All-wheel drive
All-wheel drive (AWD
6
) means that the car is
driving all four wheels at the same time,
which improves traction.
The electric motor that drives the rear wheels
enables electric all-wheel drive functionality.
All-wheel drive characteristics vary depending
on the selected drive mode.

Drive systems
Volvo's Twin Engine combines an internal
combustion engine that drives the front
wheels with an electric motor that drives the
rear wheels.
Two drive systems
Depending on the driver-selected drive mode
and available electric energy, the two drive
systems can be used either individually or in
parallel.
The electric motor is supplied its energy from
a hybrid battery fitted in the tunnel console.
The hybrid battery can be charged in a wall
socket, or in a special charging station. The
internal combustion engine can also charge
the hybrid battery with a special high-voltage
generator.
Both the internal combustion engine and elec-
tric motor can generate motive force directly
to the wheels. An advanced control system
combines the properties of both drive systems
in order to provide optimum driving economy.
