Volvo has unveiled the all-new XC70 plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), built on the company’s new Scalable Modular Architecture (SMA) platform.
The crossover will be offered in two trims, with prices starting at 299,900 yuan ($41,900) for the two-wheel drive long-range variant and 329,900 yuan ($46,100) for the four-wheel drive ultra-long-range model.

Volvo retains its signature “Thor’s Hammer” LED daytime running lights at the front, while the rear features the brand’s Viking Axe taillights with the “Volvo Asia Pacific” logo positioned under the right taillight.
Powering the XC70 is a plug-in hybrid system combining a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine with three electric motors (P1, P2, and P4), connected via a 3DHT transmission. The engine delivers 120 kW (161 hp) and 255 Nm of torque.
