On the first day of the new year, I was pleasantly surprised that the 1.6 GDTI engine from Volvo has finally made its debut in Singapore in the form of the estate version of the S60, the V60. I decided to do some technical research on this

Both the engine and transmission is from Ford,

ie. Ford's Ecoboost engine and Powershift gearbox.

  • Pokemon Leaf Green version: A comprehensive summary
