      Volvo XC90, the company’s flagship SUV is now also available in the T8 Inscription variant and is priced at Rs 96.65 lakhs (ex-showroom, India). Interestingly, this is also the only seven-seat SUV to offer a hybrid powertrain and it is positioned below the four-seat T8 Hybrid Excellence.

      Mechanically, the new model gets a 2.0-litre, direct injection four-cylinder petrol engine coupled with an electric motor. The electric motor produces around 81bhp of power and 240Nm of torque, combined it will generate around 398bhp of power and 640Nm of torque. The powerful engine comes mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. The rear wheels are powered by the electric motor while the front is powered by the petrol engine. Reports claim that the vehicle can cover a distance of up to 32kms on a full charge. The company claims that the XC90 T8 Inscription can sprint from 0-100kmph in just about six seconds.
