We heard already about in the corridors, but it is now official: Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine emits just 49 grams of CO2 per kilometre.

Is that even nice, because that means you’re not 14, but only 7% of list price having to pay on your Swedish powerhouse. How is that possible? That know only Volvo, but the Swedes do know that they are still for the start of the production, some adjustments have been made. So they brought the CO2 emission down from 64g/km and 49g/km.

Volvo describes the XC90 T8 Twin Engine itself as the most powerful and cleanest SUV in the world, and they may well be right. The 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine and the electric motor are together namely good for 407 hp and 640 Nm of torque. What you can? In 5.6 seconds from 0 to 100 sprinting for example. Or with 2.1 litres of petrol in the tank, drive 100 kilometers. Volvo promises that you 43 km of pure electric driving.
