The Frankfurt Motor Show will see Volvo reveal a pretty revolutionary plug-in hybrid car known as the ReCharge Concept. Basically, this vehicle is a revamped (and in many ways, I might add) Volvo C30 that comes complete with electric wheel motors and batteries which can be charged through an ordinary electrical outlet. A fully juiced up battery will be able to provide up to 62 miles of travel before the four-cylinder 1.6 Flexifuel engine kicks in to keep the battery charged up. Since plenty of people drive less than 60 miles in a single day, the ReCharge would make a great permanent electric car that possesses some pretty decent speed (how does 0-62mph in 9 seconds and a top speed of 100mph sound to you?)
