About The Volvo XC60 Recharge

You get everything you already love about the XC60, but with 35 miles of all-electric range and a fantastically exciting 455 horsepower. Coming in at 63 MPGe, there are zero compromises with the XC60 Recharge.

Drive at a steady speed and keep a good distance to other vehicles and objects in order to avoid braking. The hybrid battery is recharged during braking by braking gently with the brake pedal. High speed results in increased energy consumption since the wind resistance increases with speed.

The odometer is a measurement device that shows the total distance travelled by the car. It's found on the car's dashboard.

What is considered high mileage for a Volvo vehicle? As is evident by the other two longevity-based questions, a Volvo vehicle will last you for years if not decades of driving and for a couple hundred-thousand miles. High mileage is hard to define, but there is a club with its own definition.

This may happen for digital and mechanical dashboards alike. The cause can be cable damage, faulty odometers, electric issues, or fraud. The odometer is a crucial element, and its correct functionality is the priority.

In the Volvo Cars app, you can see the position of your car on a map. The map also shows your own position, i.e. the position of your mobile device.

All 2015.5 and newer Volvos that are equipped with the Sensus Connect system have the integrated Volvo On Call system. By pressing the integrated On Call button from inside your Volvo, you will reach a Volvo Roadside operator who will guide a recovery service to your current location.

Can you answer the phone in the car? ›

A quick and easy way to remember the rule is that the phone should never be in your hands while the engine is running. So texting, Snapchatting, or picking up a call is a bad idea – even answering quickly to say “I'm driving, I'll call you back!” is a big no. You should simply let it go to answerphone.

Acceleration is insane when the hybrid batteries are charged, and even good when you are running on gas only. Fuel economy is rated at 63 MPG-e when there is hybrid battery power, and 28 MPG combined once the hybrid battery is depleted. The XC60 Recharge will tow 3,500 pounds.

The gas/electric combination (455 hp and 523 lb-ft) is aided by an 18.8-kWh battery, which helps the XC60 plug-in hybrid offer an estimated 35 miles of electric-only range.

While driving, the gas and electric engine switch back and forth between power sources based on the driving situation. During de-acceleration, the electric engine captures kinetic energy and sends it back to the battery, charging it up as you slide to a stop sign.

Specifically, models with the Recharge RWD powertrain deliver an EPA-estimated 297 miles¹ of range, while models equipped with the more powerful Recharge Twin AWD powertrain deliver an EPA-estimated 257 miles¹ of range.
