    Understanding Volvo’s T designations: T5, T6, T8

    2025 Volvo XC60 T8 Plug-In Hybrid

    In Volvo vehicles, the "T" in designations like T5, T6, or T8 does not stand for "turbocharged" as some might assume; it actually refers to gasoline engines. Here’s what you need to know about these T-designated engines:

    Engine types:

    • T5: A 2.0L four-cylinder gasoline engine with turbocharging, producing around 250 horsepower.
    • T6: A 2.0L four-cylinder gasoline engine with twin-charging (both turbocharged and supercharged), generating about 316 horsepower.
    • T8: A plug-in hybrid powertrain that combines a twin-charged gasoline engine with an electric motor, offering around 400 horsepower.

    Key Differences:

    • Power output: Higher numbers (like T8) generally indicate more powerful configurations, with the T8 being the most powerful.

    Forced induction:

    • T5: Uses turbocharging.
    • T6: Combines turbocharging and supercharging (twin-charging).
    • T8: Adds electric propulsion to the twin-charged engine.

    Drivetrain options:

    • T5: Available in both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive.
    • T6: Typically only offered with all-wheel drive.
    • T8: Comes standard with electric all-wheel drive (eAWD).

    Fuel efficiency: The T5 generally offers better fuel efficiency compared to the T6, while the T8 provides the best efficiency due to its hybrid nature.

    It's important to note that Volvo’s engine naming convention has evolved over time, and these designations are part of their Drive-E family of propulsion systems, designed for optimal performance and environmental consideration.
