Volvo Tweaks Powertrain of its PHEVs to Increase All-Electric Range
Volvo is making improvements to the system underpinning its Recharge plug-in hybrid models that will translate into increased driving range in all-electric mode.
The changes address one of the few perceived weak points of Volvo’s plug-in models, and it means the vehicles can reasonably be expected to provide all-electric capability for motorists doing short-to-average distance commutes day in, day out.

That will boost overall output to 455 hp, with torque climbing to 523 lb-ft.
