GOTHENBURG, Sweden — Volvo Cars said it will begin selling its new V60 Plug-in Hybrid, a diesel-electric sport wagon, in 2012. The car, which will make its official debut in early March at the 2011 Geneva Auto Show, is not expected to be sold in North America.
Volvo describes the show car as "virtually production-ready." It said the V60 Plug-in Hybrid will emit less than 50 g/km of CO2, with equivalent fuel economy of 124 miles per gallon. It has a range of up to 30 miles on pure electricity.
The car is powered by a D5 2.4-liter five-cylinder turbodiesel, which is rated at 215 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque. Power is delivered to the front wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission.
The V60 Plug-in Hybrid also features a 70-hp electric motor and a 12 kWh battery pack, with power sent to the rear axle.
Edmunds.com says: This should be one of the first diesel-hybrids on the market in Europe. — Paul Lienert, Correspondent

whew.. this car just never stops. repair bills after repair bills. i have 75000 miles and had to replace alternator 4 times, not to mention fuel pump, brakes...And WOW WHAT TERRIBLE GAS MILEAGE! i do everything i can to keep the gas mileage down, yet i still average 15mpg. my best advice for you would be to buy a ford, and get your moneys worth, minus the repair bills.
Typical heavy domestic car ride not bad though. Roomy. Typical Chevy interior, rattles too much cheap plastic. Not solid but competent ride. Good engine (3.1 V6), good acceleration.
Great car. Paid 750 for it. It was very fast and passing with ease too. Suffered a bit on hills, but it's a six cylinder, what do you want? And it ran well on or off road. I had no trouble until I thought I could get 4000 out of an oil change instead of 3000 and it threw a rod. I had to replace the motor. No trouble since.
I had a lot of fun with my 1993 Chevrolet Lumina Euro. I put it through hell for the year and a half that I had it. It had already had 167,000+ on it when I got it and I drove it until the head gasket blew at 177,000+. It was definitely worth the 600 I paid for it. It was a great buy

Although its fuel efficiency is most impressive, it's hard to justify the 2013 Ford Fusion Energi's big price jump over the already very frugal Fusion Hybrid.
Able to combine excellent fuel efficiency with relatively strong performance and wrap it up in handsome styling to boot, the Ford Fusion Hybrid is certainly impressive. The 2013 Ford Fusion Energi is even more so, as it uses plug-in hybrid technology that allows it to run solely under electric power for about 19 miles before changing over to normal hybrid operation. This engineering attribute allows it to achieve an EPA combined rating of 88 MPGe (miles per gallon equivalent). For comparison, the Toyota Prius Plug-in rates 95 MPGe and the Chevrolet Volt earns 98 MPGe. Note, however, that the "e" estimate relates to when the Energi is running in full electric mode. After that, it gets about 38 mpg in combined city/highway driving.
That all sounds like a win-win to us until you consider the cost. This latest perk in powertrain technology doesn't come cheap, as the entry-level 2013 Ford Fusion Energi lists for around $8,000 more than the Fusion Hybrid when new.
Of course, the Fusion Energi shares most of the pluses and minuses of Ford's recently revamped midsize winner. Among the former are that snazzy styling, a roomy cabin, relatively spirited performance and polished driving dynamics. There are also plenty of available high-tech features such as adaptive cruise control, automated parking assist, blind-spot detection, the Sync voice command system and the latest generation of MyFord Touch.
In the final analysis, the 2013 Ford Fusion Energi is a remarkable car, yet we still find it hard to recommend over the highly regarded Fusion Hybrid it's based on given the sizable price difference. That said, early adopters who don't mind spending the extra green to be extra green will find the Energi compares favorably to its few rivals in this new segment. Although the 2013 Chevrolet Volt offers twice the electric-only range, it only seats four and those in back will find cramped quarters compared to the Ford. The 2013 Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid costs less and offers a comfortable and spacious cabin, but its shorter electric-only range (15 miles) and inferior interior quality may turn off those willing to pay for something with more style.
The 2013 Ford Fusion Energi is an extended-range (plug-in) hybrid that comes in two trim levels: SE Luxury and Titanium.
The SE Luxury comes loaded with 17-inch alloy wheels, foglights, automatic headlights, heated mirrors, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, leather upholstery, heated front seats, driver memory settings, keypad entry, cruise control, dual-zone air-conditioning, rear air ducts, power front seats (eight-way driver with lumbar and four-way passenger), a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, a trip computer and a 110-volt household-style power outlet. Electronic features include the Sync voice-activated audio and cell phone interface, the MyFord Touch electronics interface (with 8-inch central LCD touchscreen and two 4-inch configurable gauge cluster displays) and a six-speaker sound system with a CD player, satellite radio, an auxiliary audio jack and an iPod/USB interface.
Options on the SE Luxury include the Driver Assist package (automatic high beams, rain-sensing wipers, a blind-spot warning system, rear cross-traffic alert, lane departure warning and lane assist), rear parking sensors, a rearview camera, remote ignition and a sunroof. Also optional are a navigation system, an automated parallel-parking system (with front parking sensors) and adaptive cruise control with collision warning and brake support.
