This gives it 150 ponies more than what the T5 gets, and 84 horsepower more than what the T6 has. All three available models come with the same 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine under their hoods, but unlike the turbocharged-only T5 and T6 models which sport an additional supercharger, the T8 benefits from an 87-hp electric motor on top of everything. The range-topping XC60 eAWD plug-in hybrid model is especially intriguing thanks to its extra power and fuel savings which are considerable. As it’s always been the case with Volvo, the XC60’s safety features are arguably its highlight considering they include a semi-autonomous driving mode, adaptive cruise control, and a pre-collision system among other tech goodies. The pragmatically luxurious crossover can be ordered with pretty much everything there is to it when it comes to the latest technology, including the advanced electronic safety and convenience gear.
The T8 eAWD plug-in hybrid sits at the top of the XC60 range but doesn’t really differ much from conventional models in terms of refinement. Whatever we end up with, we’re confident it will be one of the most compelling 2020 hybrid SUVs headed to market. For now, we do know that Buick’s take on the EV crossover idea (the upmarket one) will support 5G connectivity and Cadillac’s Super Cruise system, and that it’ll likely cost less than the Tesla Model X. Whichever happens to be the case, the two 2020 General Motors’ Bolt-derived crossovers should be coming rather soon and more info will be known even sooner (or not, knowing GM).
It’s safe to assume, however, that the first one will remain under the tri-shield badge, whereas the other one should show up wearing a golden bow-tie. So much so, in fact, that we don’t even know which badges they’ll don when they roll off the assembly lines. The actual production models are still shrouded in mystery, however. It sports Buick’s eMotion powertrain which generates around 550 horsepower, which is right in the Tesla Model X performance edition’s alley. Back to the Buick Enspire – the concept boasts a healthy range of 370 miles, 80 percent of which can be charged in just 40 minutes.
