Just my own humble opinion but I think Volvo cars have always been one of the most under stated, high quality stealth cars out there. You get bmw power, landrover-like abilities in 4 wheel drive, and you can pull up to any venue looking like you're a "middle of the road" kinda guy (Exactly the way I keep most things in life tbh). And it just so happens that if you flick her into sports mode 4WD and stamp on it she will get you to a hundred miles an hour Really Fkin Quickly! And in the unfortunate event of you having a car crash there's no safer vehicle to be in than a chunky 5 star safety rated volvo (I'm just saying yo, a 30-50mph crash and the odds of you walking away with no injuries is actually really good!) Just some factual facts f4lrom the factory

Imagine having a trim level that sounds similar to a type of hosiery Overall a great car

T8 is a rocket...

There's no more supercharger for the extended range (18.8kWh) T8.

Does that mean it’s the T5 engine + electric motor then?

@@Adamlllllllllllljjjljljjjjj Some misconceptions about the extended range 18.8kWh T8. 1) The combined power output depending on market and engine code is 455hp-462hp, while torque is the same at 709nm. 2) The engine block is not the T5 block with more power even though it is only turbocharged now. It is still the same T6 block with the same B03G turbo minus the supercharger, and double water jacket; where else the T5 block is a K03.3 and single water jacket design. 3) The updated block also has reduced friction compared to the ones in the earlier T8s. The new drivetrain’s updated tune is different only in a way where by the newer ERAD fills the low end instead of having the supercharger. 4) There is no also electrically driven supercharger like the B6 Mild Hybrid.

Yes, we thought so too. But the official as-tested spec sheet from Volvo for this press vehicle said ‘turbo & supercharged’ 2.0L petrol. We’re simply quoting what it says.

can I just have the fuel and range economy without x times y over z phe-v sqr root over pie if you go uphill = "x" if you go downhill "y" full engine on recharge = "z". I just want to know how far it will go on battery and then what is the ecomony after battery expires on a trip of say 400klms city/hwy? AND 50KLMS TO WORK AND 50KLMS HOME = ???? DAILY EXPENSE FUEL AND ELECTRICITY ONLY. Absolutely no Maker will give us what we want to know, it is a fiddle here and fiddle there and nudge nudge wink wink. I think people want to know or I will wait another year or two to even consider one, when customers will have given reviews and we get proper and accurate information without all the double talk, dodging and weaving.

Official fuel economy: 1.6L/100km Economy during test: 6.5L/100km? couldn't lie straight in bed

@@ricglass5782 Of course this 6.5l/100 includes the power runs. The official 1.6l/100 is based on an 11klm test 7.3km start stop 3.7km at 120km/hr a fully charged hybrid (all start the test with 100% charge) will only consume fuel at 120km/h when the petrol engine is being used. I get 70-75klm (conservate driving) start/stop traffic electric only, but as low as 45-50km at 110km/h (if I force it into electric only mode). At 110km/h the petrol engine consumes around 6.5l/100, start stop around 8.5l/100. On a 150km round trip to work (mix start/stop & freeway) I get around 3.5-3.8l/100 using automatic hybrid mode. Every situation will vary, if I plant my foot to the floor everywhere in pure electric mode I'm sure I could run the battery out in less than 30km. This 150km round trip uses the full 18.8kw - I pay 25.6c/kwh so that's $4.77 in electricity. I will also have used between 5.25 and 5.7 litres of fuel at say $2.00 a litre ($10.50 to $11.40) total $ 15.27 to $16.17 for the trip. On 100% petrol this would be around 11.5l petrol or $23.00. For a trip around 75km the cost is $4.77 v $11.50 in petrol. I could possibly do better by using the charge "hold" driving mode (forces into petrol only mode) and only using the battery under 50km/h and also using the "b" (high regen mode) more often but it's too fiddly. The sensation of super-quiet driving and the performance of the combined motors is the selling point - not so much the fuel savings.

@@TB-up4xi Thanks. I would only do 50 to 60 klms to and from work. However weekends I would do 400 or 500 klms on different visists to parents and family alternating. I guess realistically avg 2 x family trips a month over a year which isnt too bad using petrol engine weekends only. It is what it is, for a trip around 75km the cost is $4.77 v $11.50 in petrol. 75klms is a good comparison BUT for all that goes on, is it worth it to save $6.73 a trip? Rhetorical, of course it is $6.73 a day x 5 a week is a significant saving, and with all that power under foot.
