From what I understand further; the new hybrid twin engine V60 D5 will use the current standard 2400 CC 5 cylinder D5 engine detuned to 163bhp (so in old money terms that is old D4 spec as seen in XC60 !!!) and is called D5 so as to be a peg down from the D6, the D6 being the same concept using the same D5 2400 cc 5 cylinder engine albeit with more power.

Probably done because the D6 is far far too expensive and not been a sales hit, plus Volvo can also get rid of current 2400cc D5 engines, (or rather all the bits they have to make the D5 engines - for those that will question whether there are 1000's of D5 engines sitting on the shelf waiting to be used)
