The new Volvo XC90: powerful and green
Get excited, because now you can drive a powerful SUV, and you won’t be one of those people everyone judges for polluting the earth with all your CO2 emissions! Volvo Car’s all-new XC90 will offer an unrivaled combination of power and efficiency when it is revealed later this year. The seven-seater SUV offers drivers amazing power with very low C02 emissions.
“In the past you could either have power or low C02 emissions. But with the all-new Volvo XC90 you can have both.”said Peter Mertens, Senior Vice President Research and Development of Volvo Car Group. Volvo Car Group delivered an industry-leading reduction in emissions between 2012 and 2013 – an overall reduction of 8,4 percent.
The all-new Volvo XC90 range offers a selection of Drive-E engine options, all of which provide an outstanding combination of performance and fuel-efficiency. “With our new Drive-E powertrains, we have created a family of intelligent petrol and diesel engines with power curves that give exciting driveability at the same time as delivering world-class fuel economy,” adds Mertens.
Volvo will also be debuting its Twin engine. In the all-new Volvo XC90, the top-of-the-range Twin Engine will be a plug-in electric car, hybrid car and high-performance car rolled into one! With a push of a button the driver will be able to change to quiet and emission-free city driving on pure electric power.
