It is actually a Yamaha V8 and it came only with a sixspeed geartronic autobox and 315hp 440Nm@2100rpm. It's an aluminum casted engine fitted transversely. Ford didn't had a V8 on the shelf that was compact and light enough to fit the enginebay of the XC90 and went to Yamaha for help. 75% of V8 sales went to north amerika.
