If you're shopping for a luxurious plug-in hybrid SUV, the Volvo XC60 Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) and the Volvo XC90 Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV) should be at the top of your list. These posh luxury crossovers have the attractive Scandinavian styling you love while also earning better fuel economy than gas-only models. The Lexus NX Plug-In Hybrid and Lexus RX Plug-In Hybrid are also efficient options, but they don't offer the overall excellence of their Volvo counterparts. Giles Volvo Cars El Paso has created the following comparisons to assist with your decision.
