2008	4dr Sedan turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Really not that great but part of that is I LOVE to kick in the turbo when getting on the interstate or pulling out from a stop sign. see full Volvo V50 review
2006	4dr Wagon 168-horsepower 2.4L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Keeping those five cyclinders fed burns fuel. On the highway, that's not a problem, but in stop and go traffic, MPG numbers go down and down. see full Volvo V50 review