The Titanium adds the following to the SE Luxury's standard features: a rear spoiler, rear parking sensors, a rearview camera, front sport seats and an upgraded audio system with 12 speakers. Optional features mirror those of the SE Luxury, except of course where they are already standard.
The 2013 Ford Fusion Energi has a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor that's fed by a lithium-ion battery pack. Combined, they produce 188 horsepower that's sent to the front wheels through a specialized continuously variable transmission (CVT). The battery pack is considerably larger than the one in the standard Fusion Hybrid, which allows the Energi to be propelled for up to 19 miles purely on electric power.
According to the EPA, the Fusion Energi achieves a combined MPGe of 88 miles, but as stated earlier that's when it is only running via electric power. Once that electric range is used up, it operates like the standard Fusion Hybrid and earns an EPA combined estimate of 38 mpg city. Think of it this way. If you drove around 57 miles a day and recharged the Energi at night, you would only use about a gallon of gas a day.
The 2013 Ford Fusion Energi comes standard with antilock disc brakes, traction and stability control, front seat side airbags, front knee airbags and side curtain airbags. The Ford Sync system includes an emergency crash notification feature that automatically dials 911 when paired with a compatible cell phone. Also standard is Ford's MyKey, which can be used to set certain parameters for teen drivers.
Optional equipment includes blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, driver drowsiness detection, lane-departure warning, lane assist (it automatically helps the driver keep the car in its lane) and collision warning with brake support.
Although we have yet to drive the 2013 Ford Fusion Energi, the similar Fusion Hybrid has impressed us with its comfortable and controlled ride and agile handling. Indeed, in testing we found the Fusion Hybrid handled as well as many so-called sport sedans in both the slalom and skid pad exercises.
While electric-assist power steering systems typically lack feel, the Fusion's is remarkably communicative and one of the better versions of this new industry-wide trend. As with most hybrid cars, acclimating to the Energi's electricity-regenerative braking feature in everyday driving takes a little time, and inching either forward or backward into a parking stall takes a delicate touch on the brake pedal.
Extensive acoustic insulation throughout the Fusion line has made good on Ford's promise of a quiet cabin. Cruising at 70 mph, the Fusion is luxury-car quiet. It is only at full throttle, when the gas engine is working hardest, that the hybrid versions of the Fusion become louder than a non-hybrid Fusion.
Inside the Fusion Energi's cabin, high-quality materials show Ford's continuing dedication to improving the passenger environment. The dashboard and center stack are uncluttered and tastefully designed, although this look can also come across as a bit austere and uninviting, especially with the all-black interior.
With the highly adjustable power driver seat and tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, just about everybody should be able to find a comfortable driving position. The passenger seat is just as supportive, while the split-folding rear seats are well contoured and have plenty of legroom. You may assume that the Fusion's swoopy styling would cut down on rear headroom, yet it is comparable to its competition, with enough clearance for normal-size adults. Outward visibility to the front is relatively unhindered -- something that's becoming increasingly rare in today's vehicles -- thanks to the Fusion's slender front roof pillars.
The MyFord Touch system is an interface that consists of a main display and supporting gauge cluster displays along with touch controls, steering wheel buttons and the Sync voice control system. It's a smart idea in theory, and it does provide some nice customization possibilities. Unfortunately, there's a learning curve involved for the user, and even with Ford's recent updates we've found the system sometimes slow to respond and the icons difficult to locate and press while on the move.
Another downside to the Fusion Energi is its small trunk. Due to the larger battery pack, luggage capacity is just 8.2 cubic feet, or about half that of the regular Fusion.
I drive a Ford Fusion Energi as a commuter car. I drive 16 miles each way in stop and go traffic on surface streets and freeway. I live in a hilly area. Going to work I drive all electric with brake regen down hills. It is very quiet. I don't charge up at work (they don't have 110 volt outlet outside and extension cord isn't long enough). About half way home it switches over to hybrid mode. After a month of driving 865 miles the dashboard says my avg is 90.4 mpge (less if climate on) I charge it up nightly in my garage using a 110 volt charger. The Adaptive Cruise Control reduces commuter stress. The Sony stereo sounds good using Sirrus or streaming music via bluetooth phone using Spotify. I am enjoying my new tech car. My commute costs are much less. Update: It corners really well. Its fun to drive. It looks good. I don't have an issue with the trunk size. Its never been an issue for me. I don't carry skies or haul stuff. I have another car for that. After 25000 miles it is still going really well. No mechanical issues or failures. A couple of minor recalls that didn't effect me. I drove the car 2000 miles from Seattle, WA to L.A. in Southern California and back. No issues. Solid car. The auto parallel parking feature is awesome. Getting 70 mgpe lifetime average. Its a great commuter car. Most of my trips are in the suburbs 10 miles each way so most trips use no gasoline. The transition from electric only to gasoline hybrid is smooth and seamless. When I need acceleration I punch it and the 200 horsepower comes on quickly with lots of torque. I still charge it up every night in my garage (suburb) on 110 volt. I never bought the 220 volt because I didn't need it. I sometimes charge at public charging stations but not very often. I never have range anxiety because it has a 14 gallon gas tank which I use very little of. I have changed the oil twice in 25000 miles. It has an intelligent oil monitor. The car has 25000 miles but the gasoline engine has only 5000 miles so maintenance costs are really low. I could never go back to non-plug-in-hybrid car.

