Volvo S90: real-world fuel consumption
Fuel meter readings from 4,389 Volvo S90 cars reported in 2024, split by engine.
Excluding plug-in hybrids, the average is 7.3 L/100 km on the road against 6.0 officially (22% above official).
Lowest real-world consumption: Diesel hybrid · 173 kW (235 hp) at 7.1 L/100 km.
Every engine: official vs real
| Engine | cars | Official (WLTP) | Real world | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hybrid · 145 kW (197 hp) | 567 | 6.7 | 8.4 | +25% |
| Hybrid · 184 kW (250 hp) | 323 | 6.7 | 8.6 | +28% |
| Diesel hybrid · 173 kW (235 hp) | 1,430 | 5.9 | 7.1 | +21% |
Engines with fewer than 100 cars in the data are not shown. Hybrid includes mild hybrids (48 V) as registered by the manufacturer.
Plug-in hybrid
| Engine | cars | Official (WLTP) | Real world | Electric share | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Plug-in hybrid · 228 kW (310 hp) | 1,311 | 0.9 | 6.3 | 26% | +646% |
| Plug-in hybrid · 223 kW (303 hp) | 551 | 2.1 | 6.9 | 20% | +237% |
The official WLTP figure for plug-in hybrids assumes a share of electric driving based on range. When cars are charged less often than assumed, real consumption is far higher.
By reporting year
| cars | Real world | |
|---|---|---|
| 2021 | 127 | 7.2 |
| 2022 | 507 | 7.2 |
| 2023 | 860 | 7.1 |
| 2024 | 2,496 | 7.3 |
The same cars are reported again each year with their lifetime totals, so years are not added together.
