This week, we discuss the local launch of the new Plug-In Hybrid Volvo XC40 Recharge, the unveiling of their all-electric crossover coupe, the Volvo C40, and finally, a report that showed how much more emissions and fuel that Plug-in hybrid cars emit and consume. In Part 2, we talk about the launch of the controversially-designed 2021 BMW 4-series, before moving on to our Used Car Review of the original 'Sports Activity Coupe': the 2008 BMW X6 - which was also a hugely controversial design from BMW,12 years ago.
