Volvo C30 Hybrid

Volvo shows at the IAA Motorshow in Frankfurt the brand new C30 hybrid.
This Volvo C30 hybrid can drive on bio fuel but it’s main source is electricity. You can plug it in the wall and fully loaded the car can drive 60 miles. Loading the electricty will take 3 hours.
The Bio fuel will only be called upon when it is needed.

The C30 hybrid is developed in the US. The main idea is developing a car for people that drive less then 60 miles a day. In the US that will account for over 80%.
Having the electric charge you will almost never see the gaspomp again.

The fuelcosts of a C30 hybrid will be 80% less then having a “normal” car and the CO2emmission will be 60% less then the most efficiant cars available on the market right now.

The main difference between the Volvo Hybrid and hybrid cars like those of Honda, Toyota and Lexus is that Volvo C30 uses the electricty as it’s main source of power as the others use it as a short assistence for normal fuel.

And don’t think this electric car hasn’t got any power…. It’s topspeed running on electricty is a 100 miles an hour and goes from 0 to 60 in 9 seconds.
