Volvo has revealed an R-Design version of its V60 Plug-in Hybrid.

Extra features on the top-end sports trim level include 18-inch alloys, a rear diffuser, and sports suede and leather seats.

Prices start at £51,675, excluding the Government’s £5000 plug-in car grant.  

The V60 Plug-in Hybrid is powered by a 215hp 2.4-litre five-cylinder engine and a 70hp electric motor, which allows for four-wheel drive and the ability to travel on electricity alone for 31 miles following a full charge, with official figures of 155.2mpg and 48g/km.
