I haven't been around much lately, but a while back I posted about looking for a new car for my wife. She has had a Volvo XC70 for 20 years.
She finally decided she wanted a new car, Hybrid. We went today and drove an Explorer. It was very nice, but it was more SUV/Truck than she wanted, and no plug in option.... and we went there because I wanted her to see it as a reference point.
Then, we went to Volvo. The difference is night and day. Plug in Hybrid, drives like a car, and the electronics eat Sync 3's lunch.
ETA: It's an XC60 Recharge, which is the plug in hybrid.
Not for everyone, and the price is more. Happy wife, happy life.
