Always start in pure option - vjenne - 01-20-2025

Since a few weeks I drive a '23 model XC90. Great car. But 1 major issue. I really want to drive electric as much as possible. But the car defaults to Hybrid mode so I have to get through the settings menu(which is very slow directly after boot) to set it to pure everytime I get in the car. Currently it's around 0 degrees celsius outside and I notice that the car, in Hybrid mode, wants to start driving with the petrol engine running.  I thing that's a shame because most of my routes are very short which I could easily drive electric.

After some googling I found that the hybrid volvo's in the US have the option to always start in pure:
   

Now I'm wondering if it is possible with Orbit to change some settings to the US market, to perhaps get this option also available in my car. I think a lot of people will be very interested if we could manage this...
Thanks
