It actually isn't. Volvo has traditionally worked off of two-three drive trains and used them throughout their entire lineup. When they make a change, they transition quickly, just like they did with the push-pull super and turbo charging. If they make the commitment to going to with hybrid electric system, they will go that way quickly. Also, Volvo is Chinese owned, and they have mandates to go electric/hybrid, so they will move that way quickly to be in compliance with what they see as their largest market (China). All the head burying in the sand is so sad to watch, especially on the heels of the Alberta economy melting down as a result of the collapse of the price of oil. Keep ignoring the indicators of the changing global energy economy. It hurts only yourselves.
