I own a 2010 V70 and the acceleration seems a bit sluggish from a dead stop (at a light, etc...) however it's fine once at cruising speed.

I've been driving diesel cars for years and thought a gasoline car would have a bit more "pep" off the line. I realize it's a heavy car but was wondering what experience people have had with the V70s. It almost feels like the car is losing power until I get over 20mph. Perhaps it's just getting used to how the transmission shifts and a new car. Any thoughts?
