⚠️ Volvo overview
Volvo Cars sells premium sedans, wagons, and SUVs in the United States with gasoline, mild hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and battery-electric powertrains. US lineup is increasingly electrified; historical diesel Volvos are rare imports. Misfuel events on gasoline and PHEV models follow Volvo VIDA tank and module procedures.

- Recharge BEV variants have no fuel tank
- Use DEF only in the DEF tank on diesel aftertreatment vehicles — never in the fuel tank
