I feel that 100%, but I’m cool with seeing hybrids over EV’s. There’s no reason to go full EV especially if they catch on fire it takes over 10x the water to put out.. no proper recycling and it’s DISGUSTING what these big corporations are doing to mine the lithium with essentially slaves.
@@Wyatt907. lol hey I’m not hating. I’m ICE still I die I’m just saying since EV’s are the new thing I’d rather see hybrids vs just EV’s. With hybrids they also won’t manipulate the gas prices in the future like they MIGHT due to EV’s if they want to be some scum bags.
When are they going to put a full engine and batteries in a car? Like 500 miles range for the engine and 500 mile range for the batteries? Has anyone done this yet? I get that it would be expensive but it would be awesome!
The engine in the T8 used to have both a turbo and a supercharger. Recently, they removed the supercharger, using a higher power starter/generator instead.
My hybrid Maverick does most of my trips around town on electric only with the a/c running. Just over 50 miles the other day and I don’t have to plug it in.
Volvos are phenomenal and I absolutely love mine, but past 100k miles you’re gonna need to do some pretty hefty maintenance on it and not many shops will even attempt to work on it. Luckily I have a friend that will work on mine, but if I didn’t have him I would be spending atleast 1-2k on repairs every 6 months at the Volvo dealership.

I adore Volvos, I really do. One saved my life, I drive one, my parents drive them, they are bulletproof, brilliant cars. That being said… The new ones have four cylinder engines with massive reliability issues. Expect head gasket failures after 200.000km, critical components breaking because they are made from plastic etc. And we heard these tales from four different garages in two different countries. I wouldn’t buy a modern Volvo, if I didn’t change cars very quickly. And since I don’t like swapping cars like shirts…
Volvo's are always a good option if you want a classy and reliable car, driving a Volvo is like always wearing a nice suit
I thought Volvo is owned by the Chinese now. I don't know how reliable they'll be now compared to old Volvo.
Only the old
Those new are trash
Have they learned how to make their seats comfortable?
All this would be true for the old Volvos, nowadays they’re owned and made by china.

A 4 cylinder that makes 454HP stock, that’s badass

That's the power of a supercharger and a turbocharger combined. Also, that's the combined power. Only the engine alone has around 350-ish.
