VOLVO RECHARGE CONCEPT CAR

Volvo Cars has been performing driving tests with its plug-in hybrid concept car, the Volvo C30 ReCharge Concept, which was first presented in autumn 2007. Used in the most effective way, this concept car cuts emissions of CO2 by about 65% compared with other hybrid cars available on the market today. Volvo Car Corporation is also launching a joint broad-based research venture, together with electricity provider Vattenfall, Saab Automobile, ETC AB and the Swedish state, to develop technology in the area of plug-in hybrid cars, for which Sweden will serve as a field-test arena. A fleet of 10 plug-in hybrids will be produced which can be recharged directly from the main wall socket. Over a five-year period, Volvo Cars will invest over 11 billion SEK (approx. $1.8 billion) in development aimed at reducing fuel consumption and emissions.

I say like Elvis: a little less conversation, a little more action. It's one thing to make concept cars and making cars for consumers. Get it out faaast!

thats a c30 , i got a red one, but mines a combustion engine. However that little panel that he flipped up and plugged the car in , my car has that same panel but there is nothing there....Perhaps when they made the body of the c30 volvo was planning on producing an electric version but never did with that body style
