Powertrain Options and Availability
Three dual-overhead-cam inline 5-cylinder engines went into S70 and V70 models: a nonturbocharged 2.4-liter version for base cars; a turbocharged edition for the XC, GLT, and AWD wagons; and a high-performance turbo 2.3-liter in the T5 and R. Base and T5 models could have 5-speed manual shift or 4-speed automatic, but others were automatic only.
