Volvo comes with petrol variant V60 Plug-in Hybrid
Reported that the Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet.
Thus the car would still be interesting for markets where diesel is not popular, for example in Asia. According to Volvo product manager Lex Kerssemakers it is still too early to say when the petrol variant is ready, since the decision was taken only recently.
It is not clear whether Volvo again choose a heavy gasoline, or petrol variant is modest motorized. You may find the hybrid technology in both petrol and diesel form at a later stage of its way to other models.
Because Volvo hybrid strategy uses a different instance than the Opel Ampera, the Swedes make a profit on every copy sold. Kerssemakers adds that despite the relatively high retail sales are on track. When introducing said the company's goal is to sell 7,000 copies per year.
