Many people in Myrtle Beach want to help make the Earth's environment more sustainable. One way you can do your part is by driving a mild hybrid vehicle from the new inventory at Beach Volvo. Our mild hybrid models have an integrated starter generator that reduces engine load for lowered fuel consumption and less tailpipe emissions. Mild hybrid engines are available in many 2022 Volvo models, including the S60, XC60, S90, and V90 Cross Country.
Peppier Acceleration and a Smoother Driving Experience
Volvo has replaced the T5 and T6 powertrains in many of its models with B5 and B6 mild hybrid systems. These motors are composed of a four-cylinder engine and a 48-volt hybrid starter generator that boosts the car's power while reducing gas consumption. It also enables quicker acceleration and easier passing in Conway, SC. Since the engine restarts instantly, it allows for a smoother, more refined driving experience.
Difference Between Mild Hybrid, Full Hybrid, and Plug-In Hybrid Vehicles
Volvo's mild hybrid vehicles recover brake energy to automatically charge their 48-volt battery when braking. Unlike a plug-in hybrid powertrain, a mild hybrid cannot be powered by the electric battery alone. It is only there to assist the engine and to reduce the amount of work it needs to do. Full hybrids usually have larger batteries. Pawleys Island drivers will appreciate that mild hybrid vehicles are generally more affordable than full hybrids or plug-in hybrids.
