This paper investigates two spectral volume (SV) methods applied to 2D linear hyperbolic conservation laws on rectangular meshes. These methods utilize upwind fluxes and define control volumes using Gauss-Legendre (LSV) and right-Radau (RRSV) points within mesh elements. Within the framework of Petrov-Galerkin method, a unified proof is established to show that the proposed LSV and RRSV schemes are energy stable and have optimal error estimates in the $L^2$ norm. Additionally, we demonstrate superconvergence properties of the SV method at specific points and analyze the error in cell averages under appropriate initial and boundary discretizations. As a result, we show that the RRSV method coincides with the standard upwind discontinuous Galerkin method for hyperbolic problems with constant coefficients. Numerical experiments are conducted to validate all theoretical findings.
