Plug-in hybrid vehicles are the bridge between traditional gasoline vehicles and strictly battery-powered electrics. If relying on battery power alone for an extended trip makes you anxious, perhaps a powertrain with batteries and gasoline is the answer.

At Isringhausen Imports, we offer plug-in hybrid vehicles to satisfy most tastes. Here is an overview.

BMW 330e

The 2023 BMW 3-series lineup gets a fresh update, including the plug-in 330e model. This sleek sports sedan now boasts a revamped exterior and interior. Sitting just above the 330i in the series, the 330e packs a punch with its gasoline-electric powertrain, pumping out 288 horsepower – a notable 33 horsepower more than the gas-only version. Admittedly, the plug-in features do make the 330e a bit heavier, and the battery trims the cargo space. However, these trade-offs seem worthwhile for many, considering the opportunity to drive a 3-series with an estimated 23-mile battery-powered range on a full charge.

BMW 530e

Just like the compact 330e, the mid-size BMW 530e plug-in hybrid claims a spot slightly above the 530i in the 5-series lineup. Sharing the 330e's robust 288-hp plug-in powertrain, the 530e boasts its own power-packed performance. The larger battery pack, although costing the 530e some trunk space compared to its solely gasoline-fueled counterparts, offers a notable EPA-rated electric driving range of 21 miles.

BMW X5 xDrive45e

If the plug-in powertrains driven by four-cylinder engines in the BMW 330e and 530e sedans aren't quite igniting your automotive passion, then perhaps the six-cylinder-based configuration propelling the gasoline-electric X5 xDrive45e will do the trick. This muscular setup cranks out a combined 389 horsepower, allowing the plug-in X5 to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in an impressive 4.7 seconds. Notably, the X5 xDrive45e strikes a balance by offering a substantial electric driving range. According to EPA estimates, this mid-size luxury SUV can cover 31 miles using battery power alone before the gasoline engine kicks in.

Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid

Determined to shine in the performance arena, the Cayenne E-Hybrid hits its mark. The blend of a turbocharged V-6 and an electric motor result in a robust 455 horsepower. The Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid takes it up a notch by teaming up a twin-turbo V-8 with an electric motor, achieving a commanding 670 horsepower in total. The Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid rockets from 0 to 60 mph in a jaw-dropping 3.2 seconds. The Cayenne Coupe also features the same plug-in-hybrid powertrains.

Porsche Panamera E-Hybrid

Like the Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid SUVs, the Panamera 4 E-Hybrid exudes sportiness. With a combined 455 horsepower, it accelerates rapidly, boasting a low center of gravity and responsive steering for an exhilarating driving experience. Craving more power? Porsche has your back. Choose the Panamera 4S E-Hybrid for a robust 552 horses. And if that's not enough, the Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid takes it up a notch with a peak output of 690 horsepower. What's even better, Porsche offers all three hybrid options in both the Panamera's fastback and wagon (Sport Turismo) body styles.

Volvo S60 and V60 Recharge

Want the most powerful variant of the Volvo S60 sedan or V60 wagon? Then you're going to need to choose the plug-in hybrid powertrain. Dubbed the Recharge, these PHEV Volvos offer an estimated 40 miles of electric-only driving range on a full charge. Both plug-in Volvos powertrains dole out 455 horsepower. The V60 Recharge, meanwhile, is strictly available in racy Polestar Engineered form (the S60 is also available in this guise).

Volvo S90 Recharge

The Volvo S90 Recharge adds plug-in power to the Swedish brand's mid-size sedan. Its 455-horsepower hybrid powertrain reigns as the most potent choice in the S90 lineup. This ample power translates to spirited acceleration, while the sedan's roomy rear seat allows passengers to stretch their legs.

Volvo XC60 Recharge

Consider the Volvo XC60 as the SUV counterpart to the S60 sedan and V60 wagon. As expected, it's also offered as the plug-in hybrid Recharge model. Boasting 455 horsepower, the XC60 Recharge stands out as the most commanding option within the XC60 lineup. For those in pursuit of handling that aligns with the Recharge's power, the spirited XC60 Recharge Polestar Engineered trim is worth the additional investment.

Volvo XC90 Recharge

Completing Volvo's selection of hybrids is the XC90. Without reiterating all the details about Volvo's robust 455-hp Recharge plug-in hybrid powertrain, it's worth noting that it delivers gratifying power and, under appropriate conditions, an estimated 36 miles of electric-only driving in the XC90 Recharge. With its three rows of seats, this mid-size Volvo SUV provides ample space to accommodate your entire family and, depending on its size, even a few friends for the journey.
