*Alternativa drivlinor* står som rubrik, underrubriker *Hybridteknik* , *dieselteknik*, *RME* och *gas*, alltså motorer för olika typer av bränslen. Men Volvo kanske har missuppfattat det hela...

Explanation:
You are translating from a translation!
'GPL' was left untranslated!
Original source: French
GPL > gaz de pétrole liquéfié > liquefied petroleum gas > LPG
The "powertrains" is probably a mistranslation.

Request original source text from your customer!

There are no such animals!!!

Reference: från franska motorisation?

Reference information:
"Motorisation" kan såväl avse motorn specifikt, som drivlinan som helhet

Example sentence(s):
  • une nouvelle motorisation essence, le 1.2 16V 75 ch, n'émettant que 139g CO2/km
