Whether you want to join the cause for a cleaner environment, or you just want a more fuel-efficient vehicle to drive in Myrtle Beach, a Volvo plug-in hybrid or a mild hybrid makes sense. Both powertrains use less fuel and release less emissions, but there are important differences between the two. Beach Volvo has both available for purchase or lease in our new inventory. Read on to see which type of Volvo vehicle suits you best.
Mild Hybrid Powertrains
Volvo's mild hybrid powertrains are equipped with a gas engine and a 48-volt battery that gives the motor a power boost. Conway, SC drivers will like that the mild hybrid system reduces fuel consumption and lowers tailpipe emissions. Since the engine restarts instantly, you can also enjoy smoother take-offs from a standstill.
Plug-In Hybrid Systems
Plug-in hybrid systems work differently. Unlike a mild hybrid, Volvo's plug-in hybrid vehicles can run a short distance on electric power only because of their larger batteries and electric motors. People in Pawleys Island can recharge a plug-in hybrid by just plugging it into a home charging station or using a public charging station.
