Powertrain Options and Availability
In their first season, the S40 sedan and V40 wagon had a turbocharged dual-overhead-cam four-cylinder engine that produced 160 horsepower, driving a four-speed automatic transmission. Engine output rose to 165 horsepower in 2001, when a five-speed automatic transmission replaced the four-speed unit. Power was up again in '03, this time to 170 horsepower.
