List Of Volvo Engines - Volvo Diesel Car

Volvo Cars has a long reputation as a maker of inline (or straight) engines. This list of Volvo engines gives an overview of available internal combustion engines.

When Volvo started in 1927, they ordered their engines from the engine manufacturer Penta in Skövde. The first engine was the inline four-cylinder side-valve 28 horsepower (21 kW; 28 PS) Type DA. In 1931, Volvo acquired a majority of the Penta stock, and in 1935, Penta became a subsidiary of Volvo. For the engines used by Volvo Trucks, see List of Volvo Trucks engines.

Previous owner, Ford Motor Company, allowed Volvo to continue to design their own engines, with a new-generation straight-six engine introduced in 2006. More recently the VEA program has been launched. VEA engines are branded as "Drive-E" in marketing.

Naming

82 volvo turbo diesel for sale - SOLD! for $1800 Background: This started off as a small project in 2009? or 10, I cant remember. I turned up the stock pump as high as it would go "till it ran away" and drove it like that...

To name their engines, Volvo has used:

• 1955â€"1985 â€" four or five characters
• 1985â€"1994 â€" five or six characters
• 1993â€"1994 â€" six to eight characters

Generally, the following naming scheme is used:

• Either B for Bensin (petrol/gasoline engines) or D for diesel engines
• Two digits for engine displacement (moved after number of cylinders from 1993)
• One for valves per cylinder (not found before 1985)
• One to three characters for other engine features

In 2010 Volvo changed their engine branding nomenclature so that it is independent of engine size and number of cylinders. The letter "D" designates diesel and "T" petrol. Letters are followed by a number that dictate the level of power. The table below list the lower limit power required for each emblem in 2010.
