Hello dear ones, since my V50 gets an eye-transplant today, I got a rental car and would like to announce here my comparison conclusion. Perhaps interesting for one or the other buyer. I have one: Volvo V50 2.0D 6-speed (136hp, 4-cylinder, circuit) Summum equipment with Bi-Xenon and Audio High-Performance car rental today: Volvo V50 2.4i Geartronic (170hp, 5-cylinder, automatic) Momentum equipment with RTI-Navi and Audio HP Although I’m only 20km away The first impression is usually the most important one. So, my opinion of the 2.4i GT: + The Navi is absolutely brilliant. I am very excited, was used to only PDA-Navi. + Automatic is nice to drive, switching is annoying sometimes. + The Dala-Tech covers are clearly more gripping than my leather seats. – That should be 170hp? – When stepping on the gas it takes a second of memory until the Moto reacts. Very unpleasant, I knew about my Leon turbo gasoline. My Diesel has – I missed sitting heating this morning. Very, thanks to -10°C. – the engine is quiet in idle mode, but as soon as you drive on the highway it would be too loud for me. Will be kicked very much. – Average consumption according to BC were 10,3 liters in the test car. I don’t know what time period. FAZIT: Due to the significantly lower perceived power and the annoying volume, the NO alternative to my 2.0D would be.