It's rare to come across a plugin hybrid vehicle that has the three main components to making a great car; looks, fuel efficiency and fun to drive. This car has it all. I've owned the car for just over a month now, have driven 900 miles and have yet to put in my first tank of gas since the dealership filled it for me at sale. How can you argue with that? I plug it in every night using a standard household outlet and that charge alone gets me to work in the morning and almost all the way home at night. The touch screen display is vibrant and easy to use. The dashboard can be configured to several different looks depending on what information you want to display.
Within in a 3 month period, car had to be towed back to the dealership because the battery (12v) went completely dead. First time it was fixed by the dealership, we were told it was a software issue. Second time it is still at the dealership. Tried jump starting the 12 v battery and that didn't work. With no electricity, you can't access the rear trunk and the electronic transmission is locked. The doors are locked and you can't get in without using the emergency key which is another challenge. Only a few months left on the lease and it only has 14k miles. One more time with this battery issue and I am going to invoke the Lemon Law in California. Sorry for the next person that buys this one.....
My car lost power on the freeway when I was driving in the car pool lane with no shoulder. I have plenty of gas but it did not switch over. The dealer updated the modules. There seems to be a problem with the modules on this car as I have had it for two years and they have had to be updated numerous times for everything from the windows not working properly, not switching over to gas power and time of use charging option. I am no longer under warranty due to the mileage and am being charged to update modules that seem to "break" randomly. This car could end up costing me a small fortune just in updates. Seems like a money pit for me and a way to keep funds coming into the dealer.

Norwich City boss Daniel Farke has stuck with the same starting XI which started last weekend’s narrow 1-0 defeat at Leeds, for this evening’s Championship clash with Brentford.
Nelson Oliveira again leads the attack, ahead of an attacking midfield three of Marley Watkins, James Maddison and Alex Pritchard.
The changes come on the bench, with the injured Cameon Jerome and Wes Hoolahan replaced by young-left-back Jamal Lewis – his first involvement in first team football – and Yanic Wildschut, who can play up front.
The Canaries have lost six of their last nine matches and are looking to bounce back from that defeat at Leeds last weekend.
Brentford have made five changes, with former Canaries winger Sergi Canos dropping to the bench, alongside Neal Maupay and Josh McEachran, , with Josh Clarke and captain Jon Egan missing out completely.
They are replaced by Chris Mepham, Lasse Vibe, Nico Yennaris, Kamohelo Mokotjo and Florian Jozefzoon.
The Bees are hoping to improve on a 0-0 home draw with Barnsley in their last game and have won just one of their last six matches.
Wes Hoolahan and Cameron Jerome miss out for the Bees’ visit. Head coach Daniel Farke confirmed yesterday Hoolahan has been struggling with a hip problem, which is also causing him pain in his groin. Jerome has seen a back specialist over a long standing issue with his disc. Farke expects both to play some part over the festive period. James Husband had the final injection of a course of treatment on his groin earlier this week and will not be risked for this game. Jamal Lewis is in Farke’s thoughts, after missing a scheduled development outing against Brighton earmarked as part of his fitness recovery from a knee injury. Louis Thompson, Remi Matthews and Matt Jarvis remain longer term injury absentees. Thompson is expected to be out until late March.
Josh Clarke is ruled out with a ankle injury. Henrik Dalsgaard may get the nod at right back but the defender has only returned after injury. Alan Judge is again ruled out with a broken leg.
Guided the Bees to a top 10 Championship finish last season. Previously took Walsall to the Football League Trophy final in 2015 during a four-year coaching stint at the Saddlers.
Brief stint at Carrow Road after signing from Liverpool for a reported £2.5m in July 2016. Made only one Championship start for the Canaries before moving on to Brentford in January 2017. Talented wide player who started in Barcelona’s academy and represented Spain at youth level.
Sent three players off in his last two Championship appointments. Shown five red and 88 yellow cards in 21 games this season.
SLIMMING DOWN: Pearson has sold its Mergermarket business to London private equity group, BC Partners, for £382 million (US $622.7 million) in cash. Founded in 1999, Mergermarket has been a source of financial news and analysis and operates in 65 countries under numerous brands. It was acquired by Pearson in 2006 for £101 million.
Pearson CEO John Fallon said in a prepared statement: "The company has flourished under Pearson's ownership but it is not part of Pearson's strategy in global education. The transaction provides us with additional financial capacity to accelerate our push into digital learning, educational services and emerging markets." According to the Financial Times, he also told staff that "it was in truth impossible to see how Mergermarket could contribute to Pearson's ambitions in global education."
These words seem consistent with plans shared by Fallon in an interview with EdSurge, during which he discussed moves to restructure the company to focus on delivering quality education services. On November 15, Pearson unveiled an "efficacy framework" to evaluate whether its products are meeting desired learning outcomes.
