2019 Volvo XC90 T8

Great car, but do the maths if you need the plug-in version. There is a big price difference, and you see its benefits mainly on local trips. Calculate the price difference (with a standard petrol) against the fuel savings.
As above, it will return around 25mpg if you don't charge it.

Had one for 2 years and 36000 miles. My wife drives it “vigorously” and it’s returned around 32mpg with it plugged in most days. EV range is around 21 miles but we have had the Polestar treatment done - Supercharged and Turbocharged with circa 420ps - so it was never going to be particularly economical.
The interior is a fantastic place to be. The tech is great and I think it’s a good looking thing. Personally I think the engine is a bit rough but it’s plenty quick enough...
Just about to buy another one to replace it.
