Volvo Coupe Concept
Although still in the concept stage, the new Volvo Coupe is looking extremely promising. The design has been inspired by the classic P1800. Power comes from a petrol plug-in hybrid system, which combines a 305PS supercharged 2.0-litre petrol engine with a 95PS electric motor to produce 600Nm of torque and emit just 50g/km of CO2. The concept is also being prepared for completely autonomous driving, with autonomous steering to avoid accidents and make driving easier.
