Specification

So let’s, go ahead and get you with some specs this. As far as the actual 2021 Volvo XC90 engine is going to be concerned, it’s, going to be the 2-liter turbo and super charged four-cylinder engine from the t6. From there we add two electric motors we have an 11.6 kilowatt hour battery pack, which is larger than back in 2019.

They upgraded it and all together. 400, horsepower is what that’s, going to be good for when they’re working in cahoots, you can put it in a sport mode and they’ll all work together to give you that maximum power yeah – and it Is worth noting that the range for just full electric is around 20 miles? So if you have a short commute, you could be fully electric in your 2021 Volvo XC90 going to work each day, which is definitely a cool benefit.

Now, of course not all of you guys are going to want a full electric or not a full electric, but a plug-in hybrid model uh. So there are different options for you, so the 2021 Volvo XC90 comes standard with the t5 that’s, going to be a 2-liter turbo. I4 250 horsepower 258 pound-feet of torque the vast majority of 2021 Volvo XC90. They’re, going to sell the t6, which adds a supercharger to that engine, to get you 310 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque and then, as far as zero to 60, then performance difference between those t5 is seven and a half seconds.

T6 is 6.1 and then this t8 is 5.3, and once we get up here, we will go ahead and demonstrate what happens when they all work together. When you’re ready to have some fun and you’ve, you know deplete the battery a little bit. That very fast, very quick yeah. That was about 65 miles an hour that that acceleration there and you know one thing that we noticed is even when you know the of course the gas engine kicked in.

You could hear the battery still helping it out. So it’s, not just like a regular t6 when the engine kicks in. It also has that battery to boost the power up. This thing is really fast guys yeah, that was uphill to 60 miles an hour and no trouble at all.
