Mild Hybrid question XC60

m2srt · Mar 28th, 2019, 09:55

My question is rather simple, are the current engines in the XC60 being replaced by mild hybrids or will they be offered alongside the existing engine lineup? If they are replacing them then it's fair to assume that there will be a £2k price hike across the rage, barring the T8 obviously.

Except that is a Global site and does not necessarily reflect what will happen in the UK market.

Certainly for the MY20 XC90 there is only one diesel and that is the B5.

Waiting for Clive Brook Huddersfield to phone me back regarding this. SWMBO will Hopefully be ordering a D4 XC60 imminently.

Replaced as you can see in several Volvo sites for example Volvo France

So it looks like if you want diesel, AWD and Automatic, B4 or B5 are your only options.

Update,

Spoke with the sales manager at Clive Brook, He confirmed the following,

MY20 the D4 Awd is no longer available, it's replaced by the B4 AWD.

The FWD D4 is now apparently available with the 8 speed auto though. We will try and spec change a MY19.5 if there is one that is't build locked yet.

Yes. And in 1 or 2 years not even a diesel you will be able to buy at Volvo.

Even though modern diesel's are as clean as they have ever been and still offer decent real world economy.

Have Volvo said that it will only produce fully electric? I think they will still be starting to ship more and more mild hybrid models and will start to ship full electic but I can see it being 5+ years before all models are fully electric. 1 version of each model being electric in the next 1/2 years I can see.
