Volvo Powertrain

The Volvo Group now has common engine platforms that fulfill the latest environmental requirements, a more focused research and development program, more efficient production and a more focused supplier structure.

The driveline, which consists of the engine, gearbox and the driveshaft or driveshafts, is often described as the heart of a vehicle. Volvo Powertrain is responsible for the development and production of heavy engines, gearboxes and driveshafts.

Powertrain is also a substantial manufacturer of heavy gearboxes in-house, with production in Köping, Sweden and Hagerstown, Maryland, in the US.

Since its introduction in 2002, Volvo's internally produced AMT gearbox has grown rapidly in volume at the cost of manual gearboxes. In practice, it is the industry standard in Europe and was recently launched in North America.
