Volvo XC60 T8 - Day 152

I bought the Volvo five months ago. Partly due to our trip to Lond0n in early March, I have only driven 4,817 miles.

At this point, I have only filled up with gas three times. This includes November 23, December 29 and January 30. Topping off the battery at a free Volta charger on work days, I am commuting almost exclusively as an electric vehicle.

Most of the gas was burned running the Volvo as a hybrid on longer trips. This included a weekend in South Shore Lake Tahoe in November, a day in Marin visiting my sisters in December, a trip to the East Bay in January and an afternoon in Santa Rosa visiting Tomasin in February.

I continue to be very pleased with the SUV. I love the Carplay integration with my iPhone. I use it mostly to play podcasts and run Waze. The integration of Waze into the dashboard screen is fantastic. I have been using the adaptive cruise control and pilot assist off and on in the commute and on the longer trips.
