Fleet World Fleet Show: World’s first plug-in diesel hybrid available to test

Visitors will be able to get behind the wheel of the pioneering new Volvo V60 Plug-in Diesel Hybrid and see how its unique technology delivers three cars in one – a zero-tailpipe emission electric car, a hybrid car and a performance car, at the touch of a button.

This groundbreaking model reaches 0-62mph in 6.1seconds, has a top speed of 141mph, but produces CO2 emissions of just 48g/km with an official range of 155mpg, making it a hugely attractive proposition for business drivers. Also present will be the striking new Volvo V40 D2 R-Design, which is available from May 2013 with CO2 emissions of just 88g/km (83.1mpg).

In total, the Fleet World Fleet Show, which takes place on Wednesday 24th April, will feature a 200-model line-up from 21 manufacturers that will be available for driving on the Silverstone Grand Prix and Stowe circuits and on test drive routes in the area, providing an excellent opportunity to properly assess their capabilities for fleets.
