In Burlingame, CA, there's a lot of variety, and plenty of people who find hybrid vehicles appealing. With so many to choose from, it now becomes a matter of what you're getting out of the hybrid, and with the Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Hybrid, you get everything you could want out of a SUV, along with efficiency, even the kind that can be powered by other vehicles.
