Driving a Volvo Hybrid is A Cost-Saving and Fun Alternative
As gas prices continue to rise across California, drivers from Vista to Oceanside are looking for creative ways to save money at the pump. Perhaps the best way to be economical on the streets of Encinitas is by choosing a hybrid or plug-in hybrid from Volvo Cars Carlsbad. Volvo offers four hybrid or plug-in models for you to love; The S60 and S90 sedans and XC60 and XC90 crossovers. All fall under the T8 powertrain option. Each is perfect for your daily commute from Del Mar.
Hybrid vehicles have evolved over the years, from slow and cumbersome to energetic and athletic. The XC90 T8 trim, for example generates 400 horsepower and 472 pound-feet of torque for quick acceleration and endurance.
It may seem like a costly investment at first glance. Still, the savings you experience behind the wheel of an electric vehicle or hybrid vehicle far outweigh what you would be spending with a traditional gas-powered car or crossover. The savings on fuel, alone, are enough to at least consider an alternative to your current vehicle. But that merely scratches the surface of their potential.
