New Volvo Hybrid Models at Gerald Jones Volvo

Volvo has pulled together an amazing lineup of cars and SUVs. Their luxury vehicles have a unified design strategy that combines excellent interiors with a powerful engine selection. One of their more interesting changes has recently been rolling out a hybrid drivetrain available on almost all of their vehicles. That means that they have many choices for someone interested in buying a luxury hybrid vehicle. Read on to learn more about their hybrid choices.

Volvo Hybrid Car

Volvo makes a few different car models, but just one is available with the Recharge hybrid engine. It's the S90, a midsize car, and the biggest car in the current Volvo lineup. It has a beautiful design and a long list of interior features. The Recharge engine is also the most powerful of the engine choices, so the V90 leaps off from a stop-- it is one of the faster calls in the luxury midsize category, with 400 combined horsepower. It gets a total of 60 MPG combined between highway and city driving once you account for the gas engine and electric motor. It's a fun drive, and the incredible interior makes this highly competitive for the hybrid car class.

Volvo Hybrid SUVs

Two of Volvo's three SUVs have the Recharge engine as an option. The first is the XC60, a compact SUV. The XC60 is one of the top-rated luxury SUVs. It has an extremely comfortable interior with some of the best seating in the class. It also comes with a long list of driver assistance features. Although the XC60 is an SUV, the Recharge engine is still the second most powerful engine in its lineup, and it can move. The XC60 has an excellent cushioned ride, too, so that power doesn't lead to a rough ride.

The second SUV is the XC90. It's a midsize SUV with two rows, perfect for your carpool from Evans to Augusta. It can be configured to have six or seven passengers, and the interior is exceptionally roomy through all three rows. The Recharge is the biggest engine available for it, and even though it is the biggest platform that is holding the Recharge, it still has a lot of pickup on top. It's a great choice if you are in the market for a three-row SUV because there aren't many of them with a robust hybrid engine, especially in the luxury class.

Why Volvo Hybrids?

Volvo's Recharge engine is a powerful one. It's rated for 400 horsepower, which feels amazing in a car, and still packs a punch on SUVs. It's highly efficient, and the turbo component means the acceleration is on point, while the changeover from gas to electric is seamless. On top of that, the Volvo lineup's quality level is so good that they are beautiful even before considering the hybrid drivetrain, so it doesn't feel like any compromise to take one for the hybrid configuration.
