Volvo V90: real-world fuel consumption
Fuel meter readings from 20,732 Volvo V90 cars reported in 2024, split by engine.
Excluding plug-in hybrids, the average is 6.6 L/100 km on the road against 5.8 officially (12% above official).
Lowest real-world consumption: Diesel hybrid · 145 kW (197 hp) at 6.4 L/100 km.
Every engine: official vs real
| Engine | cars | Official (WLTP) | Real world | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hybrid · 145 kW (197 hp) | 1,027 | 7.1 | 8.1 | +14% |
| Hybrid · 184 kW (250 hp) | 139 | 7.0 | 8.4 | +19% |
| Diesel hybrid · 145 kW (197 hp) | 5,075 | 5.8 | 6.4 | +11% |
| Diesel hybrid · 173 kW (235 hp) | 459 | 5.9 | 7.6 | +27% |
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 · 186 kW (253 hp) | 11,066 | 1.2 | 6.1 | 27% | +427% |
| Plug-in hybrid · 228 kW (310 hp) | 1,902 | 0.9 | 5.8 | 33% | +565% |
| Plug-in hybrid · 223 kW (303 hp) | 929 | 2.2 | 6.7 | 24% | +211% |
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 | 1,103 | 6.5 |
| 2022 | 2,847 | 6.4 |
| 2023 | 3,835 | 6.5 |
| 2024 | 6,769 | 6.6 |
The same cars are reported again each year with their lifetime totals, so years are not added together.
