Hi, I’m thinking of buying a 2019 S60 T5 R-Design, does anyone know the real world mpg’s.

Also any bad experiences?

Thanks 🇬🇧

I’ve got a S90 T5. Long run in ECO, 45mpg, avg around town, shorter journeys, 30, over 20k miles avg is 38, S60 is smaller and lighter so should be slightly better.

That’s pretty good 👍 . The S90 is a heavier car as well. Decision’s !?

If you do go for it, Polestar it, makes a world of difference. Peachy engine that loosens off a lot at 20k miles.

Polestar upgrade, basically a remap from Volvo, doesn’t affect
Mpg or warranty but changes gearbox map for the better and gives the car a far better personality.

Ask your local Volvo dealership, it’s on offer sometimes.

Did the MPG get better, I read in Sweedspeed forum some guy said he got better fuel economy.

No idea as it was installed from new. If it does improve it, which I doubt, it would be marginal
