Chip tuning for Volvo FMX D13C 500 500hp (368kW) 2500Nm ECU
Volvo FMX (I) D13C 500 500hp (368kW) 2500Nm — premium diesel engine of the commercial segment of the Geely Holding (с 2010) group (Швеция, 1927). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 500 to 570 hp (+70 hp, +14%) and torque from 2500 to 2887 Nm (+387 Nm).
Volvo is a Swedish premium manufacturer from Gothenburg, founded in 1927. Volvo has been owned by China's Geely Holding since 2010. Volvo is historically known for its engineering-led approach to safety and the environment. Volvo uses its own VEA (Volvo Engine Architecture) diesels. The Volvo D5 (legacy V6) was an iconic premium-segment engine of the 2000s. The factory calibration on Volvo diesels is conservative, leaving headroom for Stage 1.
On pre-2017 Volvos, Stage 1 goes in over OBD without Bench. The Volvo community in Scandinavia and Eastern Europe has a large pool of ready-made Stage files. Within Geely Holding, ECUs are partly shared with Polestar and some Geely models. Top Volvo Polestar Engineered engines sit at the power ceiling of the Swedish premium segment.
