Battery and charging functions in the Volvo Cars app

In the Volvo Cars app you can find information on the car's battery and charging.

Limitations of the Hold function

In some situations, the plug-in hybrid's battery level is affected even though the Hold function is being used.

Charging continues when the car is fully charged

Under some circumstances, you may notice that your car continues to charge even after it is fully charged.

General information about range and battery

Your car's range is primarily related to the battery and your driving behaviour. External conditions, such as cold temperatures, can also have an influence. There are some things you can do to minimize the risk of damage to the battery and to improve the range, such as charging the car when parked in cold temperatures and keep the battery level within certain interval during long-term storage.
