General information about the XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid
The XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid is
driven like any other vehicle but it has certain
functionality that differs from a vehicle powered
exclusively by a gasoline engine. The electric
motor powers the vehicle primarily at low
speeds; the gasoline engine is used at higher
speeds or during more active driving.

Drive modes (change in the center display or
by using the drive mode control in the tunnel
console)
Instrument panel showing unique hybrid-related information
WARNING
Please be aware that there is no sound from
the engine when the vehicle is being powered
by the electric motor and it may be difficult to
detect by children, pedestrians, cyclists and
animals. This is especially true at low speeds.
High-voltage electrical current
WARNING
A number of electrical components in the
XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid use
high-voltage current and can be extremely
dangerous if handled incorrectly. These components and any orange wiring in the vehicle
may only be handled by trained and qualified
Volvo service technicians.
Hybrid-unique functions
Drive modes
Different drive modes can be selected while driving, e.g., electric power only or a combination of
electric and gasoline power. The vehicle calculates the optimal combination of drivability, driving
experience, environmental impact and fuel economy for the selected drive mode. See also the
article "Drive modes" for additional information.
Instrument panel
In certain driving situations, hybrid-unique information may be displayed in the instrument panel,
such as: a hybrid battery gauge (current charge
level), the current drive mode, a symbol that illuminates when the gasoline engine is being used,
a Hybrid Guide and the level of energy regeneration.
Preconditioning
In order to function optimally, the hybrid battery
(and its related electrical systems) and the gasoline engine (and its drive systems) should be at
the correct operating temperature. The hybrid
battery's capacity is reduced considerably if it is
too cold or hot. Preconditioning prepares the
vehicle's drive systems and passenger compartment before the vehicle is driven to help reduce
wear and energy consumption.
Charging the hybrid battery
CAUTION
Never connect the charging cable if there is a
risk of thunderstorms/lightning.
The XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid uses a
lithium-ion battery that can be charged in several
ways:
•
A charging cable can be connected from the
vehicle to a 110-volt AC socket. Charging
time depends on the strength of the current.
•
When the brakes are applied lightly, the electric motor is used for engine braking, during
which the vehicle's kinetic energy is converted into electric current that is used to help
recharge the hybrid battery.
•
The hybrid battery is also recharged to a certain extent when the gasoline engine is in
operation.

Concern for the environment means an everyday
involvement in reducing our environmental
impact.
Volvo's environmental activities are based on a
holistic view, which means we consider the overall environmental impact of a product throughout
its complete life cycle. In this context, design, production, product use, and recycling are all important considerations. In production, Volvo has
partly or completely phased out several chemicals
including CFCs, lead chromates, asbestos, and
cadmium; and reduced the number of chemicals
used in our plants 50% since 1991.
Volvo was the first in the world to introduce into
production a three-way catalytic converter with a
Lambda sond, now called the heated oxygen sensor, in 1976. The current version of this highly
efficient system reduces emissions of harmful
substances (CO, HC, NOx) from the exhaust pipe
by approximately 95 – 99% and the search to
eliminate the remaining emissions continues.
Volvo is the only automobile manufacturer to
offer CFC-free retrofit kits for the air conditioning
system of all models as far back as the 1975
model 240. Advanced electronic engine controls
and cleaner fuels are bringing us closer to our
goal. In addition to continuous environmental
refinement of conventional gasoline-powered
internal combustion engines, Volvo is actively
looking at advanced technology alternative-fuel
vehicles.
When you drive a Volvo, you become our partner
in the work to lessen the car's impact on the
environment. To reduce your vehicle's environmental impact, you can:
•
Maintain proper air pressure in your tires.
Tests have shown decreased fuel economy
with improperly inflated tires.
•
Follow the recommended maintenance
schedule in your Warranty and Service
Records Information booklet.
•
Drive at a constant speed whenever possible.
•
See a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician as soon as possible for inspection
if the check engine (malfunction indicator)
light illuminates, or stays on after the vehicle
has started.
•
Properly dispose of any vehicle-related waste
such as used motor oil, used batteries, brake
pads, etc.
•
When cleaning your vehicle, please use genuine Volvo car care products. All Volvo car
care products are formulated to be environmentally friendly.

•
If possible, precondition the vehicle with the
charging cable before driving.
•
If preconditioning is not possible in cold
weather, use the seat and steering wheel
heating primarily. Avoid heating the entire
passenger compartment, which reduces the
hybrid battery's charge level.
•
Choose the
Pure drive mode to help mini-
mize electric power consumption.
•
In hilly terrain, put the gear selector in mode
B to utilize the electric motor's braking function when the accelerator pedal is released.
This helps charge the hybrid battery.

IntelliSafe—driver support
IntelliSafe is Volvo's philosophy regarding vehicle safety. It encompasses a number of systems,
both standard and optional, that are designed to
help make driving and traveling in a Volvo safer.

Lane Keeping Aid* alerts the drive if the vehicle
inadvertently crosses a lane's/road's side marker
line.
Protection
The vehicle is equipped with e.g., seat belt pretensioners that pull the seat belts taut in critical
situations when there is a collision risk and
numerous airbags designed to help provide cushioning if certain types of collisions should occur.

that is currently playing. It is controlled using both
steering wheel keypads.
Center display
Many of the vehicle's main functions are controlled from the center display, a touchscreen that
reacts to taps or other gestures. The number of
physical buttons is thereby minimized. The screen
can be operated with or without gloves.
The center display is used to control e.g., the climate and infotainment systems and to adjust the
power seats*. The information shown here can be
dealt with by the driver or the front seat passenger.
Voice control system
The voice control system enables the driver to operate certain vehicle functions without
removing his/her hands from
the steering wheel and it
understands natural speech.
Use voice commands to e.g.,
play a track on the infotainment system, make a
phone call, raise the passenger compartment
temperature or to read a text message.
For additional information about all of the functions/system, see the respective articles in the
on-board owner's manual or the printed supplement.
