Questions about V70 models V70-XC70


Presently own a 240. Been thinking about a 97 850 or a 98 or 99 V70. Need a little help with some of the models I've seen advertised.

I know what a GLT and turbo are. However, can someone tell me what a GTAS and ASR's are? I assume the "A" is for automatic and "GT" might be gran touring but can someone explain this to me?


Thanks all!

    Questions about V70 models V70-XC70

    Hey There,
    I i owned an '80 244DL, then an '82 245Gl that I drove until it seriously died a sudden death, loved that car. I have a '98 V70 ASR wagon that I love, but am thinking hard about a '01 T5 wagon. An ASR is a non-turbo Volvo, a GLT is a "light" turbo, and a T5 is a high pressure turbo. The transition was weird for me, I had my old ride for 13 years!
