Climate change is a topic that world leaders, business owners and citizens are all too familiar with. There is no longer any doubt that human activity is changing the climate on our planet and this change is happening faster than most experts originally predicted. According to a January 2021 climate report published by the National Centres for Environmental Information in America, the land and ocean surface temperature was 0.80 Degrees Celsius above the 20th-century average. It was the seventh warmest January in the 142-year global records. Everyone needs to start playing their parts in getting this crisis under control. Car manufactures are heeding the call and are turning to hybrid vehicles to bring down carbon emissions. There are 3 types of hybrid vehicles namely mild hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and fully electric vehicles.

Volvo is one of the first luxury car manufacturers to release a plug-in hybrid as a flagship vehicle. The XC90 T8 has impressive safety technology but not much is understood about how its engine works. A plug-in hybrid (PHEV) uses two engines. The T8 is powered by a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo- and supercharged petrol engine providing 235kW of power and an electric motor which produces 65 kW of power.

It’s quite an impressive combination of technology and one that not only reduces carbon emissions but also makes the vehicle perform better. The XC90’s braking also recharges the battery using kinetic energy. This process is called regenerative braking.

Volvo shows no sign of stopping the innovation from moving forward. Earlier this year CEO of Volvo Cars Håkan Samuelsson was quoted saying: “To remain successful, we need profitable growth. So instead of investing in a shrinking business, we choose to invest in the future – electric and online. We are fully focused on becoming a leader in the fast-growing premium electric segment.”

Be sure to keep an eye on CMH Volvo Cars Westrand’s social media for offers on the Volvo XC90 T8 and news on the upcoming electric vehicles.

Volvo has long been in the game of changing to meet consumers demands. Climate change is a real existential crisis for consumers and manufacturers of vehicles. Data from the UN shows carbon emissions are still on the rise and are highly unlikely to change within the next decade. As a result, the responsibility for individuals to start making lifestyle changes is more important than ever.

Volvo recognises the rising demand for more environmentally friendly products and is meeting the demand by announcing they will only be selling fully electric vehicles (EV’s) by the end of the decade. What is even more exciting is that you will only be able to purchase these vehicles online.

Chief Technology Officer Henrik Green was quoted “There is no long-term future for cars with an internal combustion engine. The transition to selling only electric cars will allow Volvo to meet the expectations of our customers and be a part of the solution when it comes to fighting climate change.”

In the last few weeks, Volvo has announced the first of the fully electric which is the C40. The C40 is very similar to the XC40 but its external cosmetics are completely different. The fully electric XC40 will be making its way to the South African market sometime in 2021. Orders for the XC40 have started in April meaning there will be a huge drive by Volvo South Africa to introduce this vehicle to our market and make it a viable option for South African consumers who are climate conscious. Greg Maruszewski, Managing Director at Volvo Car South Africa has been quoted saying; “The XC40 Recharge Pure Electric is capable of travelling more than 400 km on a single charge. “It can be charged to 80% of its battery capacity in as little as 40 minutes using a fast charger.”

CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston will communicate once the first of the electric vehicles hit our showroom floor. Be sure to keep an eye on our social media pages for more information.
