo price list to get the discussion going with the expenses police, so thanks for that |

Not sure where you got your numbers- Volvo France lists XC60 D4 at 129g/km.. Even my (non-AdBlue..) D5 is just below your magic number at 144g/km.. The AdBlue version D5 is 147g/km though.

That's odd.. You'd think that UK should be using a same testing cycle (WLTP) as the rest of Europe..
https://www.volvocars.com/fr/configu...design#engines For eg, Volvo Netherlands has the same numbers as France: https://www.volvocars.com/nl/car-con...design#engines As does Volvo Germany: https://www.volvocars.com/de/konfigu...design#engines

I've just checked the small print on the price list link and these say that the emissions data is preliminary. I wonder whether the Volvo web site has the more upto date figures. The UK website does say the figures are approx. I did try asking Volvo UK about emissions for the D4 but they just pointed me to the dealer, I expected Volvo UK to be more expert than the sales guy in the local dealer. Still unsure what to rely on.

I have just checked the MY20 price list and the B4 C02 emissions are as follows:-
Momentum 139 Momentum Pro 139 R Design. 139 R Design Pro. 145 Inscription 139 Inscription Pro 142 So it looks as though all models come within your company’s criteria.
