Caralogy Verdict
Suitable for

E-SUV among the best in segment: 2nd of 22 in Combined consumption (8.9 L/100).

Less suitable for

Frequent urban trips with stop-and-go. At 8,9 L/100 km on the combined cycle, consumption rises in the city without electric assistance. An HEV or PHEV would be more economical for this use profile.

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Combined consumption, the Porsche Cayenne Diesel (1st with 7.9 L/100) takes the lead. If the priority is 0–100 km/h, the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S (1st with 3.9 s) takes the lead.

Fuel consumption: 8.9 L/100 L/100 (2nd of 22 in Combined consumption)

The XC90 T5 AWD Geartronic consumes 8.9 L/100 on the WLTP combined cycle. The segment reference is the Porsche Cayenne Diesel (7.9 L/100).

Volvo XC90 T5 AWD Geartronic: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Where does the XC90 T5 AWD Geartronic rank in its segment?

Among the 22 E-SUV 2012–2016, the XC90 T5 AWD Geartronic ranks 2nd of 22 in Combined consumption (8.9 L/100, behind the Porsche Cayenne Diesel), 20th of 22 in 0–100 km/h (7.4 s, behind the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S).

How much does the XC90 T5 AWD Geartronic cost to run?

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Why not a Porsche Cayenne Diesel instead?

The Porsche Cayenne Diesel leads in Combined consumption (7.9 L/100 vs 8.9 L/100). The choice depends on your priorities: check the XC90 T5 AWD Geartronic vs Porsche Cayenne Diesel duel for a detailed comparison.

How does Caralogy calculate its figures?

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
