'06 V50 T AWD: A dog compared to '96 850 T? V50

Hello,
I have a '96 850 Turbo and am looking for a newer, smaller model. I drove a 2006 V50 T AWD and, while it drove nicely, it was a dog compared to my old 850. Honestly, it was like running on 4 cylinders.
My question: Don't these have the same engine and shouldn't the car that's 1 years newer be peppier than my old 850?
