Keller Rohrback L.L.P. Investigates Volvo Hybrid Battery Life

SEATTLE–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Attorney Advertising. Keller Rohrback L.L.P. is investigating recent
claims that Volvo misled consumers about the electric-only economy of
XC90 T8 Plug-in Hybrid. As a result, consumers may have paid a premium
for an electric motor that does not perform as promised.

The Volvo XC90 T8 is a seven-passenger sport utility vehicle with both a
gasoline engine and an electric motor, and both a gasoline tank and an
electric battery. This allows three modes of driving: electric, hybrid,
and gas. Volvo advertises that the XC90 T8 can drive more than 40km
[24.85 miles] using only electricity, which would allow many drivers to
commute daily using only the charge stored in the electric battery and
without using any gas. However, recent testing has revealed that the
vehicle only achieves 40-58% of the advertised electric-only range.

“Buyers of Volvo’s hybrid cars wanted to make earth-conscious choices
and believed the manufacturer’s representations about the range they
would get from these car’s electric batteries,” said attorney Amy
Williams-Derry. “The difference between the represented 25 miles and the
cars’ actual battery life is astonishing and a real breach of the
consumer’s trust.”
