Volvo V50
If you have been driving at least a mediumsized SUV, you may wonder whether sizing down is a good idea. There are plenty of reasons the V50 is a great move from a larger SUV.
1. You will most likely save money on gas.
Nearly a year ago, I switched from a Nissan Pathfinder to the V50. I loved my Pathfinder, and my husband still drives it. But Lordy, how much have I saved on gas?! When we bought the V50, it was about $48 to fill the tank in the Pathfinder, and about $33 to fill the V50! The gas lasts longer in the V50, too . . . meaning it takes me longer to run out of gas in it than it did in the Pathfinder.
Driving it reminds me of my old Acura Integra! The Pathfinder is a great truck, but it is still a truck. The V50 is so much easier and more fun to drive! Zip, zoom, zip!!
When I used to wash the Pathfinder myself before I got married, I would have to use a step ladder and a brush with a long wand on it to wash the roof. Climbing up and getting wet were unavoidable. But I can stand on flat feet and wash my WHOLE car now . . . the whole V50, that is!
1. The sticker on a brand new V50 will tell you MPG is 20/31. But some Volvo V50 owners say that they get even better mileage than that. Average tends to be 25.
2. Rear door and cargo space give the same type of storage as a small or medium SUV.
3. Head room and leg room are ample for the driver and passenger. A tall man can be comfortable driving this car. Head room: Front: 38.1 inches, Rear: 38.1 inches; Leg room: Front: 41.6 inches, Rear: 34.4 inches
4. Volvo's excellent safety ratings will most likely save you money on insurance premiums.
5. The leather interior is soft and luxurious. It smells good, too,[url=http://www.sport.fr/business/louisvuitton.html]louis vuitton pas cher[/url], like riding around in a giant Coach purse.
6. For fans of Japanesemade cars, you will appreciate this Swedish car's Japanese parts under the hood.
7. While they are pricey when they are brand new, you should have no trouble finding a deal on a used model, just a few years old. Check Autotrader.
8. The unique floating console makes a great place for a lady to hide a small purse, or a gentleman to tuck away his wallet while driving.
We have now driven our Volvo V50 wagon on several long road trips. For two adults and one five year old, the luggage/packing space seems to be exactly what we need, and no room to spare. This is partially due to the fact that we always take lots of food and toys with us everywhere we go. Leg room in the back seat can be really tight when the front seats are pushed all the way back, but our son is still small so that's okay for now.
When it comes to driving in a new city where I am not familiar with the streets, I love the smaller size of the car. Parking is easier with a smaller car, too.
