For the Volvo, the all new XC90 T8 plug-in hybrid is a technological innovation and the way it drives, simply awesome. It charges from the mains like the majority of plug-in hybrids but unlike the others, it is arguably elegant and superbly refined choice.<\/p>\n

It is a comfortable and refined luxury SUV<\/a><\/strong> that if runs on a petrol engine, it plunges the economy figures but if you opt for a D5 diesel engine, it is even more efficient than ever before.<\/p>\n

How a Technological showcase?<\/span><\/h3>\n

The new XC90 T8 is a technological showcase, it acquires the technology from V60 and then further refined to make it an elegant SUV.<\/p>\n

It is powered by a 2.0 litre turbocharged Volvo engine<\/a><\/strong> which generates a 320bhp of power from petrol. It is joined by an electric motor of 87bhp.<\/p>\n

Power Delivery<\/span><\/h3>\n

The combined power output of the engine and the motor is rated at 376bhp rather than 407bhp. The extra power has been subjected to the energy losses in the drivetrain. A rotary selector on the central console allow the drivers to select you the energy from the petrol-electric setup.<\/p>\n
