What Makes the Exceptional Volvo Plug-in Hybrid Range Possible?
Before diving into the Volvo plug-in hybrid range figures, it's helpful to understand the power behind the MPGe. Each of these plug-in hybrid models uses the same high-performance, high-efficiency powertrain: the T8 eAWD setup.
This plug-in hybrid powertrain begins with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with a turbocharger to increase its efficiency and power. An 18.8-kWh battery and paired electric motor join the party, forming the standard all-wheel-drive layout. All versions also use the automaker's eight-speed Geartronicâ„¢ transmission to smoothly deliver power at any speed.
The result is an impressive 455 horsepower, 523 pound-feet of torque, and 0-60 mph acceleration in as quick as 4.5 seconds (depending on the model). When comparing the impressive Volvo plug-in hybrid range figures, remember that each SUV delivers eco-friendly benefits with adrenaline-pumping power; whether driving into D.C. or spending a day at Civic Center Park, it's the perfect blend of excitement and practicality, with surprisingly high fuel efficiency.

Mohammed (Mo) and Daniel made my day. I bought a rare edition XC60 T8 Recharge and all process was smooth. Also, the car was fantastic. Daniel walked me through all the options, buying versus leasing, and allowed me to make a buying decision without pressuring me. I hate sleek salespeople, as I am an advanced pharma sales trainer; I cringe when they ask me probing questions. I visited a different Volvo location in Alexandria, and I didn’t like the salesperson, so I drove all the way to Rockville. Daniel was super professional, and then Mohammed helped me navigate the systems of the car. He spent plenty of time in the car with me, even resolving a connection issue with my phone. I am super happy!
