I'm guessing they are hiding a vanity somewhere in the car.

the styling (and wheels) seem a bit agressive. i dont like volvo concepts tho. most are along the lines of SSc (super safe car, etc).and the cool ones they usually dont buildcept that S60R. which is teh sex-Enzo

The only Volvo that I ever found intersting was the old P1800. Sexy car. this concept does have a nice...uh...rear, but the front end looks too...padded. Actually 215 hp out of a hybrid is pretty impressive.

Looks pretty slow, and useless, and slow. I wonder if it'll leave you for a driver with more money or better looks. And i wonder if it'll nag you about stupid things.

Now when they say 215 horsepower from this hybrid is that anything like the new Eclipse concept? The engine itself powers the front wheels with 270hp while electric motors power the rear wheels with 200hp. So therefore Mitsubishi claims 470 total horsepower. Sounds like a decent idea but didn't they already do that on the Civic hybrids also? Damn I'm confuse now, maybe someone else can make more sense of this.

yeah if you had the same horespower coming out of two sets of wheels wouldnt that be the same horespower?

like 200 in the front and 200 in the back = 200?

if one isnt pushing more hp than the other your jsut gonna have what I liek to reffer to as a intelligent AWD system with active hp dispersion. Making the front and rear bot power the car doesnt make it more powerful.

OR AM I WRONG? I would assume im right but ehh when am I not a genius? :)

Yeah you must be right, xx. Otherwise a car with a 200hp engine and AWD would have the same power as a car with a 100hp engine and 2wd.
