These cars….

Without wishing to get into a row, the model designation is “D” rather than “D5” and this is what is recorded on the V5 etc.

I think this is such a car : https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/313787573...EAAOSw0U9htHWA

Note the rear badge simply says AWD

But the key point is that the car is exactly the same as previous 163 models sold as D5, there was never a period where Mk 1 XC90 diesel models were sold with different engine options (either by displacement or state of tune) unlike say XC70 & XC60, the choice (up until 2011 ish) was simply manual or geartronic.

And that's the answer to the OP's question - just regard them as a late model Euro 3 163 Geartronic.
