 Volvo / Dynaudio Audio System Upgrade
Volvo's "Accessories Bulletin" for "High Fidelity Speaker Upgrades" lists replacement drivers for the 850 and 70-series vehicles, but the prices are not in line with the expected costs of Dynaudio drivers, so I doubt that it refers to anything other than the standard US-spec drivers.

 Test Drive Notes: Volvo S70 1998
I think they just got bored...and since changing the shape of Volvos more frequently than once every three decades is off-limits, they played with the only thing they could: the name.
Perhaps the biggest news is that all-wheel drive is now an option with this car, which should prove very popular in the great frozen northern U.S. It adds about another $5,000 to the cost of the car, but it gives you the safety of a Volvo and the on-road utility of a sport utility vehicle.
Volvos are not known for their great reliability, but they are known for their incredible longevity.
