A plug-in hybrid car – how does it work?
A Volvo plug-in hybrid car has both an electric motor and a petrol engine – Twin Engine. For electric power, there’s a battery that can easily be charged at home or at a charging station.

Twin engines
The car combines both electric and petrol power. Seamlessly together, or separately to give you the most efficient driving experience.

Three drive modes
Our plug-in hybrid models offer a range of drive modes to suit every occasion – choose between full Power mode, Pure electric mode and the balanced Hybrid mode.

Battery charging
The large battery gives an electric-only range of around 40–50 km and can easily be charged at home or at a charging station. It’s also charged during driving every time you brake or slow down.
