Very good point, I think. The mild hybrid would make the powerPulse quite useless, assuming it is properly implemented and charged at the moment you need it (never at cold start, I guess).

So far so good, Volvo just need to sort out the DPF, gearbox judder and pollen filter.

Knowlage is power?? what and where do we need to look for the pipe?
