Volvo S80 - Manual

ENGINES AND TRANSMISSIONS

The Volvo S80 offers a choice of five

powerful, highly efficient petrol and

diesel engines. Ample power is

available across a wide range of

engine speeds, resulting in effortless

response and excellent flexibility in

any driving situation. Transverse

mounting ensures good balance and

greater interior space.

Five cylinder engines

Three five cylinder engines are available

ranging from 140 bhp to 170 bhp.

In each, as the power distribution is

spread across a wide operating range,

driving is relaxed, with acceleration

brisk and rapid even at lower speeds.

The smooth, quiet running 2.5 litre

140 bhp turbo diesel uses direct

injection technology. In addition to

offering good acceleration (0-62mph

in 11 seconds) it also delivers highly

competitive fuel economy.

Six cylinder engines

Where even more power and

refinement are required, there are two

in-line six cylinder engines to consider.

A 2.9 litre 204 bhp engine guarantees

smooth capable cruising and swift,

safe overtaking.

First Volvo gave you the T5, and then

T4. Now Volvo proudly presents T6,

the most powerful engine Volvo have

ever produced. Available only in SE

specification, this 2.8 litre, six cylinder

twin-turbo engine harnesses an

exhilarating 272 bhp that can take you

from 0-62 mph in a mere 7.2 seconds.

But as you'd expect from Volvo, power is

never provided without control; like all

S80 variants the T6 comes with Stability

and Traction Control (STC) as standard.

Volvo S80 engine choices

2.4 litre (140 bhp)

Optimum cost and economy with smooth, refined five

cylinder performance.

2.4 litre (170 bhp)

Wide torque range and good fuel economy make this engine ideal

for regular towing and load carrying.

2.5 litre D (140 bhp) Direct Injection Diesel Engine

Superbly quiet, refined and drives like a petrol engine yet delivers

diesel economy.

2.9 litre (204 bhp)

Six cylinder power and refinement for effortless cruising.

T6 SE (272 bhp)

Awesome sporting performance.

Transmissions

For most engines, a choice of five speed

manual or four speed automatic

transmissions is available. For the T6

engine, the Geartronic transmission

offers two gearboxes in one: an

intelligent automatic that 'learns' your

driving style, and manual for active

driving pleasure. The T6 SE

is only available with Geartronic.

The 272 bhp engine in the

Volvo S80 T6 SE has two

small turbochargers for

swift response.

The four-speed Geartronic

automatic transmission can also

be shifted manually, if you want

a more active driving style.

You can shift up by pushing

the lever away from you and

down by pulling it towards you

(Volvo S80 T6 SE only).

Variable camshaft timing on

the inlet or exhaust side gives

the engines consistent pulling

power at all speeds - as well as

cleaner emissions.

The three-way catalytic converter

with twin electrically-heated

ambda sensors reduces the

evels of carbon monoxide,

nitrogen oxides and

hydrocarbons in the exhaust

emissions by an average of 95%.

The Volvo S80 is the first car

n modern times to have a

transverse in-line

six-cylinder engine.

The Urban fuel consumption figure is based on typical city driving, including starting the car from cold.

The Extra Urban figure is based on typical motorway driving and cruising.

The Combined figure averages the consumption across both cycles.

These results do not express or imply any guarantee of the fuel

consumption of a particular car as there are inevitable differences

between individual cars of the same model. Additionally driving

style, traffic conditions, as well as the age and mileage and

standard of maintenance will affect a car's fuel consumption.
