Yes, one of the Volvo sales person told me it will be launched in Malaysia before Raya. Not sure how true though!

I heard yest that one unit of Powershift model is in KL from Singapore. The spec is 2.0cc with 145hp and 185 torque. 0-100 in 9.8s or something like that. I think the price would not be more than the current S40 2.4. The launch date has been postponed to just after Raya though!

Our story on the new S40 2.0 Powershift in the Emzine here: S40 gets Powershift twin clutch transmission
Effective today, the 2.0 replaces the 2.4i, which is now phased out of the Malaysian market.
