What Is A Plug-In Hybrid Car, Wagon, Or SUV?

More commonplace these days are plug-in hybrid vehicles. As the hybrid name may suggest, its powertrain is a combination of an internal combustion engine (ICE) and an electric motor (or motors in some cases). When hybrid vehicles were introduced over 20 years ago, the vehicle was responsible for switching between the combustion engine and electric motor when conditions allowed. Within those parameters, the on-board battery was charged mainly through regenerative braking technology, a sophisticated bit of engineering that captured the energy from braking dynamics, sending power back to the battery. While novel at the time, "regen-braking" was often harsh-feeling, and not always able to recharge the battery to the owner's requirements. As the name might suggest, the plug-in hybrid has additional charging capabilities via wall charging, which allows for total charging convenience. You can charge any of our luxurious hybrid SUVs from the same home outlet you'd use to charge your cell phone. Additionally, our plug-in SUVs also benefit from fast-charging compatibility. Regenerative braking is still an essential component of these electric cars and SUVs, but thankfully, you can adjust the strength of this feature to suit your driving style with a Volvo PHEV vehicle.

Is A Volvo Plug-In Hybrid Car Reliable?

In a word: Very. Every Volvo comes backed by a 4yr/50K mile warranty. Volvo makes a confident statement by doubling the warranty on the hybrid battery and hybrid components for an 8yr/100K mile period. Life with a plug-in hybrid Volvo is easy. The system is maintenance-free for you, and only an authorized PHEV technician will work on your vehicle's systems when it comes in for service.
