Volvo begins producing V60 diesel plug-in hybrid, claims a world first

Volvo begins producing V60 diesel plugin hybrid, claims a world first

There are hybrids. There are diesel hybrids. But the diesel plug-in hybrid is still virtually unknown — enough so that Volvo claims it’s breaking new ground by starting production of the V60 diesel plug-in it’s been preparing since 2011. The company still plans to manufacture only small numbers of the wagon at its Gothenburg factory, but it’s clear all that talk in Geneva of 124MPG fuel economy and a 285HP combined powertrain has convinced enough early adopters; Volvo has already sold out of the 2013 model’s tiny 1,000-car batch, and it expects to build 4,000 to 6,000 per year for the 2014 generation. While potential buyers who’ve been waiting for a test drive will no doubt be disappointed, the Americans of the bunch can at least take comfort in knowing that there’s an eventual US launch in the cards.

Lindsay Lohan Talks About Pulling Out Of Barbara Walters Interview On ‘The Tonight Show’ (VIDEO)

Lindsay Lohan is on the promotional tour for her Elizabeth Taylor biopic “Liz & Dick.” She dropped by “The Tonight Show,” and while there she addressed her reasons for bailing on her scheduled interview with Barbara Walters on “The View.” Well, sort of.

“The timing wasn’t right right now,” Lohan said. “I love her. I’m a big fan of Barbara Walters. I met her when I was very young. And so, when it’s right, she knows she’ll be the first person I sit down with.”

So she didn’t really give much of a reason, nor has she talked to Walters directly about it. Speculation was that her new PR team feared Walters would ask probing questions about the starlet’s ongoing legal troubles and family drama.

Tattoo artist has seen a lot of ink in her days, but Kevin’s tattoo was easily one of the most offensive she had ever seen. It was of a burning American flag, which he’d gotten back in college one night after high. He thought it was awesome at the time, until he got a wake-up call. He came to “Tattoo Nightmares” to get something he could be proud of.

“Kevin explained the moment that opened his eyes. “I was walking home one day and this homeless guy was like, ‘Dude, what the f*ck? Listen, if you went down to the VA and you saw the people who had come home, what they’ve given up.'” he said, adding, “There’s a lot of baggage that comes with a tattoo like that.”
