What are the Volvo engine models?

Volvo uses the engine model B420T2, with a maximum horsepower of 250 HP, a maximum power of 184 KW, a maximum power speed of 5400-5700 rpm, and a maximum torque of 350 Nm. Volvo engines are imported and manufactured in Sweden. Currently, the domestically produced Asia-Pacific series engines are made in Volvo's Zhangjiakou factory in China. For daily maintenance of Volvo engines, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, causing various issues for the engine. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through, it may burst the filter or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass and carry contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from wear to form sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates properly but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
Oh, when it comes to Volvo's engine models, I've got plenty of experience, having driven for over a decade. Their current lineup is mainly based on the Drive-E platform, with common gasoline models like the T5 and T6, both 2.0-liter turbocharged engines that offer strong power and fuel efficiency. My family's XC60 is the T5 model, and it handles daily commutes effortlessly. There's also the hybrid series, such as the B5/B6 with a 48V mild hybrid system, which provides quick starts and is eco-friendly. The T8 Recharge is a plug-in hybrid that can run dozens of kilometers on pure electric power, saving a lot on fuel. Older models used diesel engines like the D4 and D5, which were quiet and powerful, but they're less common now due to environmental trends. New models are pushing electrification, like the XC40 Recharge pure electric version, which doesn't follow traditional engine naming. Overall, Volvo offers a wide range of engines, covering everything from economical to high-performance options. Generally, the higher the number in the model name, the higher the horsepower. For daily maintenance, it's recommended to check the oil and filters every 10,000 kilometers to ensure long engine life.
