Manufacturer data · WLTP-estimated consumption · Caralogy-simulated performance

Among the 5 D-SUV plug-in hybrid, the XC60 T8 AWD Recharge combines two vehicles in one: an electric sedan for urban use (mid-table), a petrol tourer for long distances. Caralogy puts the XC60 T8 AWD Recharge through its paces: motorway simulation, consumption simulation and performance simulation.

Caralogy Analysis

Tailored to this vehicle?

Caralogy Verdict
Suitable for

Home-to-office commute up to 60 km in pure electric. Overnight charging is sufficient. 1st of 5 in 0–100 km/h (4.9 s).

Less suitable for

Regular long motorway trips. Once the 64 km EV range is used up, the car runs on pure combustion at 10.4 L/100, versus 8,6 L/100 km (HEV segment median, N=9). Beyond ~286 km without intermediate charging, an equivalent segment HEV becomes more cost-efficient.

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Electric WLTP range, the Lexus NX 450h+ AWD (1st with 76 km) takes the lead. If the priority is Combined range, the Jaguar F-PACE P400e (1st with 741 km) takes the lead.

In the city: 64 km pure electric (mid-table)

With a full battery, the XC60 T8 AWD Recharge drives in pure electric mode for the first 64 km WLTP - placing it 3rd of 5 in Electric WLTP range, behind the Lexus NX 450h+ AWD (76 km). In urban and peri-urban use, the XC60 T8 AWD Recharge behaves like a pure electric sedan in its segment.

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
