No, it depends on a lot of things. I know for fact, that the S40 and V50 AWD come with 320 mm. The C30 T5 comes on 300 mm. The C70 T5 on 320 mm. And even with other engines it is everything else than clear... Sometimes a 2.0D has 278 mm others have 300 mm. There really isn't much logical sense in Volvos brake system choice amongst the models...
