Volvo V60 Plug-in Hybrid: Eco, economy and diesel power

PaulChurchley

Good report but...

I thought this report was fair and many of the facts absolutely correct. The MPG is dependent on how far you drive on battery... the more you drive on battery (i.e. the more you plug in) the better the MPG.

However, the report says that its range is nearing the range of the Nissan Leaf. This is not really true. The Nissan Leaf has a real-world range of about 80 miles or 90 for the latest version.

In spite of that I would consider this as a replacement for our Vauxhall Ampera when it is time to change.
