- 2018 Panamera 4 E-Hybrid Sport Turismo
I think that the XC40 BEV will sell well -- way better than the T8 Volvos, which are crappy engineering (their battery packs are too small, they get horrendous all-electric range, and they scrimped on the drive train to have a much-weaker all-electric rear axle vs. all-ICE-powered front axle for a big variation on power, front-to-back). In fact, when I bought my 4 E-Hybrid (which has both electric power and ICE power going to all 4 wheels), Volvo PHEVs were the primate competition for me vs. the Porsche PHEVs.If the Recharge price starts above $55k, it will be as rare on the road as the XC-90 T8 currently is. And they will be on huge discounts in about a year.
There's a reason we got our XC-90 T8 at more than $13k below MSRP (plus another $11k in fed/state tax credits).
By the way, how do you like your S E-Hybrid?
