Hi Cashwo

I currently have a XC60 B4 and after circa 3,000 miles I think my average is around 35mpg. There is quite a lot of motorway included in this figure though. On shorter journeys around town I am also averaging around 30mpg.

My brakes squeak a small amount just before coming to a stop / setting off. This was also the case on my previous XC60 B5.

Regards,

Interestingly before Christmas a dealer mentioned to me that Polestar upgrades to the B5 diesel were ‘coming soon’ in 2020. Anyone else heard similar or asked?

Regards,
Just of curiosity why did you change
from B5 to B4?

was your old one AWD or FWD?

All diesel mild hybrids are AWD now I believe?

Not sure I like how petrol and diesel are both badged as B5 and can be AWD or FWD, nothing like a simple naming scheme!

My wife's B4 Momentum is approaching 7k miles and fuel economy is really starting to improve. I managed a 125 mile round trip this week and average 46.7 MPG!

Hi sorry for the late reply.
I wasn't doing the mileage anymore.
I really wanted a petrol but the wait for what I wanted was a bit long
