In a Volvo, powertrain and chassis interact to strike the perfect balance between excitement 
and stability. And to further enhance the experience, additional technologies are available.

Start/Stop technology with brake energy regeneration 

To further reduce fuel consumption and CO

2

 emissions with 

up to 8% when driving in the city, the DRIVe turbodiesel 
 features Volvo’s Start/Stop technology. Once the engine is 
warmed up and the car comes to a standstill (for example at  
a traffic light) where you put the gear in neutral and release 
the clutch, the engine automatically shuts off. And instantly 
as you press the clutch pedal, the engine restarts and you’re 
on the go. An extra battery ensures that all infotainment  
and comfort systems will function as usual even with the 
engine shut off. What’s more, intelligent brake kinetic energy 
regeneration further optimises fuel efficiency and performance 
in all driving conditions. As soon as you brake or release  
the accelerator while a gear is engaged, the alternator 
harnesses the car’s kinetic energy and feeds it into the battery 
to reduce fuel consumption with an extra 2–3%. And when 
you accelerate, the alternator decouples to free the engine 
for maximum performance when you need it. The Start/Stop 
system can be deactivated with a push of a button in the 
centre console and is active between 0° and 30° C.

Chassis/Transmission

Chassis

The wide wheelbase and the advanced chassis promote balanced handling and a 
high level of comfort. The rigid body enables the Multi-link rear and McPherson 
spring strut front suspension to cope predictably and consistently with all types of 
roads. The front and rear suspensions also interact to provide stable braking and 
smooth steering. In a curve, the rear wheels have a slight steering facility for added 
stability and steering response. Including lower springs, there’s also a sports chassis 
that lowers your Volvo by 20 mm and makes it even more dynamic and fun to drive.

Five- or six-speed manual transmission

The five- or six-speed all-synchromesh manual gearbox offers fluid and precise 
gear selection. The sixth gear further improves comfort and fuel economy on the 
motorway. The smooth action of the clutch assures that you move off with confidence 
and grace.

Five- or six-speed Geartronic automatic transmission

For the best of two worlds, there’s the five- or six-speed Geartronic – a responsive 
automatic that’s ideal for relaxed driving, tough conditions or towing. This also 
allows manual gear shifting so you can maintain a lower gear to bring up the revs 
or for the added assistance of engine braking. A special winter setting makes it 
easier to move off and maintain grip on slippery surfaces.

Engines

2.0F Flexifuel four-cylinder E85 bioethanol engine  
(145 hp)

This new state-of-the-art 2.0F Flexifuel engine doesn’t 
 compromise with performance, comfort and environmental 
care. When driving on E85 bioethanol, the net contribution of 
fossil carbon dioxide is considerably lower compared to petrol. 
As driver you’ll enjoy the same quick engine response and 
relaxed engine character as of a corresponding petrol engine. 
The possibility of filling up with E85, petrol or any mix of those 
fuels offers superior flexibility. You fill up bioethanol in the 
same fuel tank as for the petrol. The engine adapts instantly  
to the fuel mix. For cold weather, you can add an electric 
engine heater.

2.0, four-cylinder petrol engine (145 hp)
1.6, four-cylinder petrol engine (100 hp)

Matching perfectly with the dynamics of your Volvo, the high-efficiency 
four-cylinder engine is an inspiring source of power. Smooth operation, 
sharp response and low weight contribute to a sporty yet harmonious 
drive. Its variable inlet manifold provides a high level of torque throughout 
the rev range. What’s more, its efficiency allows you to enjoy low fuel 
consumption in all driving conditions.

T5, five-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine (230 hp)

For a truly sporty driving experience, there’s the high-performance  
230 hp five-cylinder T5 petrol engine. This smooth source of energy 
boasts a turbocharger and variable inlet and exhaust valve timing, 
delivering an exceptionally quick and powerful response throughout the 
entire rev range. Complies with stringent emission standards, such as 
California’s ULEV II.

D4, five-cylinder turbodiesel (177 hp)
D3, five-cylinder turbodiesel (150 hp)

The all-new five-cylinder D4 and D3 turbodiesels take performance, 
fuel efficiency and refinement to entirely new levels. Featuring 
the latest turbo and Piezo high-pressure injector technology, 
these inspiring five-cylinder state-of-the-art powerplants will 
give you access to supreme torque (max 400 or 350 Nm) 
across the rev range. Smooth running characteristics and low 
noise levels further enhance the experience. Short stroke  
and reduced friction add to both responsive, sporty engine 
characteristics and high fuel efficiency. And for even higher 
fuel efficiency, there’s the 150 hp D3 with its 5.0 l/100 km and 
134 g CO

2

 per km. To further optimise fuel efficiency in all 

conditions, these engines also feature Volvo’s CO

2

 reducing 

brake energy re-generation technology. A maintenance-free 
particle filter effectively reduces soot particles in exhaust 
gases and advanced emission control contributes to low 
nitrogen oxide levels – these engines already comply with 
stringent, upcoming Euro 5 exhaust emission requirements.

D2, four-cylinder turbodiesel (115 hp)
DRIVe, four-cylinder turbodiesel engine (109 hp)

Take advantage of the benefits of supreme fuel economy  
(3.9 l/100 km) and ultra-low CO

2

 emissions (104 g/km) without 

any trade-offs in comfort, safety or performance. Volvo’s 
1.6-litre turbodiesel DRIVe features advanced Start/Stop 
technology and brake energy regeneration. Helping you to 
save precious fuel drops in stop-and-go city traffic, the engine 
shuts off when you put the gear in neutral at a standstill and 
instantly restarts at the press of the clutch pedal. A gearshift 
indicator helps you drive the most efficient way. Advanced 
diesel engine technology such as common rail direct injection 
and variable turbine geometry provides high torque across  
the rev range to assure a rewarding driving experience in  
all conditions. 

The all-new 115 hp/270 Nm all-aluminium D2 turbodiesel is 
further refined with for example new valvetrain technology, 
high-precision Piezo injectors, brake energy charging and light 
weight materials to meet the highest demands on energy 
efficiency and performance. The engine’s low weight contributes 
to low fuel consumption and well-balanced road behaviour. The 
115 hp engine is mated to a new manual six-speed gearbox. It 
is also available without Start/Stop technology, which means 
somewhat higher fuel consumption but CO

2

 emissions still 

below 120 g/km. All Volvo turbodiesels meet strict environmental 
demands and feature a particle filter that effectively reduces 
soot particles in exhaust gases. The D2 engine complies with 
the stringent Euro 5 emission requirements.
