For those of you with a V60 Cross Country, what is your observed average fuel economy (combined city/highway)?

At 1000 miles, I got 32 mpg (us) in Comfort mode. 30% in city, 30% on back roads (50mph) and 40% highway (70mph). Not too bad.

I think you will find that you need to change the poll I'm expecting 30+ will be a norm for easy driving
For a car with EPA ratings of 22 City/ 31 Highway, 25 Combined. Really?

For folks who are responding to the poll to be accurate you would need to calculate by hand. The onboard indicator is typically a little generous.

Average after 2000km is 9.9 L/100km (24 US mpg), and best mileage so far on a highway run at about 70mph is 7.6L/100km (about 31 US mpg).

This is based on onboard computer readout in freezing temperatures with winter tire and rim package from dealership.

Hoping to get under 7L/100km (34-35+ mpg) when the engine has more miles on it and in warmer temps and when I get the summer tires and rims back on the vehicle.
