2022 Volvo XC90 Recharge: Efficiency meets impressive luxury

The 2022 Volvo XC90 Recharge returns with everything that has made the previous generation of this model so successful. The Volvo XC90 Recharge is the plug-in hybrid version of the luxury Volvo mid-size XC90 SUV. It gives owners all of the comfort and refinement as well as the premium driving experience of the traditional XC90, but it pairs it with an impressive plug-in hybrid powertrain which results in exceptional fuel economy.

When you drive a 2022 Volvo XC90 Recharge, you are not compromising on any aspect of the luxury experience that you are expecting from a vehicle like this. The 2022 Volvo XC90 Recharge shines in many areas,  and it also delivers better value than its direct competitors with a lower starting price.

Performance meets efficiency in the 2022 Volvo XC90 Recharge

The 2022 Volvo XC90 Recharge delivers both performance and fuel economy. It uses a very unique powertrain that pairs a 2.0-litre four-cylinder that is both turbocharged and supercharged with a 67-kW electric motor powered by a 11.6-kWh lithium ion-battery. Volvo is renowned for this unique engine which uses the benefits of turbocharging and supercharging to deliver a more linear driving feel and performance across the rev range in every and any situation.

This powertrain is powerful enough to power Volvo models on its own, but when you pair it with an electric motor and a powerful battery, you get the next level of performance. Combined, the internal combustion engine and electric motors generate 400 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque which is considerably more than the standard XC90, and on par with direct competitors in the plug-in hybrid midsize SUV segment.

This allows the 2022 Volvo XC90 Recharge to reach 100 km/h in just 5.6 seconds. The model also benefits from all-wheel drive as the electric motor powers the rear wheels as the gas engine powers the front axle. This translates into impressive stability in any conditions, and the XC90 Recharge is just as capable of facing difficult weather conditions as the traditional XC90.

Moreover, it doesn’t require any compromise on interior space, versatility or comfort. Where it stands out is in its ability to give the owner roughly 30 kilometres of all-electric driving range. In other words, you could do most of your daily commute without using a single drop of fuel, but you do not have to worry about going further in your XC90 Recharge as once the battery is depleted, the gas engine takes over. 

It offers the best of both worlds for just over $76,000. Give us a call today to learn more about the 2022 Volvo XC90 Recharge.
