Under the hood, the XC90 Recharge features a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbocharged hybrid engine producing 455 horsepower and mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission with start/stop technology. This powertrain allows the XC90 Recharge to travel up to 27 miles on electric power from its 18.8 kilowatt-hour battery before the turbocharged gasoline engine seamlessly takes over.
Together, the two power sources achieve 58 miles per gallon in fuel economy. The XC90 Recharge can accelerate from zero to 60 miles per hour in just 5.3 seconds thanks to the instant torque from the electric motor, providing quick response when needed.
With available all-wheel drive, the XC90 Recharge performs well in inclement weather and slippery conditions, providing extra capability when driving on snowy El Dorado, KS roads. The sophisticated AWD system continuously monitors wheel slippage and redirects engine torque to the wheels with the most traction.
