Volvo Is Ready to Unveil yet Another Hybrid
Volvo Cars is ready to reveal the world's first seven-seat vehicle, that is a plug-in hybrid. The ride will be first introduced in the United States and the model is XC90 T8 Twin Engine. The hybrid is powered with Volvo's 2.0-Liter supercharged and turbocharged Drive-E powreplant and with a rear axle electric motor. With the cooperative power of both power supplies the car is capable of producing 394 hp (289 kW) and goes from 0-68 mph in 5.7 seconds.
The brand's latest model will come with three selectable driving modes, that allow smooth performance and flexibility on every terrain and occasion. The modes are:
Hybrid: This is the default mode, often referred as the "casual" mode and brings alternate power from both motors and has the greatest fuel consumption efficiency.
Pure electric: Obviously the mode, that uses energy only from the electric motor. It is a wonderful city-drive based mode and is capable of going for about 17 miles without recharging.
Power mode: This is the special mode, that utilizes both the combustion engine and the electric motor. It works as this. When both engines are started, the system takes advantage of the electric motor, which has faster response time until the combustion engine gets up to speed. This is the ideal mode if you need better torque at lower revs.
The XC90 T8 design really highlights the sporty performance with incredibe features, that include the piano black grille, R-Designed front spoiler, dual tail pipes, silver trim. The cabin is really a comfortable place and welcomes the drivers with Nubuck and Nappa leather clothing.
With all the wonderful features, the XC90 TB has its well-deserved positive feedback. In fact, there is large interest in buyers, who already made tremendous preorder pays.
Soon the XC90 will be completely unveiled and we will watch with interest everything that it has to show us. Keep with us for further information.
