Volvo ReCharge Concept

SUPER COOL!!!

Where I can buy this car??

If I cound buy this car today I would have bought it instead of my S40. We need more of these cars, not just Toyota and Honda!

Very interesting - but why wait till 2015??? We can deliver PHEV conversion sets for the Prius today, driving 55km on the battery and on average 50km per litre!

they still need to work on it. Since the car has the motors in the wheels it has full time all wheel drive. If the wheel at different speeds when driving the car could lose control. That is on problem. Also some parts need to be toughened up for regular street use.

True. This car does not have the fail-safe feature of drive-wheel interlock of transmission-differential-driveshaft vehicles (whether petrol, other electric or hybrid) Essentially, it has an independent drivetrain package at each wheel-each wheel could spin at vastly different rotational speeds. Volvo probably has a fail-safe mechanism/system to negate this. I imagine that it would have to be an independent montoring system, much like ESP, that can provide feedback to the central control unit.

Lets all hope that this is not another Evo1. Great car recalled for no reason.

I want this baby NOW!
