Background:

In our Service Literature, a vehicle is often referred to by its "type", not its "model".

For example: The S80 is type "184". You may also see the designation. For example: "P2X". This is referring to a platform type or vehicle family.








The charts will help to clarify the vehicle type and platform designations.
