Plug-in Hybrid Performance That Adapts to You

At the heart of the XC60 is a T8 AWD plug-in hybrid powertrain that combines electric and gasoline power for flexible performance. It delivers up to 455 hp and 523 lb-ft of torque, giving the SUV strong acceleration while still maintaining efficiency for everyday driving.

The XC60 can travel up to 58 km on electric power alone, making short daily commutes in Richmond or downtown Vancouver possible with zero tailpipe emissions.
